Plus, here's the legendary Sequoia Capital outline...

Venture capital firm Sequoia Capital posted this outline for a business plan several years ago:

  • Company purpose Start here: define your company in a single declarative sentence. This is harder than it looks. It’s easy to get caught up listing features instead of communicating your mission.
  • Problem Describe the pain of your customer. How is this addressed today and what are the shortcomings to current solutions.
  • Solution Explain your eureka moment. Why is your value prop unique and compelling? Why will it endure? And where does it go from here?
  • Why now? The best companies almost always have a clear why now? Nature hates a vacuum—so why hasn’t your solution been built before now?
  • Market potential Identify your customer and your market. Some of the best companies invent their own markets.
  • Competition / alternatives Who are your direct and indirect competitors. Show that you have a plan to win.
  • Business model How do you intend to thrive?
  • Team Tell the story of your founders and key team members.
  • Financials If you have any, please include.
  • Vision If all goes well, what will you have built in five years?
