Remember too, that statistics show the greatest causes of business failure to be poor management and lack of planning. Without a plan by which to operate. No one can manage and without a direction in which to aim its efforts. No business can attain any real success.

TITLE PAGE:

On the very first page. Which is the title page. Put down the name of your business 123 ACTION with your business address underneath. Now grab a pen and piece of paper and write this all in capital letters:

PRINCIPAL OWNER followed by your name if you’re the principal owner.

On your finished report, you would want to center this information on the page, with the words “principal owner” off-set to the left about five spaces.
Examples: 123 ACTION
1234 SW 5th Ave.
Anywhere, USA 00000

PRINCIPAL OWNER: Your Name

That’s all you’ll have on this page except the page number  -1-

Following your title page is the page for your statement purpose. This should be a simple statement of your primary business function such as. We are a service business engaged in the business of selling business success manuals and other information by mail.

The title of the page should be in all capital letters across the top of the page, centered on your final draft skip a few lines and write the statement of purpose. This should be direct, clear and short never more than two sentences in length.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:

Then you should skip a few lines, and from the left hand margin of the paper, write out a sub-heading in all capital letters, such as: EXPLANATION OF PURPOSE.

From, and within this sub-heading you can briefly explain your statement of purpose, such as: Our surveys have found most entrepreneurs to be “sadly” lacking in basic information that will enable them to achieve success.

This market is estimated at more than a 100 million persons, with at least half of these people actively “searching” for sources. That provide the kind of information they want and need.

With our business advertising and publishing experience. It is our goal to capture at least half of this market of information seekers, with our publication.

Our market research indicates we can achieve this goal and realize a profit of $1,500,000 per year within the next 5 years…

The above example is generally the way you should write your “explanation of purpose,” and in subtle definition, why you need an explanation. Point to remember: Keep it short. Very few business purpose explanations justify more than a half page long.
