Wise Business Plans: Strong Planning Key That Opens Trillion-dollar Lending Market
Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) March 24, 2014 -- "We actually saw more people looking to plan carefully before making the leap into a new venture when lending tightened," said Joseph Ferriolo, director of Wise Business Plans, which provides planning and other business-building services to companies around the globe. "The SBA not only recommends but requires a carefully crafted business plan, and describes it as a 'living roadmap to success.' This emphasis on good planning is nothing new, but in a recovery economy, it can make or break a bid for funding."
Forbes.com seems to agree, listing "You don’t need or want investors or a loan" as one of the very few reasons an entrepreneur might not create a business plan. It follows, of course, that those who are seeking a loan need to have a plan in hand, especially in a still-cautious lending market, said Ferriolo.
"While the atmosphere has lightened a bit at credit unions and banks, venture capital investments are still stagnant," he said, citing the SBA report, which describes the venture capital market as "relatively flat." "Getting a slice of that pie still requires making an effort to wow potential investors."
Ferriolo said he's evidence of that increased effort among his clients, who have encouraged the company to branch out into presentation services that complement and highlight key points in their business plans.
"They've told us they need to stand out from the crowd," he said. "We think that's smart... and we think it's working."
