10 Places to Find Business Plan Writers for Hire

• Sam Swanson
• August 30, 2021

If you need to hire a business plan writer, you’re in the right place. In this guide, we have investigated and reviewed the 10 best places online to find and hire a business plan writer.

Why hire a business plan writer?

A business plan helps you write down and publish a road map for where your business is going and how it is going to get there. To make your business plan stand out and get read it needs to be written in a professional yet engaging way.

One of the best ways to ensure you have a great business plan is to hire an experienced business plan writer. But the hardest part is working out where to find one. That’s why we created this guide.

Here are the ten best places to hire a business plan writer.

1. Writing Studio

Writing Studio is a content writing company that helps companies to produce detailed and engaging business plans. Our expert writers have experience writing business plans across multiple industries and will ensure you receive a high-quality business plan that gets read, and more importantly, gets results.

Writing Studio offers competitive content writing prices  within the industry. If you require a business plan to be written we can provide you with a detailed custom quote after a free, no-obligation consultation.  

When you work with Writing Studio you’ll work with a dedicated client manager who will oversee your business plan writing project and ensure you’re 100% satisfied with the end product.

Upwork is one of the largest platforms online to find a writer to outsource your business plan writing to. You can either post a project and freelancers will send you proposals to write your business plan or you can search for writers who specialize in writing business plans and hire the best one for your specific job.

Upwork has thousands of writers on their platform so you’re likely to find a writer who has experience writing about your industry and has a portfolio of past business plans they have written. Each freelancer on the platform also has a star rating which makes sorting through the applicants much easier. 

The major downside of Upwork is that you’ll have to manage the project yourself and you might have to hire an editor to double-check the freelancer’s work. Writers on Upwork charge between US$15 per hour to US$80 per hour depending on how experienced they are.

3. MasterPlans

MasterPlans.com is a business plan writing service with more than 18-years of experience writing plans for over 18,000 clients.

The company can help you with every aspect of your business plan and tailor it for the audience it is intended for. For example, if it is for a bank, they will tailor it for a lending manager to read.

Using their service is simple, you just need to go to their website and request one of their expert team members to contact you. They will then give you a free consultation so you can explain your specific needs and they can explain how their service works and give you a quote customized to your needs.

4. Wise Business Plans

WiseBusinessPlans offers more than just a simple business writing service. They will also work with you to help create financial modeling and other business consultancy services. According to the company they hire writers with MBA’s and decades of experience writing business plans.

To get a free consultation with one of their reps you can give them a call or book one online. Of all the business plan writing services and places to find writers on our list this company is likely to be one of the more expensive, but the upside of working with a dedicated business plan writing service like WiseBusinessPlans is that you’ll be able to work with some very experienced business plan writers.

5. LinkedIn

LinkedIn is a professional social network used by hundreds of millions of people worldwide – including many professional writers with experience writing business plans.

To find a business plan writer on LinkedIn you can post a job ad for free. Applicants with relevant experience can then apply for the job. Once you get a good pool of applicants you can create a shortlist and then conduct interviews. After a round of interviews, you can then select the best candidate and offer them the job.

The main benefit of LinkedIn is that you can access millions of potential candidates and it’s free. The downside of using LinkedIn to find a business plan writer is that you’ll have to vet the candidates and then manage the project yourself with the writer you hire.

Fiverr is another large online freelancer marketplace where you can find great business plan writers. Much like Upwork, you can search for writers with specific experience such as writing business plans, and then contact your favorites or place a job advert and request writers send you a proposal. You can then hire the best writer, receive the completed project through the platform, and then make the required payment.

When hiring a business plan writer, you can expect to pay anywhere from $5 to $200 per hour. To make it easy for both parties you might be better off setting a project price that includes revisions so that both you and the freelancer will know upfront how much it will cost.

7. Pro-Business Plans

Pro-Business Plans is a specialist business plan writing company that has operated since 1999.

They can help you write multiple different types of business plans such as Start-up business plans, business plans for immigration services, business plans for small business loans, and many more.

Using their service is very easy. You simply go to their website and request a consultation. One of their sales reps will then contact you to explain how their service works. They will then provide you with a detailed and customized quote and if you’re happy with that they will go ahead and write your business plan.

8. LivePlan

Another good option when looking for a business plan writer is Liveplan.com . The company provides both a software platform to write your own plan or you can hire a writer through the platform to do it for you.

According to their website, they have writers on their platform who can write business plans for numerous different industries.

To use their service, you go to their website and then enter the details of your business plan you need to be written, and they will then contact you and match you with one of their writers. When you work with LivePlan you’re looking at paying between $2000 and $3000 for a business plan to be written.

Indeed.com is one of the world’s largest online job websites. To use their service you sign up on their website and can then post a job advert with all of the details of your business plan writing project. Once posted, writers with experience writing business plans will then send you an application for the job. You can then evaluate all of the applicants and select the one most suited to your needs.

Overall, Indeed.com will put you in touch with a large number of applicants but the major downside is you’ll have to spend the time to post the job, interview the applicants, and then manage them during the writing process.

10. Go Business Plans

Go Business Plans are a specialty business plan writing company based in California, USA.

They work with clients to create customized business plans for a range of different industries, including, the energy, real estate, education, e-commerce, and healthcare industries.

