I’m an artist.. trying to open an art gallery.. and of course, I studied art, not business. I’ve been having difficulties locating templates, etc. I don’t know what needs to be a part of a business plan. This will be a non-profit gallery. Any ideas, suggestions, points in the right direction?
Please, do not suggest that I pay someone to write one. If I had the money for that, clearly, I would not be here.
There are probably a lot of community resources available to help you. Find a local SCORE (Service Corps of Retired Executives) or visit www.score.org to find a location near you.
There might be other community organizations that are able to help you, too. In Spokane, Wash., we have an organization called SNAP (Spokane Neighborhood Action Programs) that offers business planning and financial services to small businesses like yours.
You should also find a free networking group to help you. The one I belong to is called BNA or Business Networking Association. We only pay for our breakfast – there is no cost to attend. I'm sure there are similar organizations available in your city, whether BNA or another networking group.
And, you should join a local Rotary Club or Rotaract Club. There will be other business people willing to help you, and you will learn a lot about your community and its resources, which will help you develop your business plan.
Finally, if you care to e-mail me, I can send you a template of a business plan.
Best wishes and good luck on your venture. Hope this helps!

I need to "secure" my new job by making a demo advertisment sort of thing for a boutique style store, which also has a cafe along with it. I want to impress the owner and bring it back tomorrow. Any suggestions? It can be anything I want really. Someone mentioned a postcard style, which is good and shouldn't be too hard, but I don't want the lady to think I'm slacking. She suggested special events such as mother daughter brunch and clothing sale, which I think I'm going with. I'm 17 and have never taken an advertising or business course! She appreciated the fact that I've won writing contests (for essays!) and that I'm taking college English courses next year (when I'm a Senior) but advertising just doesn't seem to be up that alley! Still this job is my dream job. I just need some help/tips!
An advertisement or a promotional activity?
if its for promotion…y dont dress up!
show off the things that make ur store special!
and of course, this makes everything more tangible, customers will more be delighted to be able to see the things, rather than just viewing their descriptions…
hope this helps! good luck with ur job and studies!

I HAVE BEEN AN ADMIN./CLERICAL PERSON AT MY COMPANY FOR 10 YEARS AND WOULD LIKE TO GET PROMOTED TO SALES. I NEED TO WRITE A LETTER
ANY ADVISE WOULD BE APPRICATED
Yes. Proof read your letter, this one needed that. Don't use all capital letters. Since you didn't catch that, I have to assume you don't know it is improper. Have someone else proof it also. Hopefully, they would have caught the word advise used instead of advice.
Don't use abbreviations, especially when only one word of a group is abbreviated and the other is not. It looks sloppy. You also left the ending period off of the end of your post and the previous sentence. When I look at people's writing, I see these things, your potential boss might also see them.
What training and experience do you have in sales? Why would anyone give you a chance? Tell them those things. Sell yourself to them. If you can't sell yourself, how are you going to sell the company's product.
Sales and clerical take very different skills. You have proven yourself at clerical, prove to them why you are a good candidate for sales.
P.S. TNA gave an excellent answer.

I love to write and just wanted to figure out some of my options before I graduated school here in able to be ready to travel when I do.
Help?
The University of Iowa is pretty much the premier writing school in the nation. Just about anyone who is serious about writing wants to go there, but it is extremely difficult to get accepted.

Whats the average hourly rate for a freelance business writer who write brochures, copy for websites, sales letters, and other advertising copy for corporations in NYC? Thanks.

There seem to be very few really good ones. I taught creative writing several years, but have been out of it for a while.
I noticed that most of the online courses that are offered are not what you expect at all any more. In a creatie writing course, you think you'll get to do some writing, but I took a look at one instructor's curriculum, and the first six weeks entailed no writing assignments!
Check everything out carefully before you send anyone money or sign any agreements. There are some serious rip-offs on the internet. 
Good luck to you!

I'd like to take a course in literary writing, however I don't have the money to go back to college and there doesn't seem to be much available here in Spain, in terms of workshops.
Are there any *good*, trustworthy free Internet sites with this sort of thing, or am I just dreaming?

I need one that is affordable and about 6-10 weeks long, if possible. If anyone knows of any good writing courses online specifically for screenwriting then please pass the website on to me. It would be greatly appreciated!
I have never found one worth it. The best way is to read scripts, understand the formatting and write scripts with new ideas. Or old ideas that have been done a million times but told differently ex. Romeo and Juliet… on a ship, Titanic! There are some books that can be read but be prepared to be told different things from different people. There is not a real way to do it so if your script is different it will be torn apart by that person.
and knowing someone in the industry helps get it made no matter what it's like…
