Summary of Key Features

• New tools and techniques backed up with hundreds of examples of their application across all technologies
• Focuses on how the business will work, rather than on how to write a business plan
• A business plan briefing is created before a business plan is written (the briefing is a multi-purpose communications tool that is easy to update and lengthen or shorten, depending upon the audience and need). Having to create a briefing forces clear thinking and generates essential data for the business plan, making the latter much easier to write.
• Top-down and bottom-up planning and thinking for the financial plans (and a focus on the only line in the financial statements that really matters at a new venture’s start)
• Not centered on only venture capital investors also to customers, suppliers, angels and investors.
