A business plan is a written document that describes your business covering objectives, strategies, sales, marketing and financial forecasts. You’ll need a business plan if you want to secure investment or a loan from a bank.
Potential investors will make judgements about your business based on the business plan that you produce.
It can also help to convince customers, suppliers and potential employees to support you.
It needs to be concise and clear and answer all the key questions an investor might have. No business gets funding based entirely on their business plan but it forms the basis of all on-going discussions you might have with investors who show interest.
