Hi Simone,

We write business plans for all sorts of visitor attractions including  
museums.  The first question you must ask is why are you writing the  
plan.  This will provide the framework of the plan.  For example, if  
you want to go for any type of bank financing, then the plan will be  
different.  If you are going after a major grant, the plan format may  
be different.
Also, you may only need to write more of a "summary plan" rather than  
a "comprehensive plan" depending again on the purpose for writing the  
business plan.  There is also an "Operational Business Plan" which is  
more of an internal document to provide the museum with focus and  
aligning efforts of museum staff towards your mission.
Feel free to email or call me with any questions.  I'd be happy to help.
Best wishes,
Sylvia
