Business Plan Writing and Editing:
Increase your chances of success!
- Your plan will be targeted to meet the unique needs of your target audience which increases your chances of receiving funding. Or, if you are using the plan as an internal planning tool, you'll have a detailed road map to guide you. (Beware of boiler plate plans! A poorly written plan will do more harm than good and is a waste of your time and money)
- You'll have a better understanding of your market and competitors. I'll provide you with outstanding in-depth research to give you a leg-up over your competitors.
- A plan that's easy to share. I'll make it very easy for you to get your plan into the right hands by giving you the choice of all the popular file formats: PDF, HTML, DOC, and PPT.
- Plus, you'll have access to my database of over 1,200 venture capitalists!
- And, I'll include 90-days of free plan revisions.
My fees are flexible and are set with the solo business person in mind. After an initial conversation I will give you a detailed proposal with my estimate for your project and a project schedule. Typical fees for writing or editing a business plan range between $1,000 and $1,500. The final pricing is largely dependent on how much research and background has already been completed.
While there is no way that I can guarantee the success of your business, I do guarantee your satisfaction with my services.
