Business Plans

Sample business plans for sale.  Like a great resume, a business plan must first and foremost be readable.  After downloading the plan make note of the font choice  (Arial) and size (12pt), the use of white space (lots), and the inclusion of images and graphs.  Take the time to prepare a comprehensive two page executive summary and spend considerable amounts of time preparing and researching all the necessary components of a great business plan, including sections on competitors, markets, opportunity analysis, revenues, profitability, etc.  

A business plan is TOUGH! It is never complete and always changing.  It is your most important document and should absolutely NOT be done with business planning software.   Study, research, network, and read business plans from other real world endeavors.  It is only through this process that the entrepreneur can truly ferret out many of the possible hazards and pitfalls that might cause your new business to fail.  

Initial and Final Business Plans are in MS Word.   The Investment Bank Business Plan is a PDF.
 

As with all other documents, if your firm decides to use these agreements as templates in your own business, have a attorney review them for applicability to your industry.
