SME Business Plan / Small Business Plan
Your small or medium business has been running for a year or more and you now need to develop a Business Plan for Growth. On a practical level you have a good idea how this will be achieved and you probably have some figures within the business to support this. You may be funding a Small Business Plan internally, via bank loan or developing a Medium Business Plan to secure investment from private investors but you probably don't have time to develop your expansion plan yourself, or may not have all the expertise necessary in-house. Alternatively, you may be applying for an Entrepreneur Visa and need a supporting business plan. Whatever your goals you need help developing a professional SME business plan that will stand up to scrutiny and provide a genuine growth plan for your business.

Fees & Time-scale
Fees, process and time-scale will depend on a number of key factors:
- How much data you have available on the existing SME
- How much work you have done on developing your options for growth and the operational, revenue and cost implications of those options
- How much research is required
- How much you are looking to raise in funding
We can give you a firm quotation and written proposal of work once we have had an initial FREE telephone consultation with you - simply call us on 0845 026 0198 or complete the Contact Form on this page. However, as a rough guide, a growth plan will take 2-3 weeks to produce and typically cost £1,850 - £2,850.
Process
We will review your company performance to date, develop a detailed financial forecast for your chosen growth strategy and develop a fully integrated SME Business Plan. Typically this is approached in three broad stages:
- Review, Analysis and Research
- Develop Financial Assumptions & Financial Forecast
- Writing the Business Plan & Appendices
What will be in my SME Business Plan?
The content of your plan will depend on the level of detail required. However, each plan will typically comprise a minimum of:
• A 40 page business plan commentary including a 2-page Executive Summary (See example of content outlined below)
• A 3 detailed year month by month Profit and Loss, Cash-Flow and Balance sheet + additional 2 year summary
• A set of appendices with detail supporting the business plan
Many of Our Clients are primarily developing a business plan to securing funding, but in the process are often seeking to explore potential growth paths, different value propositions, alternative commercial strategies, and forecast the potential outcomes. So, as well as its core Business Plan Services TBPT provides a range of Other Business Plan Services including research & analysis, financial modelling, feasibility analysis, and pitch-deck & investor prospectus development, as well as introductions potential sources of funding.
