Entrepreneurship and Negotiation 7 Writing an Effective Business Plan: Crafting a Roadmap to Success

“There is real magic in enthusiasm “There is real magic in enthusiasm. It spells the difference between mediocrity and accomplishment.” --Norman Vincent Peale, 1961

Business Plan A formal, written expression of the entrepreneur’s vision for converting ideas into a profitable, going business The entry card for serious consideration by venture capitalists, banks, and other sources of funding

A Living Document A business plan changes often as a new business develops. Do just enough business planning to get the new company started. Refine the plan with information gathered from running the new venture.

Model of Successful Business Planning Prepare a relatively simple plan Start the business Refine the business plan Continue to grow the business

Business Plan Components What is the basic idea? Why is the new product appealing—and to whom? How will the idea be realized? Who are the entrepreneurs? How much funding is needed? What type of funding? How will it be used? How will you realize a return?

A Successful Plan A serious document prepared by serious people Orderly Succinct Persuasive

Executive Summary Your elevator pitch Provides a brief, clear, and persuasive overview of the new venture Target 2 to 3 pages

Business Plan Sections Background and purpose Marketing Competition Development, production, and location Management Financial information Risk factors Harvest or exit Scheduling and milestones Appendices

Background, Product, and Purpose What is the nature of the idea driving your company and how did it arise? What does the product have to offer? What is the basic nature of the company? What is the company’s mission?

Market Analysis What have you done to identify the market? How large is the market? How will products or services be promoted? What do you know about competing products and companies? How will the product or service be priced?

Development, Production, and Location Where are the products or services in the development process? What are the projected costs and timetable for making the product or delivering the service? What steps have been taken to assure quality and safety?

Management Team Do team members have the experience, expertise, skills, and personal characteristics needed? Do team members having good working relationships?

Financial Plans and Projections Proforma balance sheet Proforma income statement Cash flow statement Break-even analysis

Harvest and Exit Management succession Exit strategies

Scheduling and Milestones Formal incorporation Completion of design Completion of prototypes Hiring of initial personnel Product displays Agreements Moving into production Receipt of orders First sales Profitability

The Intangibles The extra “something” Pay attention to organization, clarity, word choice, and style Have good writers read your plan Revise according to their suggestions

Seven Deadly Sins Plan is poorly prepared Plan looks too slick Executive summary is too long Development stage of product is unclear Fails to answer “Why would anyone ever want to buy one?” Doesn’t state management qualifications Financial projections are wishful thinking

The Presentation Remember: This is important! Prepare, prepare, prepare Choose content carefully Persuade, don’t overwhelm Show enthusiasm tempered with reality Rehearse Don’t overlook the basics Respond positively to questions
