Business plan tool
We're updating the business plan builder tool on Monday 9 December, between 7 am and 8 am (AEDT). During this time, you may experience interruptions when building your business plan. See our service availability page for more information and support.
During this time, you may experience interruptions when using the tool and may lose the information you have entered. If that happens, you will need to start again. If you are redirected to an error page, select 'continue' to keep working on your plan.
For the best experience, we recommend that you use the tool at a later time.

Before you start
You may want to forecast your revenue and expenses for the next year to save time.
Seeking finance?
Some lenders ask for more detail, so it's better to use our detailed business plan template.
