1. plan summary

The plan summary is listed in front of the business plan, which is the essence of the condensed business plan. The outline of the plan covers the main points of the plan, making it clear at a glance, so that readers can review the plan and make judgments in the shortest time.

The outline of the plan generally includes the following contents: company introduction; Main products and business scope; Market overview; Marketing strategy; Sales plan; Production management plan; Managers and their organizations; Financial plan; Capital demand, etc.

When introducing an enterprise, we should first explain the idea of establishing a new enterprise, the formation process of new ideas, the goal and development strategy of the enterprise. Secondly, it is necessary to explain the present situation, past background and business scope of the enterprise. In this part, we should objectively comment on the past situation of the enterprise, and avoid the heavy and light. A pertinent analysis can often win more trust, which makes it easy for people to agree with the business plan of the enterprise. Finally, it is necessary to introduce the background, experience, experience and expertise of entrepreneurial entrepreneurs themselves. The quality of entrepreneurs often plays a key role in the performance of enterprises. Here, entrepreneurs should try to highlight their own advantages and show a strong enterprising spirit in order to leave a good impression on investors.

In the plan summary, the enterprise must also answer the following questions: (1) the industry in which the enterprise is located, the nature and scope of its operation; (two) the contents of the main products of the enterprise; (3) Where is the market of the enterprise, who are the customers and what are the demands; (4) Who are the partners and investors of the enterprise; (5) Who are the competitors of the enterprise and what influence the competitors have on the development of the enterprise.

Try to be concise and vivid. In particular, it is necessary to explain in detail the differences between their own enterprises and the market factors for their success. If an entrepreneur knows what he has done, just two pages of summary is enough. If the entrepreneur doesn't know what he is doing, the summary may be more than 20 pages. Therefore, some investors "pick out wheat from chaff" according to the length of the abstract.

2. Product (service) introduction

When evaluating investment projects, investors are most concerned about whether and to what extent the products, technologies or services of venture enterprises can solve real-life problems, or whether the products (services) of venture enterprises can help customers save money and increase income. Therefore, product introduction is an important part of business plan. Product introduction should generally include the following contents: the concept, performance and characteristics of the product; Introduction of main products; Market competitiveness of products; Product development process; Plan and cost analysis of developing new products; Market prospect forecast of products; Brand and patent of products.

In the part of product (service) introduction, entrepreneurs should explain the product (service) in detail, which should be accurate and easy to understand, so that non-professional investors can understand it. In general, product introduction should be accompanied by product prototype, photos or other introductions. Generally speaking, product introduction must answer the following questions: (1) What problems do customers want the products of the enterprise to solve, and what benefits can customers get from the products of the enterprise? (2) What are the advantages and disadvantages of the enterprise's products compared with those of competitors? Why do customers choose their own products? (3) What protection measures have the enterprise taken for its products, what patents and licenses the enterprise has, or what agreements have been reached with the manufacturers applying for patents? (4) Why can the pricing of enterprise products make enterprises generate enough profits, and why do users buy enterprise products in large quantities? (5) What methods do enterprises adopt to improve the quality and performance of products, and what plans do enterprises have for developing new products, etc.

The content of product (service) introduction is more specific, so it is easier to write. Although it is necessary to praise one's products to promote sales, it should be noted that every promise of an enterprise is a kind of "debt" and should be fulfilled with efforts. Please remember that entrepreneurs and investors have established a long-term partnership. Empty promises can only be complacent for a while. If an enterprise can't fulfill its promise and repay its debts, its reputation will be greatly damaged, so it is despised by real entrepreneurs.

3. Personnel and organizational structure

With products, the second step for entrepreneurs is to form an effective management team. The quality of enterprise management directly determines the size of enterprise management risk. High-quality managers and good organizational structure are important guarantees for managing enterprises well. Therefore, venture capitalists will pay special attention to the evaluation of management team.

