What do we need to include in our business plan?

A business plan is a statement of your objectives and your projected viability including the identification of customer need, competition, staffing, financial data and timescale of work.

A business plan is a valuable tool for developing your business. It can be used for a variety of purposes, but essentially it is a management tool to help run the business as efficiently as possible and meet your organisations aims and objectives.
