Dr. Zach Paul Awarded for Best Business Plan

The Door County Economic Development Corporation, in association with the UW-Green Bay Small Business Development Center (SBDC), announced that Dr. Zach Paul, owner of Integrated Health Services of Door County (IHSODC), is the winner of the $1,200 cash award for the best business plan originating from the 14th annual Door County Entrepreneurial Training Program. The mission of IHSODC is to improve the health of Door County by providing the latest in chiropractic, nutritional and muscle rehabilitation services.

Paul was among the 15 students representing 12 start-up or existing local businesses in the class sponsored by DCEDC and the SBDC. The eight-week course covered such topics as Research, Marketing, Organizational Matters, Financial Planning and Projections and Managing Growth, and culminated with each of the participants writing a comprehensive business plan.

“Zach wrote a very thorough, well-written plan, focused on growing his businesses to the next level,” said DCEDC Executive Director Bill Chaudoir. “All of the people who participated in the class are winners, however. By taking the time to learn the skills of business planning, they have each greatly improved their chances of succeeding in whatever business venture they decide to pursue now or in the future.”
