Here is an interactive planner for. It's a great resource as you can pick and choose which sections apply, but provides you with all sections necessary for a full business plan. Just thought I'd share.

Thank you for posting this site. It looks very helpful and I am in process of drawing up my business plan. One question: once I register, will I start getting emails regarding Canadian business? I am from Massachusetts, USA and emails from Canada may not apply.

Hi OfficeAlly,

No worries on the emails, I have yet to receive a single email regarding anything. It is a great resource to have available, no matter where you are from, I hope that you find it helpful. Good luck with your business plan.

Although this is an old thread, I just wanted to take a moment to resurrect it because I am finding this resource to be very good. It's very user friendly, and has great suggestions and examples for each of the sections.

I was sooo intimidated to start on my biz plan - but this is helping so much. I'm able to stay focused and work my way through it in an organized manner.

Thanks for the resource EliteVA!
Pam
