The Business Plan


The first step once you've decided to acquire a company is to work on your business plan. As explained in Article 4.2, "Managing the Development Process," you have to make a plan.

The business plan is not only a document that you will use to define what you will do with the company. It is also a plan used to get capital for acquiring the business. Your business plan also helps you set priorities and define, in concrete terms, the reasons for (or against) acquiring this particular business.

Without a solid plan, life usually conspires to prevent you from getting where you are trying to go. The very act of planning, though, lays the groundwork for a flexible approach to a process. Almost assuredly, things will work out somewhat differently from your well-laid plan, but you absolutely must have a solid plan before proceeding. The process of developing the initial plan helps later on, when the plan has to be adapted to deal with changing circumstances.
