Southern California Company Helps Local Entrepreneurs Through its Business Development Directory
West Covina, CA (Vocus) February 17, 2009 -- Tony Smith, President of SoCalBizOps and creator of the "Certified Business Plan" (www.certifiedbusinessplan.com) had an idea to create a Business Development Directory that would guide entrepreneurs and any business owner in developing a business plan that would help in planning and raising capital. In cooperation with the Foothill Workforce Investment Board (FWIB) such a publication was created and made available throughout the cities of Pasadena, Arcadia, Monrovia, Duarte, Sierra Madre, South Pasadena and the community of Altadena.
The FWIB is a thirty-two member board comprised of business owners, corporate executives, local education institutes, labor unions, and community-based organizations.
Tony Smith, creator of the "Certified Business Plan" (www.certifiedbusinessplan.com) has this to say, "I want to help as many new and existing business owners understand the importance of a good business plan. With the help of FWIB, together we accomplished that objective." He went on to say, "Persons interested in a Free copy of the Business Development Directory can call one of the cities mentioned above Chamber of Commerce and request a copy."
Tony is looking to help other communities and cities by developing similar publications to help businesses start and grow in their cities. Municipalities interested in a "Business Development Directory" for their area can go to www.certifiedbusinessplan.com and contact Tony Smith.
SoCalBizOps' team of professionals from varying business disciplines combine talents to produce what is considered by major financial institutions and government agencies as one of the most comprehensive and well-designed business plans available to business owners today.
New and existing business owners interested in a confidential business plan or project assessment can go to the company's website (www.certifiedbusinessplan.com) and fill out a request form. The company usually charges $500 for this assessment but is offering it at no cost or obligation in an effort to help businesses succeed.

Mr. Smith is considered by many as one of the nation's leading experts in business plan development and writing. He is a guest lecturer at universities, schools and corporate events throughout the US. Tony has a very professional and direct style about him and is available for media interviews and guest appearances nationwide.
