Bankable Business Plans

"Bankable Business Plans" is designed to help create a compelling business plan for any endeavor. It guides readers through a comprehensive, step-by-step process to produce professional-quality business plans to attract the financial backing entrepreneurs need, no matter what their dream. A handbook for creating a unique business plan, this guide reveals how to use and apply the actual Risk Management Association data and financial models which banks, venture capital firms, and the Small Business Administration use to evaluate and grant loans and make investments. Moreover, the book uses the example of an award-winning business plan and its financial projections to demonstrate how to put this type of business plan together. Edward Rogoff applies his years of experience with both startups and established companies to explain and outline the features that make a business plan attractive to investors and lenders. This book is intended for professionals seeking help in preparing for and overcoming all financial, legal and social hurdles in starting a business.
