Like many works of art, a business begins on a piece
of paper.
They would be an entrepreneur may sit down and
design a small electronics plant to meet customer
needs and make a fine product, but without money
the plan may never become a reality.
This twin problem fascinates entrepreneurs, perhaps
more so than any other part of launching a new
venture.
This fascination may stem from a romantic view of
how some multimillion-dollar businesses have begun
on shoestrings of just a few thousand dollars.
Before they can estimate how much money they
need, entrepreneurs must know what they plan to do,
unfortunately, and many entrepreneurs do not, often
because they have failed to work out business plans.
