Professional Business Plan Support

Perhaps you have been asked to develop a business plan by your banker or other potential investor in order to secure funding for either your existing or startup business venture. At first, this may seem like a fairly routine task, until you begin to explore the components required of an acceptable business plan.

If you have tried on your own to create a business plan and have hit the proverbial "Brick Wall" because of the daunting task and effort involved, or if you simply want to leave the heavy lifting to a professional, then you have come to the right place.

Business Planning Made Simple

At RG Stephens & Associates we have the resources and the experience to help you develop a professional business plan, one that is complete, readable, flattering to you and your dream, and most of all, acceptable to your investor.

What Can I Expect to Pay?

This is not an easy question and can vary depending on many factors. Basically, however, there are three choices available to you:

1. Do it Yourself with Professional Review
The simplest and least expensive way to produce a business plan is to do it yourself utilizing one of the many software packages available. We recommend Business Plan Pro or Business Plan Pro Premier from Palo Alto Software. The choice would depend on the complexity of your business.

These products are excellent and will provide you with the tools to create a great business plan. You may still want to have a professional review your completed work and make recommendations as a fine tuning method, and to insure that you are not missing any vital pieces. Our Advisors will be glad to review and recommend any changes or improvements at a reduced rate of $125 for the 1st hour and $75 for each additional hour needed. Most Reviews can be completed within 1 hour.

2. Professional Assistance
If you have ever attempted to develop a Business Plan before you may have discovered that it can have pieces that are very difficult to provide, such as the Market Research, or competitive analysis. With our Professional Assistance program you can purchase the software and complete as much of the process as possible and leave the hard part to us. We will provide you with 5 hours of Professional assistance to supplement your efforts and help refine the entire Business Plan for you. This supplemental assistance is $375 for the initial 5 hours and $75 per hour if more time is required.

3. The Effortless Business Plan
For those who are not comfortable with developing Business Plans, or just don't want to spend the time and energy necessary, we can offer a turn key solution. Utilizing the resources we have available to us, we will develop your Business Plan for you. Your involvement will be to answer a few interview questions regarding your business, things that only you know, such as business model, pricing, location, startup efforts, etc. From those interviews, will complete the plan and provide periodic review sessions with you to insure that we have covered all of the bases. This turnkey Business Plan will cost you only $875*.