To use their service, you simply go to their website and fill out a form with your details, and they will then contact you and give you a custom quote.

The Bottom Line

There are many great places online to find a business plan writer. Your main consideration when choosing which service is how much you’re prepared to pay. If budget isn’t an issue, you are much better off going with a professional writing service and if budget is an issue, you’re better off using a freelance or job listing platform.

How to Find a Business Plan Writer for Hire

Written by Dave Lavinsky

If you’re thinking of hiring a business plan writer , congratulations! You’ve made a smart decision. A business plan is essential for any startup and can be critical for established businesses as well. But many entrepreneurs do not have the time or skills to write one themselves. That’s where a business plan writer comes in.

In this article, we will explore how to find someone to write your business plan and why it’s worth taking the time to do so.

Before You Hire

There are a few things to consider when looking for a business plan writer. The first is whether or not you need one. If you have a clear idea of your business and what you hope to achieve, you may be able to write a basic plan yourself. However, if you’re not sure where to start or what to include, it’s worth hiring someone to help you.

Another thing to consider is your budget. While some business plan writers can be expensive, there are also many affordable options available. You’ll need to decide how much you’re willing to spend on this service before you start looking for providers.

If you need a business plan to secure funding, you may also want to consider working with a business plan consultant. These professionals can help you create a plan that is tailored specifically to your needs and meets the requirements of potential investors.

Once you’ve decided that you need to hire a writer, the next step is finding an experienced writer that fits your budget.

Qualities of a Great Business Planning Consultant or Writer

Not all business plan writers are created equal. Here are some qualities to look for during your search for a professional business plan writer:

• Experience and credentials . Look for a writer with experience in your industry or sector. They should also have excellent business planning credentials, the ability to create realistic financial projections and be able to provide samples of their work.
• Good communication skills . The best business plan writers are good communicators who can understand your needs and work with you to create a solid business plan that meets your specific requirements.
• Excellent writing skills . The writer should be able to write clear, concise, and well-organized business plans that are easy to understand.

Expert Business Plan Writers and Consultants

Who writes my business plan.

You will be paired with one dedicated individual from our small team of highly trained and experienced business planning professionals. Each one is a uniquely qualified business planning expert who can translate your ideas into a business plan that will appeal to your audience.

Is my business plan writer an expert in my industry?

Our business plan writers are experts specifically in business plan writing. We've worked with every industry imaginable so the likelihood that they have some familiarity with your industry is high, but if you are looking for a business consultant this may not be a good fit.

What kind of background will my business plan writer have? Are they outsourced from other countries? Have they been writing business plans for very long?

We are a small team of well educated business planning experts. Each writer's background varies but they all have financial or business education as well as years, small business management or consulting and business plan writing experience. They are all well vetted and really good at what they do, which is write plans that help you get funded.

Small Business Definitions

What is a business plan.

In its simplest form, a business plan is a guide —a roadmap for your business that outlines goals and details how you plan to achieve those goals. At its heart, a business plan is just a plan for how your business is going to work, and how you're going to make it succeed.

What is in a business plan?

To write a detailed business plan you need to include the following sections:

The executive summary is an overview of your business and your plans. It comes first in your plan and is ideally only one to two pages. Most people write it last, though.

The opportunity section answers these questions: What are you actually selling and how are you solving a problem (or "need") for your market? Who is your target market and competition?

In the execution chapter of your business plan, you'll answer the question: how are you going to take your opportunity and turn it into a business? This section will cover your marketing and sales plan, operations, and your milestones and metrics for success.

Investors look for great teams in addition to great ideas. Use the company and management chapter to describe your current team and who you need to hire. You will also provide a quick overview of your legal structure, location, and history if you're already up and running.

Your business plan isn't complete without a financial forecast . We'll tell you what to include in your financial plan, but you'll definitely want to start with a sales forecast, cash flow statement, income statement (also called profit and loss), and your balance sheet.

If you need more space for product images or additional information, use the appendix for those details.

Why is a business plan important?

There are many reasons why it is important to have a business plan . A business plan is essential if you're seeking a loan or investment, can help you make big spending decisions with confidence and is a solid foundation for ongoing strategic planning and prioritization.

What is a business plan writer/consultant?

A business plan writer/consultant is a business and financial expert who can help guide you through the process of creating a business plan and do much of the labor involved in creating it. They will work with you to understand your business model, do market research, create financial projections and offer guidance as all of those pieces are brought together in a full business plan document.

How to pick a business plan writer/consultant?

Picking a business plan writer or business plan consultant is an important decision — you'll want to find someone dedicated to your success, with experience in your industry or field and that is in it for the long haul.

Why should you pay someone to write your business plan?

You don't have time. Starting a business is time consuming. Oftentimes people have to juggle a regular 9-5 job while working on starting their business. That doesn't leave a lot of time for a big writing project. Hiring a professional business plan writer can help you give you time to focus on the tasks that are critical to getting your business off the ground.

You want to make sure it is done right, the first time. You only get one chance to make a first impression. Hiring a professional to write your business plan for you can give you the peace of mind that your plan is the best it can be when you present it to potential lenders or investors.

Let’s say for a moment that you’re a business owner or want to start a new business, have a business plan should be one of the first steps to take, and it may not be wise for you to create your business plan yourself. So, hiring a business plan writer to create your business plan is the right choice for you.

