How to Start a New Lunar Business Plan
You can add a plan.
Setting Up a new plan
Start in the Business Plans List and think of a name for the idea; something short, one or two words that are easy to guess and easy to remember. This will serve as the idea’s reference name. Enter Edit and add the Reference Name into the Business Plans List as a link with a short description. You may put it wherever you think it fits. After you finish, save the page and the reference name should appear in red.
Alternatively, you can use one of the ideas already provided on this list, already shown in red.
Click on the red entry to take you to the new entry edit form. Follow these guidelines to write the business plan for your idea using whatever editor you like. You may choose to cut and paste this form into your editor as a starting place. This outline is only a suggestion; feel free to modify it to suit your business practices.

Near the top enter the full title of your idea. This is usually two lines with a descriptive title for the first line and the second line: “Near-Term Business Plan Summary” or a reference to another scenario.