Managers of enterprises should complement each other and have team spirit. An enterprise must have professionals in charge of product design and development, marketing, production and operation management, corporate finance and so on. In the business plan, it is necessary to define the main managers, introduce their abilities, their duties and responsibilities in the enterprise, and their past detailed experiences and background. In addition, in this part of the business plan, the company structure should also be briefly introduced, including: the organization chart of the company; Functions and responsibilities of various departments; Heads of departments and main members; The company's salary system; List of shareholders of the company, including stock options, proportions and privileges; Board members of the company; Background information of directors.

4. Market forecast

When an enterprise wants to develop a new product or expand a new market, it must first make a market forecast. If the forecast results are not optimistic, or the reliability of the forecast is in doubt, then investors will have to take greater risks, which is unacceptable to most venture capitalists. Market forecast must first predict the demand: is there any demand for this product in the market? Can the degree of demand bring the expected benefits to the enterprise? How big is the new market? What is the future trend of demand development and its state? What are the factors that affect demand? Secondly, the market forecast should also include the market competition? Analyze the competition pattern faced by enterprises: Who are the main competitors in the market? Is there a market gap that is beneficial to the products of this enterprise? What is the expected market share of this enterprise? How will our competitors react when we enter the market and what impact will these reactions have on the enterprise? Wait a minute. In the business plan, the market forecast should include the following contents: a summary of the current market situation; Overview of competitors; Target customers and target markets; The market position of the products of this enterprise; Market area and characteristics, etc. The market forecast of venture enterprises should be based on rigorous and scientific market research. The market faced by venture enterprises is inherently more unstable and unpredictable. Therefore, venture enterprises should strive to expand the scope of information collection, attach importance to environmental prediction, and adopt scientific prediction means and methods. Venture entrepreneurs should bear in mind that market prediction is not imaginary, and the understanding of market errors is one of the most important reasons for the failure of enterprises.

5. Market strategy

Marketing is the most challenging link in enterprise management, and the main factors affecting marketing strategies are: (1) the characteristics of consumers; (2) the characteristics of the product; (three) the enterprise itself; (4) Market environment factors. What ultimately affects marketing strategy is marketing cost and marketing benefit. In the business plan, the marketing strategy should include the following contents: (1) the choice of market institutions and marketing channels; (2) Marketing team and management; (3) Promotion plan and advertising strategy; (4) Price decision. For start-ups, it is difficult to enter the stable sales channels of other enterprises because of the low visibility of products and enterprises. Therefore, enterprises have to temporarily adopt high-cost and low-benefit marketing strategies, such as door-to-door sales, commodity advertising, giving profits to wholesalers and retailers, or giving them to any enterprise willing to distribute. For developing enterprises, on the one hand, they can use the original sales channels, on the other hand, they can also develop new sales channels to adapt to the development of enterprises.

6. Manufacturing plan

The manufacturing plan in the business plan should include the following contents: the current situation of product manufacturing and technical equipment; New product production plan; Requirements for technical upgrading and equipment updating; Quality control and quality improvement plan.

In the process of seeking funds, in order to increase the evaluation value of enterprises before investment, venture entrepreneurs should try their best to make the production and manufacturing plan more detailed and reliable. Generally speaking, the manufacturing plan should answer the following questions: what are the factories and equipment needed for the enterprise's manufacturing; How to ensure the stability and reliability of new products when they enter mass production; Who is the supplier for the introduction and installation of equipment; What is the design and product assembly of the production line? Lead time and resource requirements of suppliers; Formulation of production cycle standards and production operation plans; Material demand plan and its guarantee measures; What is the method of quality control? Other related issues.

7. Financial planning

Financial planning needs to spend more energy on specific analysis, including the preparation of cash flow statement, balance sheet and income statement. Liquidity is the lifeline of an enterprise, so when an enterprise starts or expands, it needs careful planning in advance and strict control in the process; The income statement reflects the profitability of the enterprise, which is the operating result of the enterprise after a period of operation; The balance sheet reflects the state of the enterprise at a certain moment, and investors can use the ratio index obtained from the data in the balance sheet to measure the operating status and possible return on investment of the enterprise.

Financial planning generally includes the following contents: (1) conditional assumptions of business plans; (2) Expected balance sheet; Estimated income statement; Analysis of cash receipts and payments; Source and use of funds.