Creating a business plan can be quite difficult, but necessary. A business plan is used for various tasks, such as: determining the focus of your company, securing financing, and attracting new investors.

A business plan is a written document that details how a company (usually a new one) will achieve its goals. It describes the nature of your company, your sales and marketing strategy, and the financial background of your company.

It also includes a forecast income statement. Just as a contractor uses a design to make sure a building is structurally sound, the process of creating and writing a design for your company – called a business plan – will help you determine if your company will be strong from the start.

Without a business plan, you are leaving far too many things to chance. If you’re not sure how to create a business plan, hire a business plan creator to create one for you.

A business plan is not a one-time task; it is an ongoing practice. The writing, formatting, and makeup of a business plan are nowhere near as important as its content (although they are still important). and its content should change often.

Real companies with real business plans review and revise them frequently. When you have an event where a business plan is a requirement for a loan, investor, divorce settlement, or strategic ally, you need to go beyond the basics and formalize a business plan with well-written summaries and descriptions.

A Business Plan Writer is a professional that specializes in creating comprehensive and well-structured business plans for individuals or companies.

The primary roles of a business plan writer is to gather information about a business idea, industry, target market, and financial projections, and then organize this information into a coherent document that outlines the goals, strategies, and operational details of the business.

A well-prepared business plan enhances the professionalism and credibility of an organization. It shows stakeholders, including employees, customers, and partners, that the organization has a clear vision, understands its market, and is committed to achieving its objectives.

Business plan writers work to align the business plan with the organization’s overarching goals. This ensures that everyone in the organization is on the same page, working towards common objectives, and fostering a sense of unity and purpose.

Regardless of whether a business plan is to be shared with investors or partners, the key elements of any business plan should include the following

• Executive Summary
• Business overview,
• market analysis,
• competitive analysis,
• Section on organization and management,
• Description of your product or service
• Sales and marketing strategy
• Financial plan.

People often believe that a business plan is for startups that need investment or companies that need credit. While a business plan is especially useful for new businesses, it will benefit any business.

Every business, from charities to non-profits, should have a clear business plan.

A business plan helps you get a clear picture of the whole company, prioritize your goals, stay accountable, develop a strategic course of action, and manage your cash flow.

It also helps you develop strategic focus for your business and make course corrections to prevent your business from going down.

Hire a business planner to understand how a business plan will help your company.

Writing a well thought out and organized business plan will greatly increase your chances of success as an entrepreneur. A good business plan can help:

• Determine if your company has a chance of making a good profit
• Provide an estimate of your startup costs and how much you need to invest or fund
• Convince investors and lenders to fund your business
• Provide a sales estimate (by defining your market – who your customers will be – and the percentage of the market you are likely to reach)
• Make money from the start by developing an effective marketing strategy
• compete in the market (by analysing what your competition is lacking) and
• Anticipate potential problems so you can solve them before they turn into disasters.

Types of a Business Plan

Choosing the appropriate type of business plan depends on the specific needs, goals, and stage of the business.

Each type serves a unique purpose and helps address different aspects of strategic planning and business management. Therefore, here are the types of business plan

This type of business is created for new businesses seeking to establish themselves in the market. It typically includes information about the business concept, target market, competitive analysis, and financial projections.

This is the business plan that used for internal audience within the organization. It focuses on operational details, strategies, and goals to guide the day-to-day activities of the business.

Strategic business plan Concentrates on long-term strategic goals and initiatives. It outlines the vision, mission, and high-level strategies that will guide the organization’s growth.

This business plan is designed for short-term planning, usually covering a one-year period. It includes detailed operational plans, budgeting, and specific actions to achieve short-term objectives.

This business plan is used before starting a new business or launching a new product. It assesses the practicality, viability, and potential success of the venture.

Financial business plan emphasizes financial aspects, including budgeting, revenue projections, and cost analysis. It is important for attracting investors and securing funding.

This types of business plan focuses on sales and marketing strategies, including target market analysis, promotional activities, and sales forecasts.

In this type of plan, they outlines the plan for an exit or succession, indicating how the business owner intends to exit the business, whether through selling, passing it on to family, or other methods.

What are the different aspects of creating a great business plan?

There are many aspects to creating a great business plan.

You need to do extensive research in the following areas:

• Customer research : Find out who your target customers are and what their wants and needs are
• Industry Research : Identify the size of your market and the trends that are influencing it
• Competitive research : identify your direct and indirect competitors as well as their strengths and weaknesses
• Financial Research : Understanding realistic growth rates and costs (salaries, etc.) so that a realistic financial model can be created

Armed with market research, you need to develop the optimal growth strategies. For example, if in your research you have identified an unmet customer need, you should develop strategies to take advantage of this opportunity.

Your financial model or projections may be the most important part of your business plan. Poorly founded financial models will deter most investors. Worse, if your financial projections require too much or too little funding, it will cost you a lot of money.

While it’s important to be a good business writer, it’s even more important to understand the needs of the audience. For example, the world’s best business writer probably didn’t spend much time with venture capitalists.

As a result, they have no idea what this audience wants and probably wouldn’t write a business plan that appealed to them.

