[Creating a Fundable Profile](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#creating-a-fundable-profile) # What goes in my Business Plan Profile? Your Business Plan Profile is a private, protected portion of your profile that you control access to. This section is set to private by default, and only investors you grant access to will be able to view it. It typically includes the following components: --- #### 1. Executive Summary Your Executive Summary is a high-level overview of your business, including: - **What your business does** - **How your product works** - **Your strategic plan for growth** The goal is to engage potential investors by providing enough information to spark interest, but not to be overly detailed. Think of it as the hook that makes investors want to learn more. *C*rafting an executive summary is as good as making an elevator pitch. Concisely convey your business's value proposition to potential investors.

Financials Investors want to see clear financial information, including: - **Use of funds** - **Financial projections** While not mandatory, providing this information as a downloadable file before launching your fundraise is highly recommended. Serious investors will request this information before making a commitment, so having it readily available is critical.

The Ask After presenting your product idea, explain: - **How much capital you are raising** - **What the funds will be used for** Be clear about how the funds will help achieve specific milestones. Investors need to see a logical connection between their support and your business’s growth. --- #### 4. Additional Documents Once your fundraise closes, you’ll need to provide specific documents, such as: - **Subscription Agreements** – Detailing the terms of the investment for all committed investors. It's helpful to have these documents prepared in draft form before your fundraise closes, but they can also be created after verbal commitments are made. --- Your Business Plan Profile is a crucial part of your fundraising journey. Ensuring it's clear, comprehensive, and well-prepared will make it easier for investors to understand and engage with your business. - [Startups.com Customer Support](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/startups-com-customer-support?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Account Subscription](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/startups-com-customer-support?hsLang=en#account-subscription) - [Membership Features](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/startups-com-customer-support?hsLang=en#membership-features) - [Investor Matching](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/startups-com-customer-support?hsLang=en#investor-matching) - [Perks and Benefits](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/startups-com-customer-support?hsLang=en#perks-and-benefits) - [Startups.com Site Content Help](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/startups-com-site-content-help?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/startups-com-site-content-help?hsLang=en#general) - [Fundable](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#general) - [Getting Started on Fundable](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#getting-started-on-fundable) - [Equity Campaigns](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#equity-campaigns) - [Creating a Fundable Profile](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#creating-a-fundable-profile) - [Investors](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#investors) - [Legal](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#legal) - [Payments & Fees](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/fundable?hsLang=en#payments-fees) - [Clarity.fm](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#general) - [Calls](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#calls) - [Member FAQs](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#member-faqs) - [Expert FAQs](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#expert-faqs) - [Privacy & Security](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#privacy-security) - [Payments & Fees](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#payments-fees) - [Getting Started on Clarity](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#getting-started-on-clarity) - [Your Clarity Account](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#your-clarity-account) - [Frequently Asked Questions](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/clarity-fm?hsLang=en#frequently-asked-questions) - [Bizplan](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/bizplan?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Customizing Plan](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/bizplan?hsLang=en#customizing-plan) - [Getting Started](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/bizplan?hsLang=en#getting-started) - [Managing Account](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/bizplan?hsLang=en#managing-account) - [Finance](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/bizplan?hsLang=en#finance) - [Support](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/bizplan?hsLang=en#support) - [Companies](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/bizplan?hsLang=en#companies) - [Publishing](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/bizplan?hsLang=en#publishing) - [Launchrock](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/launchrock?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Custom URLs / DNS Settings / Using Your Domain](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/launchrock?hsLang=en#custom-urls-dns-settings-using-your-domain) - [General Questions](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/launchrock?hsLang=en#general-questions) - [Getting Started on Launchrock](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/launchrock?hsLang=en#getting-started-on-launchrock) - [Video Tutorials](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/launchrock?hsLang=en#video-tutorials) - [Your Launchrock Account](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/launchrock?hsLang=en#your-launchrock-account) - [Payments & Fees](https://help.startups.com/knowledge/launchrock?hsLang=en#payments-fees) - [Blog](https://help.startups.com/blog) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://help.startups.com/hs-fs/hubfs/startupscom-logo-420.png?width=84&height=24&name=startupscom-logo-420.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://startups.com) Copyright © 2026, Startups.com
