Well, that business plan looks fairly similar (albeit more detailed) to the legally required plans I used to peruse as part of my old job. I've never been a ban

Well, that business plan looks fairly similar (albeit more detailed) to the legally required plans I used to peruse as part of my old job. I've never been a banker so I don't know what the business plans you're talking about look like
I do think the plan you linked to is more thorough than what the majority of SMBs will be writing. YC is another league of finance. Most SMBs I know are not very sophisticated
- nouveaux 5y agoThat's interesting. Do you mind sharing an example of what you worked with?
- jcrben 5y agoI don't think they're public - it was just a narrative business plan (under a section titled business plan) required when an insurance company submitted an application for a license to sell insurance in the state of Alaska. Each state has similar requirements (NAIC model law). It also included a background check on the management IIRC Can you link to an example SMB business plan? I once tried to help a neighborhood grocer with financing and I can assure you they weren't writing a sophisticated business plan.
