The Business Goal may already exist in a project proposal or charge document. If not, borrow from existing resources (e.g. work plans, project charters, etc.), or draft based on information from your intake form and audience analysis.Make these actionable and measurable. Try to be as specific as possible.

Consider how you want to evaluate your plan (e.g. # of communications delivered vs. impact of communications delivered).
Describe how you will achieve your communication objectives. These broader statements often describe how you will use best practices to reach your objectives. What are the tangible pieces you will have when you complete this project? Some examples include reports, surveys, websites, demonstrations, articles, etc.

Use this list of tactics to draft a detailed communications plan for each deliverable (which will include all the tasks deadlines, roles, and responsibilities necessary to create the deliverable).
