    Business Plan Template
    Hello;

    I would like to know if there is a website that I can go to, to either look at or download a business plan for a for profit thrift consignment shop? I have this draft of a plan that I believe is not or does not apply to the type of business that I am looking to open up. If anyone can assist me I would be so grateful to you. Thank you so much.

    Hi, paish215!

    Please click on the following links.

    National Association of Resale & Thrift Shops: Resale FAQs

    Consignment shops: Understanding the difference from thrift stores - by Bob Schmidt - Helium

    How to Tell The Difference Between Consignment and Thrift Stores | eHow.com

    On those sites, you'll find information that you can use in your business plan.

    Thanks!

    Hi again, paish215!

    If you click on the following search, you'll find lots of sites where you'll find sample of business plans.

    Outline for a Business Plan Objective - Google Search

    There is no one, set way to develop the type of business plan for the type of business that you're wanting to start. There can be many variables to them, depending on the location of the store, layout of a building, requirements by a city, etc.

    You can however, use templates that you find to develop your own business plan. You just tailor ones that are close to what you want to be your own. I put the word "objective" into the search for a reason, because certainly, your objective for owning and operating such a business should be one of the first considerations in developing your business plan and subsequenly, your business.

    If you would like to post a starting draft of your business plan on this thread, without putting any contact information in it, that would be great!

    I'm sure that there will be those of us who'll be willing to come along to help you to develop it.

    Thanks!
