Inside this material

A business plan is useful long after it has been read by a bank or investor, because it forces clear thinking about how the business will work. This e-learning material guides you through writing one, starting with the purpose of your plan and who will read it, since that shapes its length and tone.

You then work through each section in turn. The material covers describing the business and its offer, analysing the market and competitors, setting out marketing and sales plans and explaining how operations and the team will deliver. Clear examples show what readers look for in each part.

Later levels focus on the financial side: estimating start-up and running costs, forecasting revenue, building a simple cash-flow projection and checking that the numbers support the story. The final stage covers the executive summary, presentation and keeping the plan updated as the business changes.
