A business plan does two jobs: it makes you think through the business before spending money, and it shows a bank or partner that you have. This kit gives you both halves, words and numbers.

The Excel planner

  • Startup Costs: deposit, interiors, equipment, opening stock, licences, launch marketing and a cash reserve
  • Fixed Costs: rent, salaries, power, internet, marketing, plus the loan EMI worked out from amount, rate and tenure
  • Forecast: customers per day growing month by month, sales, gross profit, profit and cash at month end for 12 months
  • Answers: year-1 sales and profit, the first profitable month and the lowest cash point, with a chart

The Word plan

Nine sections with prompts: summary, the business, customers and market, competition, marketing, operations and licences, money, risks and milestones.

FAQ

Questions about this product

Can I use it for a bank loan?

Yes, as your business plan. For term loans, banks often also want a project report with 5-year projections and DSCR; see our Project Report for Bank Loan.

Is it only for cafes?

No. The sample is a cafe, but customers per day and average bill fit any shop, salon, clinic, tuition centre or service business.

What if cash goes negative?

The plan needs more funds, lower startup or fixed costs, or more realistic sales. Change the inputs until the lowest cash stays above zero.

Does the Word file work in Google Docs?

Yes.

Can I change the months?

The forecast covers the first 12 months from opening.

How do I get the files after payment?

A download button appears on screen right after payment, and the link is emailed to you. You can also download again any time from My account.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. It works with Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, WPS Office, Word / Google Docs. Free mobile apps are enough.
