| Participating in the business plan competition challenged me to create a road map to my ultimate destination…the establishment of a successful retail business. Your business plan provides you the directions of how to get from point A to point B. By participating, I realized how essential it is to have a solid, well thought out and well written plan. It helps you connect the dots. It goes from being a figment of your imagination to a reality. Putting all of my “illustrious” plans and ideas paper was threatening, yet exhilarating!
