   How exciting moving forward on this new restaurant.

   I suggest you contact the folks from SCORE. They are retired executives who will support you as you move forward and they have a great free template that you can download and use at no cost.

   You can visit their website at:

   http://www.score.org/

   I also highly recommend you think about working with a business coach. I am a coach and have helped endless amounts of people get their business off the ground.

   Good luck!! Let us know how you are doing.
