IT Consulting Services Plan Objectives

The objectives of this business plan are:

  • To provide a written guide for starting and managing this IT consulting business; a strategic framework for developing a comprehensive tactical marketing plan.
  • The scope of this business plan is to provide detailed monthly projections for the current plan year, and yearly summaries for the following two years.

Target Market Segments

The business will spread marketing efforts across the following segments:

  • Home Office Businesses- The largest and fastest growing segment, this segment is obviously defined as small businesses that are based primarily out of the owner's home. This is not the same as simple home computer users, which sources warn are NOT a viable market segment for computer consulting.
  • Small Businesses- Defined by the government as businesses with 1 to 99 employees, this is the second largest and fastest growing segment.
  • Medium Businesses- 100 to 499 employees.
  • Large Businesses- 500 or more employees.
The largest volume of sales opportunities is in the home office and small business areas. This consulting business plan will focus on those areas only. Medium and large businesses will not be covered as resources won't be available to market effectively everywhere and 7/8 of sales opportunity are in the small and medium business market.
