Looking for great sample business plans for programmers? When not tied to the corporate payroll, programmers tend to work in freelance positions, servicing several clients at once with basic web development needs or database assistance, either off-site or on location with a client. A programmer who wants to start his own business offer these sorts of services will need a business plan that describes his/her technical capabilities and accurately forecasts the potential market for selling these services to businesses and individuals either in the target area or to companies worldwide via the Internet. A business plan for a programmer should show:
• The core services available
• The history (work, experience, education etc.) of the main owner(s)
• The market opportunity regionally or in this industry
• The type of contracts successfully fulfilled to date
• The intended use of investment proceeds or bank loan
• The staffing support roles needed as the company grows, if any
The business plan will need to include a marketing plan that shows the sort of initiatives that can help a programmer get new clients. Have you developed a CRM for someone because you were able to make a banner ad that conveyed your expertise with this sort of database? Have you built out a website for a client because they saw your ad in a local business magazine? Describe the methods that have worked to date and the sort of campaigns you might explore in the future. Couple this with a 3-5 year pro forma that models out your revenues and expenses – showing, ultimately, an appealing but attainable net profit and net profit percentage – and you'll have a salable plan.
