   I've also written business plans following the model from the Harvard Business School . The book is available at most large bookstores (and amazon.com) and libraries.
3. I have no sample, but a business plan is not that hard to write.
   
   basically it comprises the following parts.
   
   1. Competitors
   2. Way you are going to make money
   3. Backgrounds on who is going to run your company.
   4. how you are going to stay competitive
   5. What you are setting out to do and your mission statement.
   6. Financing---what you have and what you need.
   
   In all honesty, you might not need a business plan. The only people who truly need a business plan are the ones who need financing from a bank or Venture Capitalists or Private Money.
   If all you are doing is running the business off what you have or can borrow from friends, then you really dont need one.

   It is very difficult to find samples because every plan is different in nature. And specifics are extremely broad.
   
   Hope this helps.
