Using a direct, professional writing style will ensure that your plan is clear, concise, and easy to understand. This is important for communicating your ideas effectively to potential investors or stakeholders. Using different color fonts or paper, including formal resumes for all key players in your management team, and setting a firm date for a potential answer are not general guidelines for writing successful marketing and business plans. And while financial projections and appendixes should be included, there is no specific requirement for the size of the plan.
