This course is intended for logging business owners, key staff, family members and those who aspire to owning a logging business. Loggers are both owners and operators and their duties extend to many things beyond harvesting timber. The course will show the logger the components of a good business plan along with why it is so important. (A fillable template is included.) The course will guide the participants through the process of developing that plan by including personal financial considerations, what type of legal entity a logger might want to set up, how credit comes into play, the 80-20 rule, financial ratios, ownership transitions and the 10 traits & 4 themes of successful and innovative loggers in the northeast.
