[Company] History

In [Month, Year] [I/we] formed a [Product/Service] company that manufactured start-of-the-art complex widgetry.  This company was located in [City, State].  [I/we] formed this company as a [proprietorship, partnership, corporation].  Others involved in this business were: [names].

The main goal of this company was to [explain].

Financing was arranged through [home equity loans, savings, venture capital, friends and family, etc.] [Explain terms, rates and ability to repay.]

This venture was very successful in generating and increasing sales, but was not effective in achieving profitability.  The main reason for this was the amount

of actual overhead experienced.  This overhead was not initially anticipated by me at the beginning of that venture.  Items including credit checking, warranty program management, extensive travel, maintaining warehouse stock and the management and expense of a national sales force were expenses not originally forecast or expected.  With this level of overhead, it was mathematically impossible to achieve profitability.

or:

This venture was very successful in generating and increasing sales, as well as effective in achieving profitability.  This was due to the following reasons:

[Reason 1}

[Reason 2]

[Reason 3]

OR:

[My Company] was recently conceived and is still in the beginning stages.  To this point the following has been accomplished:

§  A team consisting of [list names and primary responsibility. (i.e John Doe - Marketing) has been formed.

§  A prospective [customer/client] list has been drawn up.

§  Strategy meetings are being held every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings.

§  This business plan has been drawn up.

[Now link the past to the future - why a former company will lead into this one or how your present company and history will lead into any future plans.  A short paragraph should suffice.]

We are now able to adequately address the markets we have targeted.  We have adjusted our staff, redirected our advertising and sales force, and have added the products necessary to meet the needs and expectations of our customers.

[Product/Service] Description

[My Company] intends to offer [product/service].  This [product/service] offers our customers the best possible solution as it:

§  Offers the lowest price on the market

§  Offers our users better value per dollar spent

§  Provides an alternative way to achieve a similar task.

§  Provides a service which is not presently available in this area.

§  Is strengthened by a team with combined experience of XX years.

§  Saves them time and money

§  Provides an alternative, cost effective way for them to realize a similar goal.

The [product/service] has a useful life of XX y

ears.  To distribute this product so that it remains usable for our customers, we must use the following methods of storage and transportation:

1. Overnight delivery

2. Cold storage

3. Incorporate preservatives

4. Shipment within two weeks to distributors.

5. Specially padded boxcars.

Even though the technology used to create this product is new, we expect that others will be able to substantially reproduce our patented results within XX years.  To remain on the leading edge of this product, we will need to devote approximately XX% of revenues toward research and development.  Also due to the fast changing nature of this industry, we will need to retrofit these machines within XX years at customer expense.  Our manufacturing plan has considered this.

[If general service to be offered is not obvious, such as carpet cleaning, sales rep, lawn care, consulting, etc.  explain what service is.  Then give a detailed description of your particular service and its uniqueness.]

Short Examples:

1.   Our carpet cleaning machinery is state-of-the-art.

2.   Our consulting practice will address these specialized areas: [list]

3.   We will only rep these specific product lines. [list]

1. Hiring staff specialized in these new areas.

2. Increase our continuing education and training expense.

3. Adding complementary lines.

The philosophy of [My Company] is to price not just according to our costs, but also according to what the market will pay.

Our targeted minimum gross profit margin for a category  must be XX%.

By pricing to the market, [I/we] will achieve higher sales and therefore increase my buying power.  As the amounts of my purchases increase, my per unit costs of shipping decrease and [I/we] will achieve higher discount levels from my suppliers. Through these economies of scale, many items currently on the market can be sold with lower prices, yet a higher net profit.

Product pricing will include a range of quantity discounts as well as an early payment discount.

Rather than being strictly regional, [I/we] will expand into the national market.

To control foreign exchange risks, [I/we] will monitor the markets and hedge accordingly.  [I/we] will also use overseas bank accounts.

A level and policy of Capitalization that will allow [me/us] to fully address the respective markets with comprehensive marketing and customer service plans.

[List your most meaningful ideas and any new ideas you have for the future.]

Summary

Through [my,our] leadership, [I,we] will be able to reduce overhead as a percentage of sales thereby increasing the amount of profit to be retained in the business.  Because of our pricing policy, more people will purchase our merchandise thus increasing the size of the market and we will be increasing our market share.  What [My Company] proposes to use are just good solid business sense, economies of scale, and the use of efficient financial techniques.  This will allow us the following options:

§  increase service

§

increase advertising

Through [my,our] leadership, [I,we] will be able to reduce overhead as a percentage of sales thereby ncreasing the amount of profit to be retained in the business.  What [My Company] proposes to use are just good solid business sense, economies of scale, and the use of efficient financial techniques.  This will allow us the following options:

§  increase customer service

§  increase advertising expenditures

§  increase profits

§  increase selection of services offered

This plan will give us tremendous flexibility to use any of these options or a mix of them to effectively attack our target markets and meet our long term goals.  This combination of experience, sophistication, capitalization and innovation will assist [My Company] as it strives to reach its sales, profit and return objectives.

Pricing

Before [I/we] set the price for my complex widgets, [I/we] determined on a unit basis what my costs were going to be.  [I/we] then determined what the market price was for the normal widget.  At this price it was determined that for all but the lowest sales projections, this product would turn a profit at this price.  However, since our complex widgets offer additional features, we felt that we could price it approximately 50% above simple widgets.

To test this price, we called a database of 50 large users of simple widgets.  We first questioned them about the desirability of our extra features and then asked them directly if this price would be acceptable if such a product were available.  We found that 75% of those polled would be interested in this product.  Of this 75%, we received 10 firm orders representing approximately 30% of this group.

OR:

We have determined that the market price is $ XX per unit.  This will equal a margin of XX%.

