Module 5c: Business Definition

Throughout this course, you already have been, and will continue to be, developing all of the components of a sound business plan. Below are questions that relate to particular aspects of defining the business.

Instructions: Review each question thoughtfully. Jot down what comes into your mind first. If you don't know how to answer, skip that question and move on to the next. Areas left blank will identify issues where further thought and the advice of experienced counselors or consultants may help. There are no right or wrong answers. Think about your answers and talk them over with someone else - your partner, mentor or counselor. Using this as a basis for discussion can often uncover other issues affecting the business development process.
