Our Business Plan Consulting Methodology

Our business plan consulting team has developed hundreds of custom business plans for clients in all types of industries. During this time, we have developed methodologies to ensure our clients receive high-quality, fully customized business plans every time.

Our methodology includes five phases which are designed to maximize quality and client satisfaction.

  1. Management Interviews: In this first phase, we collect and document your “verbal” growth plan, including your vision, key accomplishments to date, challenges and opportunities, objectives and goals, and growth strategies. In this phase we also identify and refine key research questions, and work to define and communicate an effective “story” for the business plan. Your “story” is what’s going to appeal to investors and lenders.
  2. Strategic Market Research: In this phase, we size the relevant market place, analyze competitors, profile existing and prospective customer groups, and assess the business opportunity. We also conduct “benchmarking research” — this involves identifying other companies that have succeeded and/or failed with similar businesses and/or initiatives.
  3. Draft Plan: Next, we provide a draft of your business plan. This will include the full business plan including the following sections:
    1. Executive Summary
    2. Company Analysis
    3. Customer and Market Analysis
    4. Industry and Competitive Analysis
    5. Marketing, Operations, and Development Plans
    6. Management Plan
    7. Financial Plan

     

  4. Review and Revise: In this phase, we review the draft plan with you and discuss the focus, wording, and flow of the document. We incorporate any necessary revisions and refinements, and prepare the revised plan.
  5. Package and Finalize: The final stage involves creating a clean, professional document, with graphical enhancements, that is copy-edited, formatted, and ready to be presented to stakeholders and investors.

PRICE: Standard business plan starting at $350 USD
