The Business Planning Kit

The Purpose of Planning
Surveys have indicated that less than ten per cent of all small businesses have any sort of formal business plan. In fact, most people spend more time planning their annual holidays than they spend planning their business! That's a bit scary, especially when you consider what is usually at stake.

Why you need a Business Plan
If your business venture requires finance or additional capital, you will need to prepare a comprehensive business plan before approaching a bank or financial investors. Most will not even consider advancing money without one. The more detail and accuracy you can project in your plan, the more chance you will have of securing your loan.

Planning for the future
Your Business Plan should be your road map for the future growth of your business.

It's also a great way of checking the overall viability of a new business venture or planning for long term growth and even your ultimate exit or succession. A well prepared business plan will also add value to your business and help you stay on track.

Easy to use and easy to follow
Preparing a practical and comprehensive business plan is not an easy task and it can be quite daunting. To help you through the process, we have prepared this special Business Planning Kit. The kit contains all the things you need to create both a practical, directional guide for the future of your business plus a formal business plan suitable to raise finance or attract investors. You will also gain valuable insights into the strengths and weaknesses of your business and its ongoing viability.

Getting professional help
You could, of course, engage the assistance of a consultant or adviser (such as your accountant) to help you. This is highly recommended however, this sort of help is not cheap. Plus, even if you do engage professional help, you will save you a lot of time and money by working through the exercises in the Business Planning Kit first.

Whether you're a first time start up or a seasoned business veteran — you will find the Business Planning Kit tremendously helpful in getting you focused and keeping you on track.

"I wanted to buy a business and approached the bank for a loan. the manager said he wouldn't consider it without a thorough business plan. L bought the kit and worked on it on the weekend. On Monday morning I went to the bank and got the loan. Plus the bank manager said it was the best small business plan he had ever seen!"

"The Excel spread sheet templates are fantastic. I have tried to do them myself in the past but got totally confused. They saved me hours of time and made the whole process of cash flow projection and budgeting so much easier."

"I have been in business for almost 20 years and I never had a business plan. Never thought I needed one - until now. The Business Planning Kit really helped me to focus on aspects of my business I never really thought about before. I'd recommend it to anyone who is serious about being in business".
