It’s best to write this last after you’ve prepared the rest of your plan because this is simply a summary of the whole plan. It should ideally be one page, but two pages are equally acceptable.

We tend to use a MOST analysis structure to this section.
This area covers:
(M) – Mission statement – The purpose of your business
(O) – Objectives – What you plan to achieve over the next few years
(S) – Strategy – How you will achieve your goals
(T) – Tactics – How you will implement your strategy