Remember that good advisors are in great demand and charge accordingly. Far better to budget for the planning phase and only hire someone well when you can pay their fees than hire someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing and waste your money.

The cost of writing business plans varies between service providers, as well as in terms of length and difficulty. The typical business plan creation fees charged for an average business plan creation are between $600 and $1,000. Very complex business plans can cost more, but should rarely exceed $5,000.

A professional business planner will typically charge anywhere from $5,000 to $20,000 for a full business plan (although there are cases where $50,000 is warranted).

The lower end applies to “simple” businesses like a pizzeria, small retail store, hair salon, etc.

If your business plan involves new or complicated technology, unusual or multiple sources of income, or requires significant investment capital, expect fees at the higher end of this scale.

A good business planner has enough experience to find a way through complexity and find solutions.

First and foremost in hiring a business plan writer, make sure that they are really professionals. Pay attention to the following:

• Do you have a credible website?
• Are you trained?
• Are you doing this for a living or is it just a hobby?
• Do they have satisfied customers and will they refer you to those customers?
• Do they understand your business?
• If the answers are yes to all of these questions, you might be in luck.

Startup business plan Internal business plan Strategic business plan Operational or Annual Business Plan Feasibility study Sales and Marketing Plan Financial business plan Exit Strategy Plan

The cost of writing business plans varies between service providers, as well as in terms of length and difficulty. A professional business planner will typically charge anywhere from $5,000 to $20,000 for a full business plan…

While a well-written business plan can improves the chances of securing funding, success depends on various factors, including market conditions and the business’s viability.

Hiring a business plan writer is not just an investment; it’s a strategic move towards success for any business owner. The benefits, from saving time to enhancing credibility, make it a worthwhile for any business, regardless of size or industry.

Don't know where to start when it comes to writing a business plan? get your marketing strategy with the help of one of our experts.

What Does a Freelance Business Plan Writer Do?

A professional business plan aids in the creation of an action plan to help to develop a business owner’s vision into reality. It addresses critical issues such as customer behavior that can be managed by a customer service specialist , the latest marketing research results, and business cycles. An in-depth business plan examines present and historical market conditions, as well as prospective events that may have an impact on the market and the business.

A freelance business plan consultant understands the need of planning ahead. Our business plan writer does their homework before beginning work on a project. All they do is gathering information about the company.

How to Write a Business Plan?

Begin by making your own plans.

If the goal of your business plan is to help you manage better by establishing strategy, tactics, milestones, metrics, and key projections, tracking results and revising frequently, the keys to success aren't the same as what you'd get from hiring someone to do it for you.

What Items or Programs Are required For Business Plan Writing?

A good business strategy takes more than simply the ability to type words. A wide range of abilities are required to construct an efficient business plan, including deep knowledge of the business and operations, as well as an awareness of marketing and sales tactics.

While you may be familiar with your brand, a writer understands how to persuade an audience through business writing. A freelance writer who isn't affiliated with your company can ensure that your business plan pitch is simple and free of jargon that the audience won't understand.

Our writers follow business plan frameworks that have been tested and verified for more than two decades. As a result, hiring a freelance business plan writer will increase your chances of obtaining a loan or investment.

How to Write a Business Plan Effectively?

When hiring a business plan writer, there are two things to look for:

A business strategy is a continuous process, not a one-time exercise. A business plan's wording, formatting, and aesthetics aren't nearly as vital as its contents (though they're still crucial), and its contents should vary frequently.

Form follows function, as it always does in business. So, first and foremost, you must determine what you truly require for professional purposes.

• Look for someone who is committed to the long term.

To make a plan useful, you must assess findings on a regular basis, track progress, and adjust frequently. So you'll need someone to assist you, either by passing the plan on completely so you can quickly review and revise it or by being accessible afterward to assist with review and revision.

Some freelance business plan writers think like coaches and envision a coaching relationship, while others do not. Working with someone who will offer a strategy and then disappear is not a good idea.

• Look for someone with relevant industry experience.

Given that the content of the plan is far more important than its appearance, you should take advice from someone with relevant experience who can compare your plan to what the experience indicates will actually occur.

You want someone who can tell you if your marketing expenses are unrealistically low or your revenues are unrealistically high. You want someone who can tell you which metrics will be important. Those metrics are usually unique to your company, so you're probably already familiar with them.

Some firms, for example, develop based on traffic, while others grow based on profits per square feet, trips, referrals, presentations, or whatever.

How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Business Plan Writer?

If you're on a tight budget, your initial idea could be to create your own plan using a free template. When you consider how many hours you may be spending collecting information and drafting a plan instead of setting up or running your organization, hiring a remote freelancing consultant may make more economic sense. In fact, our customized business planning service may be less expensive than a conventional, off-the-shelf plan. Plus, what good is conserving money if your company strategy isn't strong enough to acquire the cash you require? You can check out our article about Tips on Hiring and Managing a Team of Freelancers for more information.

Are you looking for someone to draft a business plan for you? You've came to the right place! We understand that for many entrepreneurs, preparing a business plan is a time-consuming procedure. Hiring a business plan consultant will enable you to design a personalized business plan that will guide your company in the right path more swiftly and professionally.

However, before you hire someone, you should be aware of the elements that go into generating excellent business plans as well as the qualities of the correct business plan writer or organization.

