Unlike online services that generalize and attempt to do business with everyone, I focus on the needs of small business because the small business environment is nothing like the corporate world. The managerial environment, marketing concepts and even the language are remarkably different.

When developing a business plan for a small business, communications are easiest, and the end result is best, when working with someone who really understands small business issues.

There are no staffers and temps here. You will have the advantage of working directly with one individual - Christie Karis. My mission is to help you develop a cohesive small business plan that will produce a profitable business model, secure funding and secure your independence.

You will have a choice of three business plan models that are designed to serve the needs of a typical small business. They are:

100 Level – Startup Business Plan
An affordable and professional document that is especially well suited for service businesses and those seeking capital from family, private sources and financial institutions.

200 Level – SBA Business Plan
Especially designed to meet SBA and SCORE requirements, the 200 Level SBA Business Plan will define your concept, clarify your market potential and detail your financial projections.

300 Level – Comprehensive Business Plan
Designed to meet the needs of retailers, distributors and manufacturers that face intense competition and need major funding, the 300 Level Business Plan is based on significant market research, sound marketing strategy and integrated financial projections that meet the requirements of private, government or banking sources.

My business expertise and experience is unique and grounded in small business operations. In addition to an advanced education in business management and marketing, I have thirty years of national experience in retail, distribution and consulting environments. My background includes operations, marketing, finance along with ownership and management of a family owned retail business with thirty employees. Under the banner of Focal Point Business Plans, I have been developing small business plans successfully since January 2003.
