Our business planning specialists offer a free business plan review service which provides you with the benefit their expertise at no initial cost.
Your guide to successful business planning
We have outlined the information that any good business plan should include in our ‘write a business plan’ section, and we would recommend that you use this as a guide for preparing your own business plan. The guide can also be downloaded for ease of reference.
Free business plan review
Once submitted, our business planning experts will review your business plan and provide feedback direct to you. To take advantage of our free business plan review service you will need to register with us and upload a copy of your business plan with any supporting documents. We will let you have our comments/ feedback within three working days of submission.
Bringing entrepreneurs and investors together
As one of the UK's leading accounting networks, our business planning experts have good relationships with investors and are able to offer entrepreneurs advice on different funding options to facilitate the development of a business opportunity.
Once your business plan is complete we will be happy to assist you through the next stages in seeking finance - whether that is by introducing potential investors, advising on tax, valuation, structural issues or simply acting as a sounding board for you during the process.
Beyond the initial feedback, we will expect to cover our costs and will therefore charge a fee for our continued involvement, although we are flexible about how much and when this needs to be paid - after all, we recognise a good opportunity when we see one.
Our investor opportunities database
Our business planning department maintains a database of investors seeking quality, relevant business opportunities. If you would like to be sent information on opportunities that meet with your specific criteria, and which have been quality checked by us, register with our online investor opportunities database.