For remote freelance work, an experienced business plan writer may expect more payment, but he or she also works faster, has more specialized areas of expertise, and produces higher-quality work.

Advantages of Hiring a Business Plan Writer

Our Freelance Group Plan Writers are here to make the process of creating a business plan easier for you. Not only can you tailor your plan by hiring our freelance writers, but we've also offered tips and ideas as well as lots of samples to help you along the way.

This strategic blueprint not only provides direction but also attracts investors and partners. While many entrepreneurs opt to write their business plans, hiring a professional adds a layer of polish and expertise, elevating the document’s quality. If you’re searching for the best platforms to hire business plan writers, you’ve come to the right place. I’ve sifted through the myriad options to bring you the cream of the crop.

Best Sites to Hire a Business Plan Writer

As an entrepreneur, you understand the importance of meticulous planning and informed decision-making. Hiring a business plan writer is no different. It’s about entrusting a professional to translate your vision, business strategy, and market research into a compelling and actionable document. But where do you find such a specialist? The good news is that several reliable platforms are brimming with talented business plan writers ready to assist you.

1. WriterHire

WriterHire emerges as a valuable platform for entrepreneurs seeking expert business plan writers. This platform specializes in connecting clients with professionals who possess a deep understanding of business strategy, market research, and financial modeling.

Upwork is a global freelancing behemoth, providing a dedicated business plan writing service that bridges business owners and proficient writers. This platform boasts an expansive pool of professional business plan writers, many of whom come with backgrounds in business administration, ensuring they are equipped to craft a solid business plan tailored to your unique needs. Upwork lets you view writers’ profiles, read reviews, delve into their business administration experiences, and assess their portfolios. Additionally, Upwork facilitates secure payments, making the entire process of acquiring a business plan as smooth as possible. The platform also prioritizes clear communication between clients and freelancers.

However, the platform’s strength, its massive user base, can also be a challenge. With so many professionals offering their business plan writing services expertise, finding the perfect match can sometimes be overwhelming. Prospective clients should also note that there’s a service fee associated with each transaction.

• Secure payment system
• Built-in communication tools
• Advanced search filters

Posting a job is free, but there’s a service fee on each transaction.

In the ever-evolving freelance marketplace, Guru is emerging as a fantastic platform for finding business plan writers. It offers a harmonious balance between simplicity and powerful features tailored for entrepreneurs seeking a professional business plan writer. The platform is designed with acute attention to detail, making the hiring process seamless. One of its standout features, the WorkRoom, goes beyond promoting efficient collaboration. It acts as a hub where entrepreneurs can keep track of project progress, including components like the cash flow statement, share files, and ensure their comprehensive vision for the business plan is being meticulously realized. To bolster trust, Guru’s SafePay payment system guarantees security, cultivating a trustworthy environment for clients and freelancers.

However, no platform is devoid of challenges. Despite its prowess, Guru poses a dilemma: with its vast array of skilled freelancers adept at writing business plans, narrowing down the perfect professional business plan writer tailored to your specific needs can be a journey. Moreover, while the WorkRoom feature is undoubtedly a boon for seamless collaboration, newcomers might initially grapple with its interface, suggesting a minor learning curve ahead.

• WorkRoom for collaboration
• SafePay payment system
• Transparent freelancer reviews and ratings

While posting a job on Guru is free, they charge a handling fee for payments to freelancers.

4. Freelancer

Freelancer is a go-to for many entrepreneurs seeking top business plan writers. What sets Freelancer apart is its unique bidding system.

Taking client satisfaction a notch higher, Freelancer has instituted milestone-based payments, ensuring that funds are released only when specific project stages, such as business model drafting or financial forecasting, are meticulously completed, guaranteeing an extra layer of security for clients.

Yet, every strength can be a double-edged sword. The very bidding system that positions Freelancer as a leader can be its Achilles’ heel for some users. Those new or unfamiliar with the platform might find the influx of bids from top business plan writers a tad daunting, which could render the selection process overwhelming.

• Competitive bidding system for projects
• Milestone-based payments
• Real-time chat for seamless communication

Posting a project on Freelancer is free, but a fee applies when you accept a bid from a freelancer.

However, unparalleled quality is often mirrored in the price. Toptal, in its quest to deliver the elite, does come with a premium price tag. While the platform is synonymous with ensuring you’re collaborating with the best in the business, their rates can be a notch higher compared to other market players. Furthermore, their commitment to quality, underlined by a rigorous vetting process, means the pool of available business plan writers is selective. This could challenge those with niche requirements or seeking diverse freelance business plan writer options.

• Highly vetted professionals
• No-risk trial for clients
• Custom matching with professionals

Toptal offers a unique pricing model, offering upfront quotes based on project requirements.

However, the very diversity that Fiverr champions can also present challenges. While alluring, the vast range of price points implies a spectrum of service quality. Undoubtedly, Fiverr houses numerous top-tier business plan writers, and professionals who can draft an investor-ready business plan with finesse. Yet, the risk of encountering less seasoned writers lingers. Prospective clients must tread cautiously, dedicating time to review profiles, analyze past work, and gauge client feedback before finalizing their choice.

• Wide range of price points
• Direct communication with freelancers
• Customizable service packages

While browsing is free, the pricing varies depending on the freelancer’s rates, starting as low as $5.

