“Preparing Your Presentation” – Week 13
Nancy Larsen, Enterprise Facilitator of SEFP
Once you have written your business plan you need to gather the
supporting information and attach copies in the appendix of the
business plan. Some of the information that may pertain to your project
includes
the following.
- Schedule of assets
- Personal Financial Statements
- Credit Report Releases
- Business and/or Personal Tax Returns
- Articles of Incorporation
or other form of business
- Copies of Orders or Invoices
- Customer Testimonials
- Trade References
- Banking References
- Title Reports (equipment, real estate, etc.)
- Asset Appraisals
- Patents, Trademarks or Licenses
Package the business plan professionally by using a Business Plan
cover and table of contents. Bind it to allow easy reading, tabbing
each section for direct access. Keep your information concise and
to the point. Pictures are worth a thousand words and therefore include
good ones. Support your assumptions with facts, not more assumptions.
Prepare yourself because first impressions are lasting so make a
good one.
Remember – “Education is learning from teachers and
books. Experience is learning from your mistakes”.
