Presentation of a business plan

The general rules of presenting a business plan are:

  • A business plan should be easy and interesting to read, so avoid excessive detail or length
  • Ensure the plan meets the needs of its users and key stakeholders
  • One person should write the plan to ensure consistency of style
  • Although the executive summary is at the beginning of the plan, it should be written last
  • Do not leave any apparent questions unanswered or state any unsupported conclusions
