But to solve the problem you need to understand it, and know your goals what you want to achieve. Realizing where your business right now is a very big step on the way to write good business-plan.
The way is relative; it depends on your goals. So the first step to write good plan is to realize your goals. The next step is to understand what prevents to achieve them. For example, you can say something like this:
1) "We have a good idea, but we not sure we can do it".
2) "We don't have enough money, we can't find the investor".
3) "We have some personal problems".
There are lots of ways that can bring your success, some of them is very short but hard, the other way is easy but it very long. You can find as much way as your could, ask your friends, partners.
Then you need to rank them. Your business situations can be described by things that your need in the way that you have chosen. And your mini-goal is what you need to achieve.
