From the SBA, here is a step by step, self paced tutorial on writing a business plan. A business plan is a must for new and start-up businesses, though often we, as entrepreneurs, just don't have the time. But, I promise you, if you want your business to be an effective player in the long term, a business plan will help you greatly. If nothing else, it will help you to take a good hard look at your competitive environment, and let you start developing strategies to combat obstacles. Call it your business mental armor... but do it.
