Business Planning: Start With These Details

October 29, 2021 by Richard Gershberg

Are you a business owner? Do you have plans on starting a business in the near future? Are you aware of the steps you can take to protect yourself and your business, both now and down the road?

There’s more to business planning than meets the eye, and that’s why it’s so important to take the right steps, ask and answer the right questions early in the process. That way, you can avoid mistakes that may cost you time and money in the future.

Business Planning: Start With These Details

Focus your attention on the Following:

  • Choosing the right business structure: Is an LLC best for you? How about a partnership, S-Corp or C-Corp? There are multiple business structures to choose from, each with a variety of pros and cons.
  • Create a business plan: Create a business plan to guide you through the early days of your start-up. This may seem tedious, but it’s an important step in putting you on the right track.
  • Create a succession plan: What will happen to your business if something happens to you? What will happen if you become disabled? How about if you pass away? Do you need a Partnership or Stockholders Agreement? A succession plan ensures that the right person steps in when you’re no longer willing or able to operate your business.

Starting a business can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. However, if you don’t take the right steps in regard to business planning, it can cause unnecessary stress.

If you have questions or concerns about business planning, start by working through the details above. From there, you’ll better understand what comes next. Don’t hesitate to contact our law firm for professional guidance and advice.