It can be said that a business plan summarizes what venture entrepreneurs need to do in the process of financing, while financial planning is the support and explanation of the business plan. Therefore, a good financial planning is very important for evaluating the amount of funds needed by venture enterprises and improving the possibility of obtaining funds for venture enterprises. If the financial planning is not fully prepared, it will give investors the impression that enterprise managers are inexperienced, reduce the evaluation value of risky enterprises, and increase the operational risk of enterprises. So how to do a good job in financial planning? This first depends on the long-term planning of venture enterprises? Whether to create a new product for a new market or to enter an existing market with more financial information.

It is impossible for a startup enterprise that focuses on a new technology or innovative product to refer to the data, price and marketing methods of the existing market. Therefore, it should predict the growth rate and possible net profit of the market it enters, and sell its ideas, management team and financial model to investors. A venture enterprise preparing to enter the existing market can easily explain the scale of the whole market and the ways to improve it. Venture enterprises can plan the sales scale of the first year on the basis of obtaining the target market information.

The financial planning of an enterprise should be consistent with the assumptions in the business plan. In fact, financial planning is closely related to enterprise's production plan, human resource plan and marketing plan. To complete the financial planning, we must clarify the following issues:

(1) What is the product output in each period?

(2) When will the product line expansion start?

(3) What is the production cost of each product?

(4) What is the price of each product?

(5) What distribution channels are used, and what are the expected costs and profits?

(6) What kind of people do you need to hire?

(7) When to start employment and what is the salary budget? Wait a minute.

Third, check

After the business plan is written, venture entrepreneurs had better check the plan again to see if they can accurately answer investors' questions and win investors' confidence in the enterprise. In general, you can check the plan from the following aspects:

1. Does your business plan show that you have experience in managing a company? If you lack the ability to manage the company yourself, it clearly means that you have hired a business master to manage your company.

2. Does your business plan show your ability to repay the loan? Ensure that a complete ratio analysis is provided to potential investors.

Does your business plan show that you have done a complete market analysis? Let investors firmly believe that the product requirements stated in your plan are true.

4. Is your business plan easy for investors to understand? The business plan should have an index and a table of contents, so that investors can refer to each chapter more easily. In addition, we should also ensure that the information flow in the catalogue is logical and realistic.

5. Do you have a plan summary in your business plan and put it at the front? The plan summary is equivalent to the cover of the company's business plan, and investors will read it first. In order to keep the interest of investors, the plan summary should be attractive.

6. Is your business plan grammatically correct? If you can't guarantee it, you'd better have someone check it for you. Misspellings and typographical errors in the plan will make entrepreneurs lose opportunities quickly.

7. Can your business plan dispel investors' doubts about products/services? A product model can be prepared if necessary. All aspects of the business plan will have an impact on the success of fund-raising. Therefore, if you lack confidence in the success of your business plan, you'd better consult the plan writing guide or consult a special consultant.

Advertising should spread advertising information through certain media. Different advertising media have different advertising costs, advertising design, advertising strategies and advertising effects. In addition, different advertising media will produce different advertising effects when used in different time and place or in different combinations. Therefore, media planning books are often needed in advertising activities.

1, the form of media plan books can also be divided into two categories. One is the form, which is usually filled out by the advertising subject. The horizontal column is the month and the vertical column is the media name. That is, fill out the monthly media plan separately. Newspaper media take the number of columns and rows as the unit of measurement, TV broadcast media take seconds/times as the unit of measurement, and other media are calculated according to the corresponding units of measurement. The other is to write the media plan into written materials. Only media planning books with written descriptions are introduced here.

2. The content of the media planning book can be roughly divided into five parts:

(1) Preface or abstract; (2) Background comments and situation analysis; (3) Media purpose or media goal; (4) media strategy; (5) Planning description.

