Are you currently looking to develop a business plan? Whether it’s to obtain finance or give your business direction, the new business.gov.au Business plan template (Word, 0.20MB) and Business plan guide (Word, 0.07MB) can help.
After consultation with industry and business intermediaries, business.gov.au has developed a business plan template with sections on:
- Your business – structure, registrations, location and premises, staff, products and services, operations and sustainability.
- Your market – research, targets, strategies, industry analysis and information on your customers and competitors.
- Your future – vision statement, business goals and key business milestones.
- Your finances – financial projections, interactive startup costing, balance sheet, profit and loss, cash flow and break-even analysis spreadsheets.
To help you complete the template, a guide has been developed covering:
- information and advice on how to get started
- who to contact for assistance with developing your plan
- a detailed overview of the business plan template with an explanation of each section and links to further information.
The new business plan template and guide are free and now available for download at www.business.gov.au/planning/business-plans/how-to-develop-your-business-plan.
