Customer Reviews: Read 4 more reviews... How to Write a Business Plan - Superb! November 19, 2008 This is just great that I can spend very little on a BRAND NEW BOOK and save money every time I come to Amazon.com. Just the best thing ever! Mind boggling for those shy at math December 14, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful Still ripping away at this one, mainly toilet reading for me. We'll see if it generates any good ideas. hmmmmmmm It's a step-by-step primer no entrepreneur should be without! May 19, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful There are plenty of basic books on the market on how to write a business plan: but how many come branded with the Nolo Press badge of authoritative presentations; and how many provide an accompanying cd-rom with spreadsheets to help forecast cash flow, sales revenue and profit and loss - plus three sample business plans which can be plugged in and modified for personal needs? It's a step-by-step primer no entrepreneur should be without! Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch Writing Bankable Business Plan May 16, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful The book is a step-by-step guide on how to write a practical business plan particularly for entrepreneur starting a business. The reader is guided through the interrelated elements of a typical plan. These elements are the mission, market, competition, self-evaluation, opportunities, objectives, strategies, programmes, goals, resources and financials. The book has several examples from actual strategic plans, making it easy for the reader to understand the subject fully. The course is easy to follow and will help you think through your business and come up with a bankable business plan. This is a well-written and thorough self-help book that will lead you through the business plan writing process. After reading the book, its several examples and worksheets, you should be able to present a convincing business plan with well-laid out financials that should be convincing, understandable and impressive to banks and investors. The book is an excellent companion for the entrepreneur that is well worth having. Almost Addictive August 27, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful While writing a business plan, I spent two intense weeks with this book, reading and writing furiously every day. I came to understand phrases that had eluded me such as cash flow, profit and loss forecast, and gross profit percentage. It took me step by step through the process using simple, highly readable language, and short and interesting examples. The tear out forms in the back for filling in numbers are invaluable, and for the first time, while filling in the profit and loss forecast, the term "bottom line" took on real significance. The author also includes other extensive resources for new business owners and an excellent index. Scattered throughout are axioms and pieces of advice that I found truly helpful. Whether I succeed with this business or not is still up in the air, but it won't be for lack of having a good business plan!
