Business Plans Are Lies
How can anyone forecast what the world will be like 6 months from now or 3 years from now? Most of us don’t even know what we will be doing next Thursday. So how is anyone going to be able to predict what a business will look like 2 or 3 years from now? So when someone asks you for a business plan in order for you to apply for money, just provide what they want and don’t worry about how accurate it is.

Learn About Government Contracts
Find out how to get a government contract. The government purchases more of anything than anyone else in the world and they do it all over the country. My sister has received over $300,000 in government contracts for her small picture framing business. I even read where the government spent $30,000 on a freelance priest. Learning how to get a $100,000 contract is better than learning how to get a $100,000 grant. A grant is only a one-time thing. A contract you can keep getting again and again.
