Why Do I Need Help With My Business Plan or Marketing?

You may be asking yourself “Why do I need help with my business plan or marketing? I can just do it myself” Often the answer is simple, either you don't have time or don't have the knowledge to create an effective plan or how to begin implementation to achieve the results you’re looking for.

The Importance of Start and Small Business Planning

Tens of thousands of small businesses start each year in the United States. Many of these businesses are started by hard-working people who risk everything to follow their passions and have limited options if the business fails. Unfortunately, 50% of those start up businesses fail within the first 12 months of operation. The Small Business Administration (SBA) attributes lack of planning and preparation, which directly correlates to having a comprehensive business plan.

How Conrad Partners Is Different?

Many other firms will ask a standard list of questions, produce a cookie cutter business plan or marketing strategy and then collect a check. In the short run this might sound like a good option, you get a business plan in a couple of weeks without having to break a sweat. However, this often leads to you having to do a lot of the work. You may even expierence "sticker shock" when you find out the cost involved for them to implement their “action plan”. At Conrad Partners we do things a little different. We work hand-in-hand with every client to provide analysis, create an action plan and implement. We provide support and help through the entire process and will continue to help.
