Planning Guide Template: Fill & Download for Free

It was freshman year, our first semester Honors English final.This girl, who had a 99% average in the class, and needed a 50% to keep her A, created a study guide template on Google Docs. It was large and extensive, and covered the entire semester. A few of her friends knew about it, and then she gave it to the rest of her class. She had the rough skeleton, but everyone in the class pretty much contributed. We studied hard, and that study guide ensured our good grades.However, the hour after the final, I get a text from some of my friends saying that they can’t access the study guide. There’s a 15 minute break between the finals, and this was the first day of them, so my friends wanted to look at it so that they could prepare themselves.I checked the doc page, and saw that the study guide was gone. Minutes after our English class had finished the final, I went up to her. Everyone had finished by this time. Let’s call her “Marie.”“Marie, where’s the study guide? I went to look at it just now, and I wonder why it’s not working.”“Oh, I took it down.”“You took… What? Why?”“I don’t want my curve to be compromised. Other people don’t deserve to see it.”“But you need like a 50% for an A. The curve doesn’t mean shit for you.”“True, but it brings me closer to being the best in the class.”I saw in her eyes that she meant every last thing she said. I was disgusted. And to think I liked this girl for a short time…Edit: By ‘large and extensive’, I meant a skeleton. Many people had ideas of making a study guide, but she was the first one to make it and press the share button. The amount of work she did did not exceed the amount of work done by any other member of the class, all who contributed on the study guide, yet she still had ownership of the document because it was linked to her Google account. She initially planned to do it with friends, but these friends realized that it would be completed quicker with more people contributing it, so it was shared with the class. Thus, she discarded the hard work of everyone in the class for personal interests. Thank you for highlighting this misconception, Anish Bhalchandra.

The general business plan (Template) or structure is same for both existing or new ideas. But If your idea is innovative and new to the existing market then there is a section in the business plan where you can mention it. Even while doing the SWOT analysis for your business plan, you will have to mention the opportunities of it being a new idea along with the threats. I would suggest :Business Plan GuideThis is the best thing to read :)Cheers.Allen
