First of all hello everyone, and thank you MJ for changing my life Prior to your book I always thought entrepreneurship was for rich people and/or geniuses but now I realize it's in everyone's grasp :)

I decided to participate in a social enterprise competition run by a large company's consultancy department and I have to send in a business plan followed by a presentation for finalists.

Here's a few things I would love help on :

-I think I have a decent grasp on how to write the business plan and presentation slides, but this is my first time doing it. Any general tips I should be aware of ?

-Very important question for me, how do I present well ? One thing I need to work on for example is speaking more clearly. (no filler words such as "like") I'd appreciate any articles/youtube videos that you found useful.

-(This is a more specific question) On the social enterprise/giving back side, I was thinking of donating a percentage of the sales to a related charitable/non-profit organization, as my business idea is purely online so I can't integrate local communities into it. Is this a good idea ? Any other ideas I haven't considered ?

To anyone who's thinking of helping me out on one or several of these questions, thank you so much :)
