As a startup small business owner, you need to have a business plan you can rely on for both external and internal purposes.

At the end of the day, your stadiums and arenas business can't afford to skate by with an inferior business plan. Even though it takes time to write a high quality plan, there are a lot of arguments why your company can't succeed without an effective business plan.

Finding a Non-Competitive Business Mentor

Once you've finished assessing the competion, it's a smart move to learn as much as you can from somebody who is already in the business. Local competitors are not going to give you the time of day, mind you. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?

Thankfully, an owner of a a stadiums and arenas business in a location that is not competitive to you will be much more likely to talk with you, given that you don't compete with them in their area. Indeed, many experienced entrepreneurs enjoy offering advice to startup entrepreneurs. In my experience, you may have to call ten business owners in order to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.