While PeoplePerHour brings many strengths to the table, some users opine that its user interface doesn’t quite match the intuitiveness some competitors offer. Furthermore, the service fees, though competitive at a glance, have the potential to accumulate, especially for expansive projects or sustained collaborations. This underscores the need for businesses, especially those in the business consulting and venture capital sectors, to meticulously review their overall budget and ensure alignment with their objectives.

• In-built project management tools
• Escrow payment system
• Hourly and project-based pricing available

Posting a job is free, with a service fee added to the freelancer’s charges upon project completion.

At the heart of business planning is Bplans carves a unique niche by functioning as both a rich resource hub and a conduit to some of the best business plan writers in the industry. It beckons to budding entrepreneurs and existing businesses with its sample business plans, cutting-edge tools, and insightful articles. These invaluable resources are instrumental in honing business strategies and ensuring they resonate with market dynamics and realities. To complement these assets, Bplans also facilitates direct connections to business plan consultants, guaranteeing that an enterprise’s vision is articulated with unmatched professionalism.

However, the multi-dimensional nature of Bplans, with its emphasis on educational resources and writer connections, could be a double-edged sword for some users. Those searching for a more linear and straightforward hiring experience might find the platform’s richness slightly daunting. While valuable for strategic planning, it might come off as overwhelming for some, especially those new to the existing business landscape. Moreover, Bplans, being more of a gateway to business insights and less of a traditional hiring portal, may not boast as expansive a roster of writers as dedicated platforms do.

• Access to sample business plans
• Tools for market research and financial projections
• Direct links to business plan consultants

Accessing resources is free, but prices for hiring a business plan writer vary based on expertise.

9. Wise Business Plans

For those seeking specialized attention, Wise Business Plans emerges as a formidable choice. Dedicating its expertise to the intricate business planning process, it crafts an experience meticulously tailored for those pursuing comprehensive, investor-ready plans. Boasting a team of U.S.-based MBA-qualified writers, Wise Business Plans emphasizes exhaustive market research, precise financial projections, and a bespoke approach attuned to the distinct needs of every business.

Yet, this specialization and expertise aren’t devoid of challenges. The associated cost can be a concern for some. Given the in-depth research and high level of customization they guarantee, their pricing model might not sit well with those working within constricted budgets. Additionally, while their razor-sharp focus on business plans unquestionably ensures mastery in that domain, it could also signify restricted flexibility for clients whose needs meander beyond the conventional contours of business planning.

• US-based MBA-qualified writers
• Custom business plans with an executive summary
• Emphasis on market research and financial analysis

The pricing structure is custom, depending on the depth and complexity of the business plan.

10. Bargain Business Plan

A testament to quality not always demanding a premium, Bargain Business Plan Drawing upon a cadre of skilled business plan writers, they pivot on affordability, ensuring that nascent ventures are founded upon well-researched and investor-ready plans. Their ethos revolves around the idea that every startup, regardless of its budget, should have access to professional business planning services that lay a solid foundation for their venture.

However, the allure of a “bargain” might instill a sense of skepticism in some potential users, casting a shadow of doubt on the caliber of service offered. Even though they boast a dedicated team and a slew of commendable reviews, it’s paramount for prospects to fathom that their competitive pricing could occasionally translate to a lengthier turnaround time or curtailed attention to revisions, especially when juxtaposed with more premium-priced alternatives.

• Dedicated project manager for each client
• Emphasis on financial modeling and market analysis
• Non-disclosure agreement for client peace of mind

Though they focus on affordability, the pricing is custom-tailored to the specifics of each business plan.

Entities steering towards acquiring investors, they evolve as indispensable allies, marrying adept business planning with the nuances of investment attraction.

However, the boutique dimension of their offerings presents certain intricacies. Their stringent adherence to selectivity and unwavering focus on pristine quality might occasionally culminate in limited accessibility, particularly during heightened demand. Furthermore, potential patrons might perceive their pricing as leaning towards the premium spectrum, attributable to the unparalleled, personalized attention.

• Comprehensive market research and analysis
• Investor-ready business plans
• Financial projections with a detailed financial plan

Prices vary based on the complexity of the business plan and the required research.

12. Go Business Plans

They go beyond mere writing, offering consultation services to help entrepreneurs form a well-rounded business strategy. With their team’s expertise, they craft plans that consider every facet of a business, from market research to financial projections.

However, their comprehensive approach might not suit everyone. Entrepreneurs seeking a written business plan without the added consultation might find the platform more than they need. Additionally, the depth and breadth of their services can come at a premium, stretching beyond some budgets.

• One-on-one business plan consultant sessions
• Emphasis on market research and financial projections
• Custom business plans tailored to client needs

Pricing is based on the depth of consultation and business plan requirements.

10 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Business Plan Writer

1 min. read

Updated October 27, 2023

No, it’s not that I have anything against business plan writers for hire. I spent some years doing that, although I never just wrote the plan; I always facilitated and translated and coached planning. (Unless, of course, you’ve read my post on my worst business plan engagement, in which case you’ll know I’ve used “never” and “always” wrong in the above).

