6 essential parts of a business plan
All business plans will be different, but there are parts that all plans should include.
The list below is the list from the video above. You might find some of these parts called slightly different names, but these items below are included in all complete business plans. No bank is going to make a loan and no investors are going to part with any of their cash to an entrepreneur who does not have a business plan. The better your business plan, the better the chance of getting that much needed start up cash!

Pick a Business
You will be making a Business Plan. A simple business plan. Something so that when you get out into the world and decide that you would like to work for yourself you will have an idea of where to begin.
So the first thing you need to do is to come up with a business idea. It does not have to be a NEW idea - it can be something that you always wanted to do - like a bakery or a sports gym or a pizza place. I have always thought it would be great to own a coffeeshop/bookstore. So be thinking about that - don't spend a lot of time on your choice. If you can't think of anything then pick one from my suggestions below.

Read carefully - ask for help if you need it!
Read carefully - ask for help if you need it!
1. start the microsoft excel program.
Watch this video and do what it does.
Save the workbook to your folder on the shares drive. name the file wkbk1.
my version is older than yours - you may have to look around for the fill feature.
Make sure you save the file -
that is the only way you will get credit for it!
ASk each other for help!
2. go and open the powerpoint program.
look through the design templates and choose one. you are going to design a powerpoint presentation to give to class on the topic of your choice - it should go without saying that the topic must be appropriate!
There should not be too many words on your presentation - no one likes to read a presentation!
You will narrate and explain as you present
it to the class.
it is much more interesting to hear a presenter speak than it is to read words on a screen.
no more than 5 slides. this is a practice for me to see where your presentation giving skills are.
save this presentation in your folder on the shares drive and call it PP and your initials.
So mine would be ppcc, for example.
Carefully read your progress report.
Think of this report as your own personal "To DO List."
many of you need to work on your websites!
be sure to REDO THE WORK OF ANY FAILING GRADES.
ASK CLASSMATES FOR HELP IF YOU NEED IT.
