I would search for business plans in your industry for example if it was landscaping. Search google for "Landscaping Business Plans" you will find that there is quite of bit of free examples of business plans that you can quickly adapt to your needs.

Re: help with business pla?
The best format is very simple answer these three questions:

1. Where are we today? Current State
2. Where do we want to go? Future State
3. How are we going to get there? Gap

I hope this helps.

If you haven't referenced, the US Small Business Administration at www.sba.gov is great with respect to business templates per industry. I have utilized a number of these templates for my own company.
