There is no other way to secure success in your business like having a rock solid business plan, it works like wide fire, it will help you to check and balance a lot of things and it helps you to stay focus always.

Business plan s a lay down process of how you want your business to go, the pattern you want it to follow, it will help you not to spend unnecessarily, and it can be one of the best motivation to show you how much you've accomplished in your business.

Always set up a business plan before you invest your money on any business in the world. 

3.  Start Up Funds/Capital : 


This is the fuel of your business, without which you can not move, and most of the businesses today are always striving with this fund and capital issue because they fail to draw out a plan in the first place to determine how much they need, they will spend and how much will be enough to kick-start their business.
