What awaits me?
Starting your own business is a brave step. With my work, I pursue the approach that you can build and apply new knowledge and skills on the subject of starting a business. To do this, we always clarify all your questions and define your path for the start very clearly. It is also important to minimize your risk by creating a feasible business plan and a realistic financial planning. Feel free to use the free seminar for this.
Despite this, it is not only about your protection. Rather, I also want to support you to prove your courage and skill and to be a role model for others.
Do I have to write a business plan?
It is always recommended to write a business plan, because it usually serves you in 2 ways. The first way is self-reflection. By writing the business plan, you can make all the points clear to yourself (and to your team, if necessary). It helps you to plan your sales in such a way that you can exist economically safe and in the long term. So you additionally find out for yourself exactly where your limits are and when you should stop in order not to lose money.
In addition, it is a prerequisite for the start-up grant or financing with a bank.
Note: If you also see a business model canvas as a “business plan on a sheet of paper”, please be careful. It may sound very tempting, but it usually only works in Hollywood. However, the canvas does contain some important points. So feel free to use it as preparation, but not for applying for grants or loans.
Overall, a business and financial plan will help you avoid having to figure out all the risks after you start and very likely lose money in the process. In other words, the more detailed you are in your preparation, the less risk you will have to take.
Do I need commercial skills?
No, you don’t need to. For one thing, it depends on the complexity of your business, and for another, you can always call in experts. This applies not only to accounting, but also to legal issues, insurance, loans, marketing and much more. The important thing is to find the right partner and calculate so that these costs are covered. You can also learn which points are important in a seminar for start-ups.
