Business Plan's FAQ
Can you guarantee that our business plan will raise capital?
Of course not. Nobody can make that guarantee (and if somebody ever makes that guarantee, it’s a good idea to run away quickly). A good plan is essential, but a plan alone will not get funded. Although we will do our best to help you prepare, we have no control over how well you present yourselves to investors, or how well you answer their questions. We can coach and we can mentor, but at the end of the day, it’s your business and you must close the deal.
How does the process work?
Every situation is unique. However, some common steps include the following:
- Initial discussion to understand your basic needs.
- Review your existing materials (draft business plans, financials, market research, competitor research, etc.)
- Follow-up discussion to clarify details and agree upon the scope and fees for the project.
- Several in-depth discussions to better understand the details, develop strategies, and agree on all major elements of the business plan and financial model.
- Conduct additional research, as needed.
- Draft an Investor Presentation and review it with you to ensure that all parties agree on the high-level vision.
- Draft the Executive Summary and review it with you to ensure that we all agree on the next level of detail.
- Prepare a draft outline of the business plan for your review.
- Begin filling in the details on the draft. Obtain and incorporate your feedback.
- Incorporate your revenue and expense models into the financial model and explain how it works so that you can take “ownership” of the financials.
- Finalize all deliverables.
- Coach you on the best way to deliver the investor presentation and on how to address questions.
- Provide ongoing support, including making minor updates to the deliverables at no additional charge.
How long does it take?
For a typical engagement, consisting of a business plan, financial forecast, and marketing plan, the typical time to completion is 6-8 weeks. The actual time can be influenced by the quality of your existing materials, the level of your participation, the complexity of your market and business model, and our current workload. Some very simple projects can be completed in just a few days, and we have had other projects extend well over a year (of course these engagements involved much more than just business planning).

More importantly, Ms. Morrison listened to our needs to ensure we could utilize the information she was giving us. Thank you for helping us create our first Giving Tuesday Plan”.

Gayle and I have only met via zoom meetings, but when I explained to her what I wanted to do and needed a plan and assistance to get it done for my business. Gayle put it all together, quickly and sent me the template for moving my business forward for growth, visibility, website design, marketing, just to name a few. I am looking forward to continue working with her and her team.
