Front of Business
Plan
The front parts of most business plans comprise the following:
Although these five items appear at the very start of a plan,
their drafting may be deferred until the Body of the
plan and its Appendices have been completed.
Even if the Basic Information and Introduction are drafted at an
earlier stage, the Summary should not be written until the entire plan
has been finalized.
Once you have addressed these front parts, you should advance to
the Body which contains the 'nuts and bolts' of your
plan.
