Marketing Plan or Business Plan first? Yeah, got the product. But business is a process - at least for me. I think most businesses try more than 1 way to succeed. While I've previously worked on marketing, and even created bplans for this and others, I've been working on a more traditional marketing plan. And my purpose is to focus more on marketing planning. I don't need 3 years of sales projections - all I have is a theory of what might work at all right now. It's like an awakening that what I should be working on is marketing planning. We'll see what works. |

Marketing Plan or Business Plan first? After the "not either/or" is sounds like a strong vote for the business plan. |

Marketing Plan or Business Plan first? Of course. But the whole business plan swings on whether you can make sales. Companies with good business plans keep changing their marketing efforts until they find something that works. How many famous companies haven't turned a profit (yet)? Way too many forecasts being made based on a marketing hypothesis. Maybe we should focus more on marketing until we find what works. (As a finance guy I'm not knocking the BP, but 3 years of profit forecasts, really!) |

How to choose debt or equity funding Thanks, and I realize that some companies can get over-indebted, but so long as the debt is providing benefit and growth that supports the debt service, it is helping. You never get 100%. My concern is the amount of debt the founders would have to personally be liable for if the venture fails. But I don't want that to make it an equity decision at any price. I'm just looking for help on how to decide. |