In the preface, the basic strategies and elements of media planning are reviewed. The background comment and situation analysis briefly describe the market situation of products (services), summarize the marketing objectives and advertising objectives, and explain the creative direction. The purpose of the media is to make a clear and operable statement on the goals or objectives to be achieved by the media plan. In the part of media strategy, it summarizes how to achieve media goals from the aspects of media selection, media cooperation, frequency arrangement of advertising time slots and cost allocation. In the part of plan description, the implementation elements of media plan and the reasons for choosing various strategies and media are expounded. All tactical practices can be included in this section.

3. It should be noted that the above five parts are not static and can be increased or decreased according to specific conditions. The purpose of writing a media plan book is to let relevant personnel know the specific operation and function of the media in advertising activities.

[Edit this paragraph] The basic format of the planning book

First, the name of the plan.

Write the planning name as specifically as possible, such as "XX University Activity Planning Book", and put it in the center of the page. Of course, you can write the main title first, and then write the subtitle below.

Second, the background of the incident

According to the characteristics of the plan, this part should focus on the following matters: specific items include: basic introduction, main implementation targets, recent situation, organizational departments, reasons for activities, social impact, related motives, etc. Secondly, it is necessary to explain the environmental characteristics of the problem, mainly considering the internal advantages, disadvantages, opportunities and threats of the environment, making a comprehensive analysis (SWOT analysis), focusing on various factors of environmental analysis, describing the past and present situation in detail, and making plans through forecasting the situation. If the environment is unknown, it should be analyzed and supplemented through investigation and study.

The purpose and significance of the activity should be clearly expressed in concise and clear language; When stating the main points of the purpose, the uniqueness of the core composition or planning of the activity and the resulting significance (economic benefits, social benefits, media effects, etc.). ) write clearly. The activity objectives should be specific, and need to meet the importance, feasibility and timeliness.

Four. resource demand

List the manpower and material resources needed, including the places to use them, such as using the activity center. It can be divided into two parts: existing resources and needed resources.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) activity

As the main body of the plan, the expression should be concise and easy to understand, but the expression should be detailed, and everything that can be thought of should be written, and nothing can be omitted. In this part, not only words, but also statistical charts can be added. The planned work items should be arranged in chronological order, and drawing the implementation schedule is helpful to the verification of the plan. The organization and allocation of personnel, the object of activities, the corresponding rights and responsibilities, time and place should also be explained in this part, and the emergency procedures to be implemented should also be considered in this part.

Some reference aspects can be provided here: venue layout, reception room, guest seating, sponsorship mode, contract agreement, media support, campus publicity, advertising production, hosting, leadership speech, emcee, venue service, electronic background, lighting, sound, video recording, information contact, technical support, order maintenance, clothing, command center, on-site atmosphere adjustment, pick-up and drop-off vehicles, post-game personnel cleaning and so on. Please adjust yourself according to the actual situation.

Intransitive verb budget

The activity expenses are listed in a clear form after detailed calculation according to the actual situation.

Vii. Problems and details that should be paid attention to in the activity.

The change of internal and external environment will inevitably bring some uncertain factors to the implementation of the plan. Therefore, whether there are emergency measures when the environment changes, what is the loss probability and how much loss will be caused, and the emergency measures should also be explained in the plan.

Eight. The person in charge of the activity and the main participants

Indicate the name of the organizer, participants, guests and units (for group planning, indicate the name of the group and the person in charge).

Nine. Precautions:

1. This plan provides basic reference, and the small plan can be filled in directly; Large-scale planning books can be designed by themselves, not rigidly adhere to the form, and strive for detailed content and beautiful pages;

2, you can make a cover for the planning book, and strive to be concise and dignified; The planning book can be packaged, such as using the designed logo as the header, illustrated and so on;

3. If there are attachments, they can be attached to the back of the planning book or bound separately;

4. The planning book should be bound from the long side of the paper;

5. A big plan book can have several sub-plans.

The writing method of planning book:

The business plan must state:

(1) What is the purpose of starting a business? Why take risks and spend energy, time, resources and funds to start a business?

