In Part I of your business plan, you identified an overview of your business concept, provided the mission statement and vision of the company leadership, and presented the products or services that your company will produce to satisfy the specific needs and wants of your target audience.

The use of a SWOT analysis should be included to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats relating to your business model, your primary competition, and the industry you plan to enter. From this data you will identify your strategic position statement that identifies your competitive advantages and value proposition for your target audience.  Next, you will share your marketing strategy and tactics that you will incorporate to create awareness of your new companys offerings, and identify your key marketing message and messaging distribution strategy for reaching your target audience.
