The Standard Business Plan
If you are planning to approach a financial
institution for a business loan or a landlord in order to
lease facilities, they will want to see a detailed business
plan.
The format of the Standard Business Plan
has been approved and endorsed by several financial institutions
and landlords. Most business owners will require the Standard
Plan.
It is ideal for start-up companies as well
as those businesses that have been in operation for only a
few years and are looking to establish a strategic direction.

The Final Product
The business owner receives several professionally
bound copies of the business plan (number as per your requirements).
Typically these plans are 30 - 35 pages in length.
In any business plan, the most important
sections are the Marketing and the Finance sections.
The Marketing section is unfortunately
often the weakest part of many internally prepared business
plans. We take sufficient time to thoroughly research and
understand your industry, your specific target market(s),
the demographics / buying profiles of prospective customers
and to identify your competitors. We ensure that all sales
projections are reasonable. Often we will develop pessimistic,
realistic and optimistic sales projection models.
The Finance section is extremely important
to any potential lender(s). It is a key indicator of the viability
of your business. It demonstrates how thoroughly you have
conducted your analysis, evaluated the risks and assessed
the probability of success. We take the necessary time to
ensure that all financial projections are accurate and realistic.
Each one of our plans is designed for the
unique needs of your business.
