The Executive Summary is Crucial- please read!
For the final version of your business plan (Assignment 4), you will have to write an executive summary.
This is the most important piece of the business plan because investors look at it first and decide, based on what you wrote, if they want to look further into your business plan.
The Executive Summary:
should highlight the key aspects of each section of the business plan and provide specific information (not generic).
should not exceed 2 pages.
should be clear, concise, and compelling
should impress the reader and persuade them to read further
use a positive, confident tone, demonstrating you are well-positioned for success
use bold subheadings just as indicated in the sample executive summaries from your textbook pages 62 and 65.
Learning to write a well-written summary is important in business in other areas as well. As an employee, it can show that you are able to extract what is important and present it clearly. This can get you noticed and promoted.
