Pain in the business plan? Help is here–and it’s free

For many new business owners, the business plan can be the most daunting step in starting a new venture. There are endless resources to help entrepreneurs on their journey, but without the proper guidance it can be confusing and difficult to find your way. Startup Alleghenies provides free one-on-one coaching to help local business owners navigate the ins and outs of starting a business, including building a business plan to fit your goals and needs. Here’s what entrepreneurs have to say about Startup Alleghenies’ guidance!

“Everyone was very kind and helpful. I always got quick responses about things, I even received help putting together a business plan, something I’d never done.”

“I think the most helpful thing was business direction. When you’re a startup, you have to navigate and wear a bunch of different hats. My coach helped me sort out which direction is the priority. You are not alone. They are ready to help navigate all the different aspects.”

“Startup Alleghenies helped with a business plan and financials — I was able to define what I had to make to survive as a business.”

“They got another organization to help me in writing my business plan. That in itself is probably where people don’t get past. You should have a business plan, but it’s such an ordeal to have to go to the bank. One of the biggest tasks.”

“They have been instrumental in helping with my business planning and financial development of the new venture.”

“We worked with my business coach to create a business plan. I had the info, but he helped me make it usable. The experience was such a pleasant one, that I wish I had done the whole thing through them. Definitely a very pleasant experience. After that, it was clear they thought we had a viable business and good fit for funding. Our coach came into picture and said he would help with the business plan. He made it evident that we had everything that we needed to move forward. Never had to wonder where we were at. He kept me in the loop the whole time.”
