You might check to see if your state has a Small Business Development Center. Many moons ago our local SBDC office partnered with a hand full of business professionals (bankers, attorneys, CPAs, commercial insurance agents etc.) and held a six-week course that met twice a week. There was a small fee as most of the cost was underwritten by a couple of businesses. I attended as kind of a tune-up and did walk away with a new perspective on a couple of issues.

The class covered the things Moose discussed, and guest speakers discussed things like commercial loans, licensing, buildings and property etc. I can also stress the importance of a good business plan, but I'll go one step further.... it's important to review your business plan every couple of years and update it accordingly.
