My Business Plan
K250 ZMW
Turn your business idea into a practical plan you can test, fund and execute.
My Business Plan is a practical business-planning toolkit for Zambian entrepreneurs and SMEs who need more than a blank template. It helps you turn your business thinking into a structured plan, test the numbers, identify gaps and prepare for real-world decisions.
What you'll be able to do
- Define your business, customer and value proposition clearly
- Research and validate your market before relying on assumptions
- Build realistic sales, cost, cash-flow and break-even numbers
- Compare Base, Downside and Upside scenarios in the financial model
- Assess business viability and scalability
- Identify gaps and turn them into practical actions
- Prepare for funding conversations with stronger business information
- Work through key Zambian business, compliance and financing considerations
- Build a focused 90-day action plan
What's inside
A complete digital toolkit designed to take you from thinking to planning to action:
- Guided Word workbook for building your business plan step by step
- Excel financial model with formula-driven calculations
- Sales, costs, cash flow and break-even tools
- Base, Downside and Upside scenario planning
- Business viability and scalability scorecard
- Customer validation and market research tools
- Gap-to-action and 90-day planning tools
- Zambia-specific business, compliance and financing guidance
- Worked examples covering retail, agribusiness, professional services and manufacturing/value addition
- REDTEAM questions to challenge weak assumptions before they become expensive mistakes
How it works
Answer the questions → build the numbers → test the business → fix the gaps → write the plan.
You are not just filling in a template. You are using the workbook and financial model together to make your business assumptions visible and easier to challenge.
Who it's for
Built for Zambian founders, entrepreneurs, professionals, graduates and small-business owners who are starting, formalising, growing or preparing a business for financing.
Why it's different
This is more than a generic business-plan template. It combines planning, financial modelling, customer validation, risk questioning and Zambia-specific guidance in one toolkit.
