The Application Process

Hi,
I want to become an entrepreneur after my MBA. I have a B-Plan as well. But for some schools, I need to mention my short-term and long-term post MBA goal. I am not sure what to mention as my long term post mba goal if I mention entrepreneurship as my short-term goal. Actually, entrepreneurship is my post-mba goal.
I am finding it difficult to translate this to short-term and long-term category.
Can somebody enlighten me here ? I will be obliged.

Thanks in Advance.

As a matter of fact, I have proven success as an entrepreneur, hence the goal. Also, this goal is in the industry in which I have experience.
One of the school asks for post MBA goal and I faced no problem there. Now, when it comes to long-term, I face issues, and exactly why I posted this question in this forum.
It would be great, if somebody can take a generic case and explain to me.

Thanks.

Like an individual's career, a business too has short and long-term goals. The growth can be in terms of revenue generation, diversification, expanding market territories, etc. You need to be primarily sure of what you want.

Since you said you have a B-plan, it is understood that you are clear about every aspect of a startup - industry, financial, operational and delivery resources, costs & profit. Now, you need to have a vision about where do you think your business will be 5 years (short-term) down the line and 10 years (long term) down the line.

Even if the business schools were not asking this, an entrepreneur needs to have clarity here. Your business should have a growth chart chalked out. You cannot run a business without a vision, without goals. Sit, think, and 'find' exactly which way and how far you wish to go. You 'have' to know your answers!
