"Get Out of the Truck" Introduces Free Business Plan Tool for Home Service Entrepreneurs

911 biz plan
December 4, 2020

GetOutOfTheTruck.life, a resource website for home service entrepreneurs, today announced a free business plan tool designed to give small business owners clearer direction for achieving their goals. This intuitive feature guides users to optimize strategies for:

  • Marketing
  • Budgeting financial resources for rapid growth 
  • Lead generation and conversion
  • Establishing a mission and vision
  • Identifying and defining target customers

“A lot of small business owners don’t create a plan,” says Get Out of the Truck founder, Idan Shpizear. “They are just hoping to do well. This tool helps them set clear goals and provides a budget to follow.” Recognizing that many business owners in his industry come from a trade background rather than a business background, Shpizear worked with his team to develop a tool that was simple to understand and use. Entrepreneurs answer a series of questions regarding their audience, budget, strategies, and goals. In the end, they receive a business plan tailored to the needs and vision of their company.

The tool also shows users where their revenue will be in five years based on year-over-year growth. For Shpizear, understanding the possibilities is almost as important as the plan itself. “A lot of people underestimate what they can do in five years,” he says. “It’s easier to make the small changes they need to make today when business owners are able to see how much those changes will pay off in the long run.”

The business plan tool is available for free today at GetOutOfTheTruck.life.
