Samenvatting

The ultimate purpose of developing a business plan is to have a successful business. In the long run, it is fruitless to write a business plan that can raise the funds you seek if your enterprise is so poorly conceived it is bound to fail. So a successful business plan should address the long–term needs of your business and devise strategies that enhance both the overall performance of your company and your personal satisfaction.
