Business Plans

A good business plan is often required before a bank or other lender will agree to a loan. It is also a useful exercise however as it enables you to put together a clear and well-planned vision for the future for your business idea.

It needs to be realistic, well researched and clearly set out - always be prepared to answer questions about or defend any aspect of your business plan.

As a general guideline, a business plan should always include:

  • Introduction - to yourself and the nature and status of the business.

  • Marketing - who your market is and what your marketing strategy will be.

  • Finance - include a forecast of sales, costs and cash flows. How you propose to raise finance, how much you will need and how you will pay it back.

Depending on the nature of the business, there are many other areas that you should also cover such as details and ongoing costs for employees, premises, machinery, tools, supplies, stationery, IT equipment etc.
