The purpose of the Business Development Guide is to provide business proponents, and those who work with them, with a tool to assist in the business development process.

The guide is divided into five main areas:

  • Exploring the Idea;
  • Evaluating the Idea - Feasibility;
  • Developing the Business Plan;
  • Implementing Your Business Plan; and
  • Ongoing Business Management.

This guide is not intended to be a complete list of all available resources. Rather, the guide outlines a process and highlights some key resources that may be helpful.

Business Plan Guide

A business plan is a business development map. Not only does it show your end destination, but it maps out your travel path. It sets out realistic goals and a stable path. The purpose of the business plan is to:

  • Help you think through the venture and ensure that you have considered all options and anticipated any potential difficulties.
  • Serve as an operating guide as you turn your ideas into a viable business.
  • Aid in arranging strategic alliances and obtaining contracts.
  • Convince potential funding programs managers, lenders and investors that the proposed venture has merit and that you are in control of the project.

The Business Plan Guide provides a suggested outline of the material that should be included in your business plan. However, the final product will need to be tailored to fit the circumstances of your business.
