📋 TYPES OF BUSINESS PLANS

Traditional Business Plan
20-40 pages, comprehensive detail
Best for: Bank loans, investors, formal pitches
Includes: Full financial projections, market research

Lean Startup Plan
1-2 pages, key elements only
Best for: Testing ideas, agile businesses
Includes: Value proposition, key metrics, channels

One-Page Business Plan
Single page overview
Best for: Internal clarity, quick reference
Includes: Vision, goals, strategies, actions

Operational Plan
Focuses on execution and processes
Best for: Running day-to-day operations
Includes: Workflows, resources, timelines

Strategic Plan
Long-term direction and goals
Best for: Growth planning, team alignment

💡 CHOOSING THE RIGHT FORMAT
Seeking investment? → Traditional
Testing a new idea? → Lean Startup
Need internal clarity? → One-Page
Managing operations? → Operational
Planning long-term growth? → Strategic

⚠️ COMMON MISTAKE
Don't overcomplicate it. Start with a lean or one-page plan to get clarity, then expand to a traditional plan if you need funding.
