Help with your business plan

The best business plans aren’t long and complex; they explain only the most important information – what you want to achieve, how you will get there and the things you need to do along the way. It’s best to tackle a business plan in small chunks. The Prince’s Trust Business Plan Pack can help. 

The Business Plan Pack dividies a business plan into sections. The guide explains the information that you need to complete each section. The business plan gives you a template to structure your plan. The pack is available to download below.  Some of the sections of the business plan have tables to record the financial parts of your business. The tables are available separately in MS Excel format and the sums in these are automatic.
