A key to starting and building a successful business is planning. Sometimes, a business plan is required, but it’s not always the answer to creating a successful business. Sometimes, you need to think lean.
In this session, SCORE Mentor David Terrell will walk you through a Lean Canvas to help you create a “blueprint” of your business. He will provide practical tips and tools and teach you how to:
- Determine the key categories of starting, testing and growing your business
- Identify your target customers and what you need to do to get them to buy from you
- Recognize your customers’ problems and how your product or service will solve them
- Communicate your value propositions that set you apart from your competition
- Test your solutions and get valuable feedback
- Determine your cost structure, runway and revenue streams
- Monitor key metrics to determine your business’s initial and ongoing success
The SCORE Business Learning Center (SBLC) provides aspiring and existing small business owners the business strategies and tactics needed to make sound decisions and achieve greater levels of success.
Writing a business plan can be daunting, but the Business Model Canvas makes the process easier.