• If you wanted to get your body in shape, would you hire somebody else to eat better and exercise regularly?
• How would you feel about sending somebody else to the doctor to be examined to determine your health?
• How do you feel about pre-packaged vacations?
• What would you tell your ghost writer? How long would that take you? Could you type that out, maybe? Could you do it in YouTube?
• How will you deal with questions that come up, after the plan is done?
• How much good will a single one-time plan document do you?
• What will you do about revisions later on? Will you just accept a plan done once, and never revise?
• How long would you estimate is the average shelf life of a written business plan, before it begs for revisions?
• What would you do about regularly reviewing and revising a business plan that some outside business plan writer had written?
• How would you get a team of people committed to a business plan that an outsider wrote?

The Best Project Plan Template

• Michaela Rollings
• August 23, 2024

Table of Contents

In any organization, project plans are essential documents that outline the goals, objectives, scope, timelines, resources, and potential risks associated with a specific project.

These plans provide a roadmap for all team members to follow and help ensure that everyone is on the same page and working towards a common goal. Better yet, having a project plan template make that roadmap even more clear and replicable across teams.

The Main Benefits of Project Plans

One of the key benefits of project plans is that they provide a clear direction for all team members involved in the project. By clearly outlining the goals and objectives of the project, team members can understand what is expected of them and how their individual contributions fit into the bigger picture. This helps to align everyone’s efforts towards achieving the desired outcome – and that’s even easier with a project plan template.

Project plans also help to ensure that projects are completed on time and within budget. By outlining the specific timelines and resources required for each phase of the project, project managers can better track progress and make adjustments as needed to keep the project on track.

Hive’s to-do list view pictured above.

This helps to mitigate the risk of delays and cost overruns, which can have a significant impact on the overall success of the project.

Additionally, project plans help to identify potential risks and challenges that may arise during the project. By considering these factors early on, project managers can develop strategies to address them proactively and minimize their impact on the project.

This can help to improve the overall chances of success and reduce the likelihood of unforeseen issues derailing the project. Making project plans repeatable with a project plan template also helps the reduction of issues that could arise.

What Does A Project Plan Template Help You Do?

What’s even better than any old project plan? A free project plan template, built custom for your team and needs. When you’re just starting out, you don’t always have the money, time, or energy to spend on paying someone to build out a complex plan. But our free project plan plan template will cover that for you.

Set Clear Goals

One of the key reasons why project plans are important is that they help teams to clarify their vision and set concrete goals for their project. By outlining the project’s mission, objectives, and strategies, a project plan provides a framework for decision-making and helps to keep the team or organization on track towards its long-term goals – it can even help you automate them.

Without a clear plan in place, it can be easy for teams to lose focus and become overwhelmed by day-to-day operations. That’s why we’re helping you develop this project plan template – it will take you 60 seconds to create, and it will save you HOURS down the line. Here’s why it’s helpful to have a project plan template.

Communicate With Stakeholders

In addition to providing a roadmap for the business, a well-developed project plan also serves as a communication tool for stakeholders. Whether it’s potential investors, employees, or suppliers, a project plan can help to convey the project’s goals and objectives in a clear and concise manner. There’s no easier way to ensure you’re all on the same page than a project template.

This can be particularly important when seeking financing, as lenders and investors will want to see a well-thought-out plan that demonstrates the company’s potential for success.

Anticipating Future Challenges

Another key reason why project plans and a project plan template are important is that they help store and replicate successful past projects. If you’ve got a project template that has been battle-tested and used throughout the course of months and years, it’s easier to guarantee project success.

This level of preparation can also help the business to navigate unforeseen challenges and adapt to changing market conditions.

6 Steps to Writing A Project Plan

Writing a project plan is essential for effectively managing and executing a project. To ensure success, it is important to follow a systematic approach to develop a comprehensive and well-thought-out plan.

The following are the steps needed to write a project plan, whether it’s from a project plan template for Word, or something more complex, like an agile project plan template:

1. Define the project scope: Identify the objectives, deliverables, timeline, budget, and resources required for the project. Clearly outline what needs to be accomplished and the constraints that need to be considered.

2. Identify key stakeholders: Determine who will be involved in the project and their roles and responsibilities. This includes team members, sponsors, clients, and any other relevant parties.

3. Create a work breakdown structure: Break down the project into smaller tasks and subtasks to organize and prioritize the work that needs to be done. This will help ensure that all aspects of the project are considered and accounted for.

4. Develop a timeline: Create a schedule that outlines the start and end dates of the project, as well as key milestones and deadlines. This will help keep the project on track and ensure that tasks are completed in a timely manner.

5. Assign resources: Allocate resources, such as personnel, equipment, and budget, to each task in the project plan. This will help ensure that the necessary resources are available to complete the project successfully.

6. Monitor and control progress: Establish metrics and key performance indicators to track progress and measure the success of the project. Regularly review and update the project plan to address any deviations or issues that arise.

By following these steps, you can develop a well-structured and detailed project plan that will guide the successful completion of your project.

Ford scraps all-electric SUV plan, saying drivers want hybrids

Bill Chappell

A Ford F-150 Lightning electric pickup truck is displayed for sale at a Ford dealership on Aug. 21 in Glendale, Calif. Ford says it is upending its electric vehicle strategy for North American vehicles to focus on hybrids, citing consumers' demands for affordability and longer ranges. Mario Tama/Getty Images hide caption

If you’re a potential family car customer who’s holding off on buying an electric vehicle because of high prices and road trip anxiety , Ford is thinking about you. In fact, the automaker is hedging its electric vehicle plans, betting that most consumers would rather buy a hybrid than a full EV.

