“IT” is such a common term that most forget that
it really means “information technology”. The reason for an IT department or
consultant is to ensure that technology systems operate smoothly and easily for
the end user, and cost effectively for the company. Easy? Not by a long shot.
But that is why your services are so desperately needed.
KEY CONSIDERATION FOR AN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY BUSINESS
PLAN
Odds are that your services will focus on niche
industries, perhaps in retail or accounting or legal or manufacturing. Whatever
the niche market is, THAT is where your growth needs to be. Everyone assumes
that IT will grow; but not every niche will grow equally.
STRONGEST ADVANTAGE IN YOUR IT BUSINESS PLAN
This is one of the very major growth areas in
business over the next few decades. Position yourself right here, and you are
destined for a very lucrative career. The key is to really define that market.
Are you going after the small business market? large company projects?
government projects? projects based on a specific technology? Because there is
so much that you could go after, finding your niche shouldn't be difficult.
It is that flexibility in defining your market
niche that makes your business so fundable.
STRONGEST DISADVANTAGE IN YOUR IT BUSINESS PLAN
Few finance people understand the implications
of the business that you are entering. Don't assume that, because your business
has the word "technology" in it, you are guaranteed funding. You've got a better
crack at it than most. But you still need a strong, clear presentation to get
someone to write that check.
OVERCOMING THE DISADVANTAGES WITH YOUR BUSINESS PLAN
FOR IT CONSULTANTS
Prove that you have been successful in your
information technology business.
Proving your qualifications is more important
here than in many business areas. Detail your educations, your training, your
job assignments that pertain to this business. List awards you have won,
articles you have authored, commendations you have received.
In short, picture yourself as the outstanding
success that you are. This is not a time to be modest. You've earned the respect
of the industry, so show it off.
And, as a guru already, there are probably
already information technology consulting projects that you have taken on,
perhaps even completed. The more real accomplishment you can demonstrate before
ever talking with a finance person, the better off you are. Make your
information technology business plan work to show off your talent.
Being The Pro for the Job is what Makes It Work
Don't go after the international jobs unless
you are truly qualified. And conversely, don't limit yourself to “local retail”
jobs if you are qualified for bigger assignments.
Fit your qualifications to the type of business
you are looking to fund.
There is one exception: If you are on the far
end of your career, take your skills and use them to create a small information
technology consulting business. (“Small” does not mean less money. It just means
fewer employees.) Lots and lots of small businesses will appreciate your years
of experience.
HOW MUCH FUNDING WILL YOUR INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
BUSINESS PLAN NEED?
What kind of business do you really want? A one
person business? A hundred person business? The hundred person business won't
necessarily make you richer than the one person business. It is all a matter of
choice.
Then, as with any business, sit down and run
the numbers.
YOUR LIKELY LENDER/INVESTOR
The SBA is your best bet for smaller
businesses. Larger businesses might look to venture lending. If yours is a
unique approach with new technology, look to angel investors to get started.

your 7 Step Information Technology Business Plan:

Hubby was a
problem; the banker was not. When my employer closed
its doors, Colleen and I opted to open our own company. We
have been overwhelmed. Not only has the business supported
us, but now we need to hire about three more people -- fast.
Before we could set up our line of credit, the bank said it
needed a business plan, and our banker recommended your site.
Now even my sweet hubby agrees that it was the smartest thing we
ever did.

My skill is good. English is not good. I did not want to do a business plan.
I made many mistakes. SBA likes it good. So now
business can grow.
