WHAT IS A BUSINESS PLAN

A Business Plan is a formal document containing business goals, the methods on how these
goals can be attained, and the time frame within which these goals need to be achieved.

Entrepreneurs who plan to enter any business endeavor must have a business plan on hand to
guide them throughout the process. Different business plans are prepared for different
purposes. There are business plans written before setting up an enterprise which is similar to
a pre-feasibility study and a feasibility study. Many new enterprises need to convince
prospective business investors about the soundness and potential of their business. They need
to convey the capabilities and competencies of their owners and managers. They must also be
able to “sell” the proponent and the business proposition to this audience. These are
situations when a good business plan is needed.

There are business plans that are written during the first few years of the enterprise to guide
the entrepreneur on which strategies would be most beneficial for the enterprise to take. And
there are business plans that are focused on bringing the enterprise to a higher level of
growth, a period where the enterprise has already reached its peak and would want to enter
into another endeavor by recreating and re-establishing itself.

Clearly, a business plan serves many masters. First, it serves the entrepreneur who must set a
navigational course. Second, it serves investors and cautious financiers. And third, it serves
the managers and staff of the organization so that they will know the strategies and program
of the enterprise.
PURPOSE OF A BUSINESS PLAN
The purpose of a business plan is to identify, describe, and analyze a business opportunity
and/ or a business already underway, examining its technical, economic, and financial
feasibility.

Moreover, it should serve as a business card for introducing the business to others: banks,
investors, institutions, public bodies, or any other agent involved, when it is time to seek
cooperation or financial support of any kind. PARTS OF THE BUSINESS PLAN