OR:

Our unit cost has been figured at $XX.  We need a margin of XX% to pay our overhead and earn a sufficient profit.  Therefore, our selling price will be $XX.

Before [I/we] set the price for our [service], [I/we] forecast what our fixed monthly costs were going to be.  [I/we] then determined what the market rate for comparable services were.  At this rate it was determined that for all but the lowest billing projections, this [Service] would turn a profit at this rate.

[Optional, if applicable]

However, since our service is unique and demands a higher level of expertise, we felt that we should bill above othe

r comparable rates.

Specific Markets

Market #1

General History

The first widget was introduced into the market in 1036.  Widgets remained much as the original production until well into the 20th century when computer modeling showed that there could be some enhancements made to the basic widget.  The market for widgets has been generally steady with market growth closely following the typical population growth.  At this time there are approximately 1,500 companies worldwide making comparable simple widgets.

Lawn care companies have enjoyed a period of steady growth over the past twenty years.  This demand is due to many factors, not the least of which is the advance of lawn care technology.  In our proposed marketing area, there are 25 lawn care services.

Entry Strategy

Our widget has been designed by the latest in computer aided design.  We are able to manufacture our complex widgets on computer driven assembly lines using the latest in robotics manufacturing.  This gives us a tremendous price advantage.

We intend to market our complex widget through all the normal channels available to simple widgets.  These include retail, wholesale, and OEM.  To penetrate this market efficiently and swiftly, we intend to initially use commission sales representatives strategically located throughout the USA.  We also will start a national advertising campaign targeting the end user in various national publications and on national TV commercials.

Our sales representatives will be chosen based on their own experience in the marketplace.  It is our intention to hire the best and the brightest among those currently available.  Our marketing tests included many of the reps we initially would like to hire.

Over the past few years, we have noticed an increase in demand for full lawn care services - not just grass cutting and snow removal.  Our computerized office allows us to track our clients needs and schedule house calls on one hours notice.

We intend to attack this market very aggressively through the use of:

1.   A pool of 10 telemarketers.

2.   House-to-house visits to neighbors of present clients.

3.   Advertisements in upscale magazines.

4.   Radio advertisements on weekends.

5.   Sales calls on real estate management companies.

As we are offering a unique service, informing the public of our capabilities is of utmost importance.

Growth Strategy

After having successfully introduced the complex widget into the American market, our expansion will be in two separate areas: increasing sales in the USA and enter

ing various foreign markets.

After we have reached our first year sales goals, we intend to offer our sales reps the opportunity to sell our products exclusively by joining our company.  We expect that a small percentage will desire to remain independent and these will have to be replaced with our own sales force.  We intend to develop further sales reps from within by hiring and training them in our own sales methods.  We will increase national advertising and begin targeting smaller accounts and specialty outlets.  Additionally, we will conduct in house seminars for various OEM’s demonstrating how the inclusion of complex widgetry into their own products will increase the value of their products.

After having successfully completed this entry phase into this market in the geographical are we have chosen, we will then expand our market by doing the following:

1.   Expand telemarketing pool to 20.

2.   Increase number of direct sales reps.

3.   Expand into neighboring cities.

Market Size and Share

The American market for [product/service] is estimated at $8 Billion annual sales based on data furnished by XYZ Survey.  We estimate that we can achieve XX% market share within XX years.

Marketing data for other markets is in the process of collection.

Other Markets

Use the same format for additional markets.

Targeting New Markets

To continue our growth, we will be using the following methods to expand our markets and to increase our new areas of doing business:

§  Customer contact - find out their needs

§  Look for complementary products

§  Trade shows

§  World Trade Center “Network”

§  U.S. Government trade leads

§  State Government trade leads

§  On-line computer prospecting and qualification    (DIALOG, D&B, etc.)

§  Market surveys

§  Research & development

Location

RETAIL EXAMPLE:

This business will be operated at 123 Any Street.  This location is desirable because:

1. The traffic flow has been rated at high.

2. The rent is below market

3. The building has the necessary facilities to operate this business.

4. The location is convenient for our customers.

We are renting this building on a XX year lease.  We will have renovations costing $XXX based upon three estimates.  The building is zoned R-3, commercial use.

OTHER SAMPLE:

This business will be operated at 123 Any Street.  This location is desirable because:

1. The building is structurally compatible for our use.

2. The rent is below market

3. The building has the necessa

Your business plan is very often the first impression potential investors get about your venture. But even if you have a great product, team, and customers, it could also be the last impression the investor gets if you make any of these avoidable mistakes.

INVESTORS see thousands of business plans each year, even in this down market. Apart from a referral from a trusted source, the business plan is the only basis they have for deciding whether or not to invite an entrepreneur to their offices for an initial meeting.

With so many opportunities, most investors simply focus on finding reasons to say no. They reason that entrepreneurs who know what they are doing will not make fundamental mistakes. Every mistake counts against you.

This article shows you how to avoid the most common errors found in business plans.

Content Mistakes

Failing to relate to a true pain

Pain comes in many flavors: my computer network keeps crashing; my accounts receivable cycle is too long; existing treatments for a medical condition are ineffective; my tax returns are too hard to prepare. Businesses and consumers pay good money to make pain go away.

You are in business to get paid for making pain go away.

Pain, in this setting, is synonymous with market opportunity. The greater the pain, the more widespread the pain, and the better your product is at alleviating the pain, the greater your market potential.

A well written business plan places the solution firmly in the context of the problem being solved.

Value inflation

Phrases like “unparalleled in the industry;” “unique and limited opportunity;” or “superb returns with limited capital investment” - taken from actual documents - are nothing but assertions and hype.

Investors will judge these factors for themselves. Lay out the facts - the problem, your solution, the market size, how you will sell it, and how you will stay ahead of competitors - and lay off the hype.
