Putting Business Plan Experts' Advice to Work


Image Source: http://patriotpartnerslp.com

My last blog post covered two experts’ views on fundamental points of business plan development. As promised, this week I will discuss how I plan to implement those key points into my own business plan. Martin Zwilling says to include an executive summary. I think the executive summary might be the single most important part of a business plan. My executive summary for Green Theater’s business plan will be very well written and it will entice investors to read the rest of the plan. It will give the investor an idea of what Green Theater does and how we do it. After reading the executive summary, investors will know if we could make a good team. Martin Zwilling also says that it is important to make sure that your business plan actually has a plan. Since Green Theater is a service based company, I will not have to worry about my plan becoming a glorified specification sheet. My plan will clearly lay out how we will make money and when operations will start. Investors will be happy to see this.

I also researched Mark Cuban for my last post. The fundamental points that Mark Cuban looks for in a business plan are the need for the product or service in society and if there is a market for that product or service. My business plan will show investors that now, more than ever, there is a need and a market for Green Theater’s services. Electronics have become inexpensive enough that everyone wants some audio / visual equipment integrated into their home. Also, being green is of utmost importance in today’s society. Green Theater will offer a green solution to customers looking to integrate electronics into their home. Mark Cuban also looks at the business plan to determine if it has potential for growth. Green Theater’s business plan will show that the potential for growth is huge.

Researching experts in the field of business plan development has taught me some key points that every business plan needs to have.
