Business plan guidelines

Guide to writing a business plan – for use by a Counsellor

For use by a Counsellor, these Business plan guidelines and exercises take a step by step approach to helping a start-up client develop their own business plan.

Writing a business plan can be compared to preparing a car for a long journey. Before leaving the driver checks everything in the car is functioning properly, checks the petrol, checks the map, takes with him necessary small spare parts, etc. The driver simply makes sure the car will be able to arrive at the chosen destination.

The entrepreneur should act in a similar way. The main areas covered in this material help to “make preparations for the journey”, i.e. your journey to the market.

Using this material will increase your chances of success.
