Sample Business Plan
Please click on the links below for samples of our work. The first is a plan for a primary care medical clinic in Hawaii.
The second is a sample of how to construct financial projections for a business plan. In this case we provide a spreadsheet with financial projections for a retail florist shop.
How Much Does a Business Plan Cost?
The cost of a business plan depends on the complexity of the company and the size of the ask. I have written plans for a beauty salon seeking $50,000, and for a DNA sequencing lab seeking $50 million. Those are two very different plans and require very different business models, research and financial analysis. I once spent a week determining the cost of a single bottle of water for a desalination factory!
A BALL PARK figure for a plan is $5,000, which includes:
- Executive Summary
- Organization Purpose & Resources: Background on the company, business model, resources, structure, plans for future and related entities.
- Market Research: the market in Hawaii, outlook and trends, Oahu and State-wide.
- Competition Analysis: Existing options and pricing, business opportunities, barriers and risks.
- Marketing Plan: who and how a target market may be approached.
- Management Personnel: Qualifications & background, technical & business skills necessary to the successful advancement of the project.
- Financial Projections, generally 3 years, including profit and loss, cash flow and break-even analyses.
