<strong>Writing</strong> <strong>the</strong> Best Business Plan<br />

Prior to starting any <strong>business</strong>, it is critical to create a strong <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong>.<br />

Your <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> is a guide. It meant to help you to organize how your <strong>business</strong> is / will be run and<br />

is helpful when you are looking for small <strong>business</strong> loans.<br />

A <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> gives a whole synopsis of a company in 1 document. A carefully designed <strong>business</strong><br />

<strong>plan</strong> is able to help you map <strong>the</strong> future, enable you to test out new thoughts and see whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>y<br />

have any real probability of succeeding.<br />

The secret to a <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> that will get results is this. You <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> and financial<br />

perspective should be based on facts. Business <strong>plan</strong>s that sound unrealistic do not get funding!<br />

Should you hire a professional?<br />

A <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> is a crystal clear statement of your organization mission and vision. If you are not<br />

good at expressing your thoughts on paper. It's possible to get assistance with <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> writing<br />

from professional <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> writers.<br />

When hiring a professional <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> writer you want to get references and speak with <strong>the</strong>m!<br />

Ask <strong>the</strong>m if <strong>the</strong>y were able to obtain financing using <strong>the</strong> <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> created for <strong>the</strong>m.<br />

Was <strong>the</strong> <strong>plan</strong> tailor made for <strong>the</strong>ir <strong>business</strong>?l Or did <strong>the</strong> writer use a template?<br />

Did <strong>the</strong> writer do <strong>the</strong> research for <strong>the</strong> financial prospectus or did <strong>the</strong> writer require <strong>the</strong>m to provide<br />

<strong>the</strong> numbers?<br />

Hiring a professional isn’t necessary. There are lots of free templates online that can be used. If you<br />

are a startup, you may want to hire someone to do <strong>the</strong> research portion so you can have accurate<br />

numbers for your financial prospectus.<br />

Reasons why you should have a <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong><br />

A <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> is an excellent motivational tool which shows whe<strong>the</strong>r you've drifted away from your<br />

vision and lets you get back on course. It is an integral part of starting a <strong>business</strong>.<br />

Essentially, <strong>the</strong> <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> becomes an advertising device used to entice lenders and venture<br />

capitalist into financing or partnering with you in your <strong>business</strong>.<br />

Tips For a “Polished” Successful Business<br />

Plan<br />

You may choose to send your <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> to a professional writer for an editorial review to<br />

improve its quality.

Your <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> should begin with an executive summary. Even if it's <strong>the</strong> case that you<br />

don't require a <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> to take to investors or possible partners you'll still find one<br />

useful.<br />

A great <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> should be tailored to <strong>the</strong> particular demands of <strong>the</strong> target audience so<br />

as to be engaging.<br />

Finally, I can’t stress this enough! A <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong>s must be realistic. Especially <strong>the</strong> financial<br />

prospectus. If your numbers are over <strong>the</strong> top and unrealistic, your <strong>business</strong> <strong>plan</strong> will get ignored by<br />

lenders and investors. And you will NOT get <strong>the</strong> funding you need or want.<br />
