Subject: [firstname]: What does the future hold?

Hey [firstname]!

This is a tricky question, especially when you're concentrating on turning your idea into a business and making it a success, but sooner or later you're going to have to ask yourself: What are you going to do with this business in the long term?  Exactly how you answer will shape the course of action you take once your business is up and running.

So what are the options?

First of all you can grow it.  You can come up with new products/services to add to the inventory; expand to new areas; export; franchise the operation and so on.  

If your idea can be turned into a family business, there is the option pass it on to future generations; thereby guaranteeing their futures as well as establishing your legacy.

Many entrepreneurs don't like to get bogged down in the details of running a business, so when it gets to the point where it becomes a j-o-b, they cash out, sell on to new owners and invest the proceeds into another start-up business.  Perhaps you can too.

Wow, we've covered quite a lot over the past week or so, let's just recap:

We talked about finding your “why” and the crucial questions you must ask yourself before you even begin.  We covered how to put together a business plan and then test it to destruction so that you can be as sure as possible that your business will be a success.  We talked about ways of financing your new venture.  We covered getting help when you need it, and what you intend to do with your business in the long term.

But you know what?
