Business Expansion Plan

Business Expansion PlanYou developed a comprehensive business plan when you opened your business. Now you want to expand and grow. It's time to review the business plan you have in place and modify it to reflect your plans for expansion.

A detailed plan is an excellent evaluation tool that you can use to spot any potential weaknesses or problem areas in your proposed expansion. It's always easier and cheaper to rewrite a plan than to change the direction of your expansion once you begin.

For assistance in writing your expansion plan contact any of the organizations below:

  • Empire State Development (ESD) is New York State's economic development agency. ESD has Regional Offices that are located throughout the state and around the world. ESD is comprised of professionals who help businesses in order to encourage economic investment and prosperity in New York State.

  • The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) America's small business resource has programs and services located throughout the United States for small businesses. The SBA offers a variety of financial and technical programs designed to assist in the development of your small business.
