Module 5d: Sample Business Plans

Sometimes the best learning tool is to look at what others have done.

The US Small Business Administration (SBA) co-endorsed website listed below provides links to 60 sample business plans. Follow the link to visit this site and choose a sample plan or plans to review. However, keep in mind that this exercise provides reference points for you to develop your own plan. It is your own business and so should be your own plan.

Instructions:

  1. Visit the link: http://www.bplans.com/samples/sba.cfm
  2. Scan the alphabetical list of business plan types
  3. Click on the business plan(s) you want to review
  4. Review the business plan outline and make notes regarding content that you view helpful to your own planning efforts
