How to Prepare a Business Plan
This fifth edition of How to Prepare a Business Plan offers advice on writing a business plan, producing cash flow forecasts, planning the borrowing and expanding the business.
A good business plan should impress potential financial backers by clarifying aims, providing a blueprint for the future of your company and a benchmark against which to measure growth.
How to Prepare a Business Plan explains the whole process clearly, and includes guidance on: producing cash flow forecasts and sample business plans; expanding a business; planning the borrowing; and monitoring business progress.
The author introduces several small businesses as case studies, analysing their business plans, monitoring their progress and discussing their problems. Whether you are looking to start up or expand, this practical advice will help you to prepare a plan that is tailored to the requirements of your business – one that will get you the financial backing you need.
