In this short, Stacy Chin explains the seventh and final section of a startup business plan, which focuses on revenue streams. She advises breaking the section into two or three subsections: a revenue strategy overview, an associated cost section, and a 3‑to‑5‑year financial projection. The projection should estimate revenue after completing Phase 2 development and launching the product or service. The guidance emphasizes clearly articulating how the startup will generate revenue, the costs tied to that revenue, and realistic multi‑year financial forecasts.

And the 7th and final section is all about the revenue streams. In this section, you want to hash out a plan as to how you plan to generate revenue for your startup. And I like to break this section down into 2 or 3 subsections: a revenue strategy overview, an associated cost section, and a 3 to 5 year financial projection. And finally, I like to include a 3 to 5 year financial projection of how much revenue you anticipate generating after completing the Phase 2 efforts and then launching the product or service to the market.