“When you look at the three-row SUV, hybrid technologies or multiple propulsion technologies, for those customers, is the best solution.,” John Lawler, Ford vice chair and chief financial officer, said on Wednesday in a conference call with journalists.  

Ford is losing a lot of money in electric cars — but CEO Jim Farley is charging ahead

Ford, which is the No. 2 U.S. EV company, had been working to produce an all-electric three-row SUV. But it tapped the brakes on that vehicle earlier this year, and now, Lawler and Ford say, it’s stalled. Instead, Ford will offer hybrid versions of the SUVs. The next EVs in its pipeline are now pickup trucks and commercial vans — areas where Lawler sees a competitive edge.

Ford says all its new vehicles must make a profit in 12 months

The strategic shift reflects Ford’s new requirement for any vehicle to become profitable within 12 months after its launch date — a tall hurdle for an all-electric three-row SUV. Add that to an EV market that’s been cooling on the consumer side even as businesses ramp up their offerings and competitive pressures, and Ford’s leadership saw fit to change course.

“We're seeing a tremendous amount of competition” in the SUV segment, Lawler said. “In fact, S&P Global … said that there's about 143 EVs in the pipeline right now for North America — and most of those are two-row and three-row SUVs.”

The change comes as Ford tries to flip the numbers around on EVs. As NPR reported earlier this year, the company has been losing money on every EV it sells . It’s had to scale back sales projections as it prepares for more changes, including an anticipated wave of new Chinese competitors. The company says it’s still working on producing a smaller car, for instance. And it’s moving battery production to North America to let it take advantage of production and consumer incentives.

A road trip in an electric vehicle doesn't have to be nerve-wracking anymore

Spiking the SUV EV comes with a cost: Ford says it will take a “special non-cash charge of about $400 million for the write-down” related to manufacturing assets, with additional expenses possibly rising up to $1.5 billion.

Ford will keep selling its current fully electric vehicles — the Mustang Mach-E and the F-150 Lightning pickup, along with commercial vans. The company isn’t yet saying whether it will offer plug-in hybrid SUVs. But the switch from EV to hybrid SUVs could ease the strain on its bottom line.

It’s all about battery size

“With EVs, it's all about the battery,” Stephanie Valdez Streaty, director of industry insights at Cox Automotive, told NPR. Depending on the variables, she added, batteries can account for up to 40% to 45% of a vehicle’s cost.

That’s particularly true for a big SUV with long range. For carmakers, shifting from full EV to hybrid offers more wiggle room.

“When you can take down the battery size, whether it's a plug-in or some type of extended-range type vehicle — on these larger vehicles, like a three-row SUV, the profit profile is better,” Lawler said. “Because … the cost of the battery is so outsized for vehicles like this.”

Hybrid cars are still incredibly popular, but are they good for the environment?

Streaty says the equation will change a bit as battery technology advances. But she also says consumers may simply need to evaluate how much range they really need — and get used to the idea that a bigger battery means a bigger price tag.

“That's why I think plug-in hybrids are a good option for consumers who want to go electric, but really need to have that option to [also use] gas if they need to go on a long trip,” she said.

As for the changes announced by Ford, the carmaker isn’t alone in adjusting its plans, Streaty said, noting that GM and Tesla have also seen production cuts.

“There's still consumer demand,” Streaty said. “We had a record quarter last year for EVs in the U.S., but the pace of growth is slowed down.”

“I think the big thing is, this should be expected. Pure battery electric transition is hard, right?”

Carmakers like Ford, she said, must track a moving target as they try to match consumer demand. That ranges from manufacturing and charging infrastructure to consumers adapting to a different car ownership experience, Streaty said.

“We're going to have ups and downs,” she said.

Reporting from Washington

In a campaign otherwise light on policy specifics, Vice President Kamala Harris this week quietly rolled out her most detailed, far-ranging proposal yet: nearly $5 trillion in tax increases over a decade.

That’s how much more revenue the federal government would raise if it adopted a number of tax increases that President Biden proposed in the spring . Ms. Harris’s campaign said this week that she supported those tax hikes, which were thoroughly laid out in the most recent federal budget plan prepared by the Biden administration.

No one making less than $400,000 a year would see their taxes go up under the plan. Instead, Ms. Harris is seeking to significantly raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans and large corporations. Congress has previously rejected many of these tax ideas, even when Democrats controlled both chambers.

While tax policy is right now a subplot in a turbulent presidential campaign, it will be a primary policy issue in Washington next year. The next president will have to work with Congress to address the tax cuts Donald J. Trump signed into law in 2017. Many of those tax cuts expire after 2025, meaning millions of Americans will see their taxes go up if lawmakers don’t reach a deal next year.

Here’s an overview of what we now know — and still don’t know — about the Democratic nominee’s views on taxes.

Higher taxes on corporations

The most recent White House budget includes several proposals that would raise taxes on large corporations . Chief among them is raising the corporate tax rate to 28 percent from 21 percent, a step that the Treasury Department estimated could bring in $1.3 trillion in revenue over the next 10 years.
