Can you say more about what you want this "tax plan" to help you do for you?
Your question is very general and it is difficult to point you in the right direction without knowing more about your business (type of entity, industry, #employees, etc.) and your financial goals.
You will find some general financial guides on tax strategies for business owners on my website: http://www.lahcpas.com/cat-taxbusiness.php
There are many books on the subject of business taxes that may include a chapter on tax planning. The JK Lasser series is usually comprehensive. Take a look at JK Lasser's Small Business Taxes 2010: Complete Guide to a Better Bottom Line. You will find Lasser's book on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
I agree with existing posts. What do you have in mind when you describe tax plan?
Ok. He hasn't come back to answer our questions, so I'll leave this reasource for business planning resources.

Business Tax Planning falls into two separate categories:
Planning to avoid over-paying taxes, and
Planning for all exigencies that can affect your future in the future.
For the first of these any competent bookkeeper can suffice.
For the second I recommend either making sure your bookkeeper can consult with you not only on ways to save money, but on ways to increase revenues.
Generally that second category falls not to bookkeepers, but to accountants, and not all accountants are set up for proactive counselling.
So... What is it you really need?
