Organisational Planning

"A sound Business Plan provides a clear picture of where the business is now, where it is going and how its owners or managers intend to get there".

Small Business Guide - The Business Plan, Business Tasmania

The CBF encourages all community broadcasters to develop long term planning processes.  A business plan or organisational plan is one document that assists with longer term planning.

Online resources that may assist you in developing or revising a Business Plan:

• Northern Territory Business Channel - Business planning information
• Small Business Counselling Service  - Business Planning Guide
• Australian Business Limited  - Business planning information
• Business Plan Centre  - Sample business plans  
• Microsoft Word Template Gallery  - Search for business plan templates

Member stations of the Community Broadcasting Association of Australia (CBAA) can access business planning resources including a template business plan from the membership services section of CBAA website or contact the CBAA on PH: (02) 9310 2999 or via email: office@cbaa.org.au.