(2) What funds are needed for starting a business? Why so much money? Why is it worthwhile for investors to inject funds into this? For established venture enterprises, business plans can set more specific directions and priorities for the development of enterprises, let employees know the business objectives of enterprises and encourage them to work hard for the same goal. More importantly, it can make the investors, suppliers and sellers of the enterprise know the operating conditions and objectives of the enterprise, and persuade investors (old or new) to provide funds for the further development of the enterprise.

In order to ensure that the business plan can "hit the target", venture entrepreneurs should do the following:

1. Focus on products

In the business plan, all details related to the products or services of the enterprise should be provided, including all surveys conducted by the enterprise. These questions include: What stage of development is the product in? What is its uniqueness? What is the method for enterprises to distribute products? Who will use the products of the enterprise and why? What is the production cost and price of the product? What is the enterprise's plan to develop modern new products? Pull investors into the products or services of enterprises, so that investors will be interested in products like venture entrepreneurs. In business plans, entrepreneurs should try to describe everything in simple language. The definition and attributes of commodities are very clear to entrepreneurs, but others may not know their meaning. The purpose of making a business plan is not only to convince investors that the products of the enterprise will have a revolutionary impact in the world, but also to convince them that the enterprise has arguments to prove this. The description of the product in the business plan should make investors feel: "Oh, how wonderful and inspiring this product is!"

2. Dare to compete

In the business plan, venture entrepreneurs should carefully analyze the situation of competitors. Who are the competitors? How do their products work? What are the similarities and differences between competitors' products and our own products? What are the marketing strategies adopted by competitors? It is necessary to clarify the sales, gross profit, income and market share of each competitor, and then discuss the competitive advantage of this enterprise relative to each competitor. It is necessary to show investors that customers prefer this enterprise because its products are of good quality, fast delivery, moderate positioning and reasonable price. The business plan should convince its readers that this enterprise is not only a strong competitor in the industry, but also a leader in setting industry standards in the future. In the business plan, entrepreneurs should also explain the risks brought by competitors and the countermeasures taken by enterprises.

Understand the market

A business plan should provide investors with an in-depth analysis and understanding of the target market. It is necessary to carefully analyze the influence of economic, geographical, occupational and psychological factors on consumers' choice to buy the products of this enterprise, and the role of each factor. The business plan should also include a major marketing plan, which should list the areas where the enterprise intends to carry out advertising, promotion and public relations activities, and specify the budget and income of each activity. The business plan should also briefly describe the sales strategy of the enterprise: does the enterprise use external sales representatives or internal employees? Does the enterprise use distributors, distributors or franchisees? What kind of sales training will the enterprise provide? In addition, the business plan should also pay special attention to the details of sales.

4. Indicate the direction of action

The enterprise's action plan should be unsolvable. The following questions should be made clear in the business plan: How can the enterprise push the products to the market? How to design production lines and assemble products? What raw materials do enterprises need for production? What production resources do enterprises need? What is the cost of production and equipment? Does the enterprise buy equipment or rent equipment? Explain the fixed and variable costs associated with product assembly, storage and delivery.

5. Show your management team

The key factor to turn an idea into a successful venture enterprise is to have a strong management team. The members of this team must have high professional and technical knowledge, management ability and many years of work experience, so as to give investors the feeling: "Look, who are these people in this team! If this company is a football team, they will always reach the World Cup finals! " The function of managers is to plan, organize, control and guide the company's actions to achieve its goals. In the business plan, we should first describe the whole management team and its responsibilities, then introduce the special talents, characteristics and achievements of each manager respectively, and describe in detail the contribution each manager will make to the company. The business plan should also specify the management objectives and organization chart.

6. Excellent plan summary

The plan summary in the business plan is also very important. It must make readers interested and eager to get more information, and it will leave a lasting impression on readers. The plan summary will be the last part written by venture entrepreneurs, but it is the content that investors should read first. It will extract the most relevant details from the plan, including a concise and vivid summary of the company's internal basic situation, the company's capabilities and limitations, the company's competitors, marketing and financial strategies and the company's management team. If the company is a book, it is like the cover of the book. If it is done well, it can attract investors. It will give venture capitalists the impression that "this company will become an industry giant, and I can't wait to read the rest of the plan".
