Business planning is about results. You need to make the contents of your plan match your purpose. Don’t accept a standard outline just because it’s there.
A business plan is any plan that works for a business to look ahead, allocate resources, focus on key points, and prepare for problems and opportunities.
Unfortunately, many people think of business plans only for starting a new business or applying for business loans. But they are also vital for running a business, whether or not the business needs new loans or new investments. Businesses need plans to optimize growth and development according to priorities.

Re: What Is a Business Plan?
Business planning is a process that involves the creation of a mission or goal for a company, as well as defining the strategies that will be used to meet those goals or mission. The process of business planning can be very broad, encompassing each aspect of the operation, or be focused on particular functions within the overall corporate structure. Often, business planning involves the utilization of resources within the company as well as engaging the services of consultants to assist in designing and implementing the plan.
