Admit it, writing a business plan can be overwhelming for many new entrepreneurs. The thought of writing a plan is daunting and they don't know where to start. The truth is that most businesses that fail, do so because they had no plan for success.

A solid plan is one of the most critical components to making your business successful. Clients of TLS Business Consulting receive the benefit of a professional writer who knows what information investors want to see and the critical perspective of a financial professional who can craft a business plan in an easy to read format.

Personal Service:
TLS Business Consulting focuses on helping small-to-mid sized companies achieve success. We know how difficult it is when you are first starting out and want to help you through that challenging process. We pride ourselves on the personalized service we provide to each of our clients.

Every client receives personalized service directly from me -- not an assistant or junior associate. I work directly with every client to understand your background, your business idea and your vision for the future. Since you will be the one to implement the finished plan, it is critical that you understand the plan and believe in the finished product.

We'll work together to gather the basic information for your plan. Once I have a view of your business I will write a convincing, investor friendly business plan customized to your specific business. Through an active dialog, we'll develop a strong foundation on which you can build your business and maximize its potential. As we develop the plan, we'll put together a road-map to help you navigate many of the pitfalls that you may face when starting your own business and put together a plan for success that fits your business.

Teamwork:
The development of a successful comprehensive business plan takes a lot of teamwork. To achieve a solid finished product, we'll work together to combine your overall vision for the business with my business planning and writing experience so that the finished business plan truly represents your business. To help achieve this result, I play the roles of your harshest critic and business coach. By pointing out both your business' weaknesses and strengths, the finished product will be a comprehensive business plan that can stand up to the critical eye of the most sophisticated potential investor. Together we'll work through any weak points in your plan and provide solutions so you'll have the answers before the potential investor can even ask the question.

Timely Service:
There is a critical balance during the business planning process between quality and time. Because time is often short with many business ideas, we closely monitor the clock while striving to provide a quality finished product. I closely manage this balance by working with a select number of clients at any point in time.

How soon will your plan be ready? It really depends on several factors. The main issues will be the amount of research to be conducted and how quickly you answer my questions. At the start of the project, we'll determine a time line that meets your schedule and I'll strive to stick to that time line throughout the planning process.

Confidentiality:
Trust is a critical component in selecting a writer / management consultant for your business plan. At the start of each project we'll each sign a service agreement. This service agreement includes a non-disclosure clause that specifies that I will not disclose any of your business information without your express written approval to release your information.
