How to use the templates

Start with the budget template, then open the relevant calculator and copy your edited costs into the sheet. Keep evidence for each number: supplier quote, insurance estimate, council fee, software price or your own tested job timing.

The business plan template is intentionally short. A useful small business plan should explain who buys, why they buy, what it costs to serve them and how many sales are needed before the business pays the owner properly.
