Dear Motivated Business Plan Writer,

How important is it for you to portray a professional and competent image to your prospective bankers or investors?

Really important, I'm betting.

After all, once you put something into writing and add your name to it, it becomes a direct extension of who you are and what you stand for as a person and/or professional.

With that, I've got very good news for you.

What I'm going to tell you about here is how a group of accountants, financiers and consultants in Europe and the United States developed what I consider to be the world’s largest collection of professionally written sample business plan templates. But they didn't stop there. They also pulled together a blockbuster list of 25 tools and information packets, guaranteed to let you quickly and easily produce industry specific, quality business plans, written just like a professional would.

And I'm NOT talking about the typical "copy and paste" fill-in-the blank generic business plan software and templates that, based on my research and testing, just don't measure up.

But, who am I to make such a claim?

Please let me briefly introduce myself.

My name is Mike Elia and for the past decade, I've had the privilege of working with some of the world’s top venture capital firms, investment banks and lending institutions. Firms like Credit Suisse First Boston and CitiBank Venture Capital. Investment bankers like Lehman Brothers, JPMorgan, and BankOne. I've also had the pleasure of transacting with some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the U.S.

My experience comes from serving as a chief financial officer and advisor for some of the companies owned by these investors.

My more than twenty years of experience encompasses operating, marketing, and financing businesses from start-ups to multi-national billion dollar conglomerates in industries such as: automotive components, consumer products, electronics and telecommunications components, home textiles, industrial manufacturing, professional services, and specialty publishing.

In addition, I'm the author of "Business Plan Secrets Revealed", a unique manual that empowers entrepreneurs and business owners to present their business ideas in ways that captivate investors and convince them to invest money in their venture. Finally, I'm a Certified Public Accountant and hold a Masters in Business Administration from Duke University's Fuqua School of Business.

Now that the introductions are over, I'm going to make every effort to keep the rest of this information short and to the point, giving you only the essential "need to know" facts about this enormous depository of sample business plan templates and tools.

What You Need To KNOW About
Business Plan Writing

Look I know first hand how frustrating it can be to start writing a business plan from a blank sheet of paper. Trying to figure out how best to build your case, what industry relevant data to gather or how best to describe your market. After all, I've written and presented business plans for over 17 successful merger and acquisition transactions worth $967 million and arranged for $760 million in financing from 1997 to 2003 alone and continue to build on this record.

But unless you're using an industry specific business plan, most business plan templates on the market today will only frustrate you more because they are too general. More importantly, they won't help you exploit the key information, data, terminology, or peculiarities of your specific industry and business.

Now, imagine if you could have access to a professionally written, sample business plan template crammed with informative insights and perspectives about your particular industry. Think of the time you could save and the knowledge you would gain working off a sample business plan template customized for your specific industry.

A Random Test Of These Plans
Revealed Comprehensive, Professionally Written Business Plans

How do I know that these Business-Planning-4-You.com sample business plan templates contain quality business plans and not generic templates?

Here’s why…I took it upon myself to reviewed four randomly selected business plans from their extensive list of sample business plan templates: Acupuncture, Building Construction, Dog Day Care, and Mushroom Growing.

And let me tell you, each plan had a complete table of contents that included an Executive Summary, Company Summary, Products/Services, Market Analysis Summary, Strategy and Implementation Summary, and Management Summary. And that’s only part of it. The content of each plan was specific to the selected industry. Each professionally written plan showed how and when to use industry data, what terminology to use, and pointed out key market data and trends that would satisfy the appetite of even the most sophisticated investor.

Of course, you still need to do your homework. You need to gather the precise statistics for your specific geographic region and your business itself.
