Content and Timing has been
adjusted…
I trimmed out a lot of fluff and got
back to basics
Note that even though there is a lot in
this week, there is little in next week
and nothing in the week after.
Use your time as needed to get all of it
done.

Project update…
It is important to be wrapping up the first
draft SOON. DO NOT wait until the last
minute to do this.
At this point, you should have a good cash
budget over at least 3 and probably 5
years, and that will give you an idea of the
amount of and type of financing you will
need.
Use that information to start writing the
financial plan and strategy to cover the
funding needs for the company.
