Developing a business plan for an established business serves several purposes: It can help convince investors or lenders to finance your business, persuade a business buyer to purchase your business, or entice partners or key employees to join your company. Most importantly, it serves asa roadmap guiding the growth and continued success of your business throughout its next stages.  \nWriting a business plan is an opportunity to carefully think through every step to achieving your goals for your company. This is your chance to discover any weaknesses that may threaten your business, identify opportunities you may not have considered, and plan how you will deal with challenges that are likely to arise. Be honest with yourself as you work through your business plan. Don’t gloss over potential problems; instead, figure out solutions.  \nA good business plan is clear and concise. A person outside of your industry should be able to understand it. Avoid overusing industry jargon or terminology.  \nMost of the time involved in writing your plan should be spent researching and thinking. Make sure to document your research, including the sources of any information you include.  \nAvoid making unsubstantiated claims or sweeping statements. Investors, lenders, business buyers and others reading your plan will want to see accurate past data and realistic future projections. They will expect your assumptions to be supported with facts.  \nIf your plan is primarily for internal use, it doesn’t need to be as fine-tuned as a plan for outside readers.  \nHowever, you should still think it through carefully, particularly the financial sections.  \nThis template includes instructions for each section of the business plan, followed by corresponding fillable worksheet/s.  \nThe last section in the instructions,“Refining Your Plan,” explains ways you may need to modify your plan for specific purposes, such as getting a bank loan, or for specific industries, such as retail.  \nProofread your completed plan (or have someone proofread it for you) to make sure it’s free of spelling and grammatical errors and that all figures are accurate.  \nBusiness Plan  \n[Insert Date]  \nCompany name Street address 1  \nStreet address 2  \nCity, state, ZIP Business phone Website URL Email address  \nConfidentiality Agreement  \nThe undersigned reader acknowledges that any information provided by   in this business plan, other than information that is in the public domain, is confidential in nature, and that any disclosure or use of same by the reader may cause serious harm or damage to  .
