Executive Summary  Short summary of the rest of the plan  Write this after you have written everything else  Should state: What you will invest What you plan to do with the money What the outcome will be  This include specifics, including Market share Expected profits  Give numbers, not platitudes

Company Overview  Mission statement  Objectives What are the company’s objectives?  What markets?  What size market share?  What profitability?

Market Analysis  What are the target market segments?  How big is each segment?  How much is it growing each year?  Who are the competitors?

Product Plans For each target market segment:  What products will you have in that segment?  When will you introduce them?  What are the product characteristics? E.g. size, performance, MTBF  What will differentiate your products?

Marketing Plan For each target segment, address:  Product  Price  Promotion  Distribution  What is the sales forecast for each product in the segment?

Production Plan  How much do you plan to produce each year?  What is the targeted plant capacity?  Will you add or sell off capacity?  How much inventory do you plan to carry?

Finance  What are your current financials?  What do key ratios say?  What financing actions will you take? Sell bonds or equity? Retire bonds or buy-back stock?  What do you expect your financials to look like in the future?

Profiles of Key Executives  Include these if going outside of the company for financing E.g. a start-up going to a bank or Venture Capitalist  Do not include for internal plans

Business Plans – Practical Notes  Remember – the plans should cover three years.  Use tables to present data  Do not use “I”, use “we” or the name of the company  Do not use the words such as “a lot” or similar. Give data.  You are trying to convince someone else that what you are doing is worth investing in.
