What is a Business Plan?

A business plan is an official document in which your objectives and development strategy are set out.

It is in a way the transition from idea to reality , to the concrete creation of the project. A Business Plan allows you to launch your business in good conditions but also to be granted financial contributions more easily.

A business plan answers a number of questions :

Is there a demand for my product, service? What will my strategy be? How will my business be structured ? How do I formulate my operational plan ? What is the amount of my investment ? What type of cost will I face? What is the expected return on investment (ROI)? How soon ?

What is a Business Plan and is it important?

What’s the point ?

A business plan is essential , it is the key to achieving balanced growth while limiting risks as much as possible. It is clear that entrepreneurs who launch their project with a business plan succeed on average more than those who do without. Indeed, the 3-year sustainability rate of companies that have been designed from a Business Plan is over 80% . Choosing this support means: Knowing your market : it is important to know if there is a demand for the product or service you want to market. Being aware of the trends of the market in which you wish to establish yourself is also necessary ( technological innovations, competitor strategy , etc.)

  • Lay the foundations of the organization : a Business Plan requires you to know who will be the team on the project , what will be the business model of the company but also its legal status . All these elements allow for a clearly defined and thus more efficient organization.
  • Ensure the financial viability of the project : by defining your future turnover and your future costs, you will have a more or less precise idea of the financial relevance of the project .
  • Attract future partners and have easier access to financial contributions : in addition to showing that the target market is relevant and that your project is financially viable, the Business Plan will demonstrate your motivation to see this project come to fruition . These elements will encourage future partners to accompany you as well as financial institutions.
  • Compare the achievements to the forecasts : having the role of roadmap, the Business Plan allows you to follow the evolution of your project and to redirect the actions if necessary.
