BUSINESS PLAN OUTLINE
Use the following outline to summarize your business planning
decisions. Title each section of your written plan as indicated in the
outline. Write, in your own words. Answers to the questions listed.
Each question can be the start of a new paragraph. If a question does
not apply, explain why it does not apply.

how it is written. Write the most clear and simple answers you can to
