Your business plan is the most important document you will develop in the start-up of your business.

Most entrepreneurs follow a specific pattern when they write a business plan in order to present the information in an organized way. While plans will vary because of different writing styles and preferences as well as types of business being developed, they all must cover the same common elements. These are:

  • Executive Summary

  • Business Description

  • Ownership and Management

  • Technical/Operational

  • Marketing

  • Financial

The Interactive Business Planner (IBP) enables you to do your business plan online. The IBP is:

  • customized for five different types of businesses; manufacturing, primary, service, retail and other start-ups;

  • prepares your 3-year projected financial statements;

  • password protected; and

  • user-friendly.
