Week 7 the business plan: an entrepreneurial toolThe entrepreneurial plan:
A good business plan serves four, interconnected
purposes:
As an instigator of analysis
As a facilitator of synthesis
As a call to action
As a tool for communication
Analysis: A business plan dictates that certain information
be included. Preparing a business plan ensures that a full understanding of markets, customers and
competitors is in place.
Synthesis: A business plan encourages the integration of information in new, and potentially valuable
ways. New opportunities and innovations may be spotted as a consequence of creating the plan.
Action: A business plan defines the key projects involved in progressing the venture. It can be used to
define a series of integrated objectives and specify resource requirements.
It acts as a call to action.
Communication: The business plan can be used as the basis for communication the venture, what it
is and what it offers to key stakeholder groups.
Communication (continued):
For example:
What should a business plan include?
There is no simple answer to this question. As a piece of communication, it should be tailored to
the needs of the particular audience and the action the entrepreneur wishes to elicit.
What should a business plan include (continued)?
Many entrepreneurs create a ‘master’ business plan that is wide in scope and detailed.
From this master plan, specific plans (written or presented) can be created quickly.
This master plan is dynamic. It is added to as new information and insights become available.
Formats for a business plan:
Mission
Overview of objectives
Description of market environment (and how are you positioning yourself in it?)
Strategy

Project and activities
