Business Plans
Almost every good idea needs a little bit of funding to get going. But what’s the best way to create a proposal that’s appealing to potential funders? When you’re trying to implement an idea or grow your work, you should be clear about three things. The problem you want to address. The vision of how you will address it.
And why you are the best person to do it. A business plan is a structured way to capture this information. It should cover everything a funding partner might be interested in. An introduction to your management team, a marketing plan, and an operation and financial plan. This way they can be confident about where their money will go.
Cash flow Projections
A cashflow forecast is essentially a cashbook that forecasts a business’s earnings and expenses for a specified time period in the foreseeable future, for instance 7 days, thirty day period, quarterly or annually.
