Business Plan Writer Qualifications
There are business plan writers with different qualifications, so entrepreneurs should consider the following factors when choosing a business plan writing service:
Experience: What is the business plan writer’s level of experience in business planning, market research, and developing a financial plan with projections? You want a writer with a strong background in each critical area of business plan writing.
Education: A business plan writer with a Master’s degree (or equivalent) in business administration or related field is preferred.
Reviews: Does the business plan expert have any reviews from previous clients?
Why Not Write Your Own Business Plan?
While some companies can develop business plans on their own, most do not have time for this. Moreover, many business owners do not have the proper business writing skills to help convince their intended audience. For these reasons, business owners should hire a business plan writer.
A professional business plan writer will:
Conduct market research for you
Work with you to create the best strategies to grow your business
Create financial projections
Write your plan geared to your audience. Your audience could range from yourself, your team, partners, banks, angel investors, venture capitalists, etc. In any of these cases, when hiring someone to write a business plan, make sure they have a working knowledge of the needs of your intended audience in order to write a plan that appeals to them.
When to Hire a Business Plan Writer
If you are lacking time, and don’t have significant expertise in the four areas listed above, consider hiring a business plan writer.
The top business plan writers:
Have a long track record of success in and outside of your industry (outside of your industry is most important as that allows them to give you strategic ideas that have worked well in other markets that can apply to yours)
Can conduct market research and subscribe to market research databases that give them access to expensive industry reports
Know how to create sophisticated and valid financial projections
Understand the wants and needs of lenders, investors, and other audiences so they can tailor the plan according
Can create a fully customized pitch deck to help you present your business plan to potential investors and lenders

The best business plans are written by consultants that have written numerous business plans and have continued to work with their clients long-term. Such business plan consultants have gained the experience regarding what aspects of their business plans resonated with investors and lenders and why their clients were successful or unsuccessful in growing their companies.
The best business plan writers often have a degree in business administration, a long track record of success writing business plans inside and outside your industry, and positive reviews from previous clients. Business owners who want to work with someone to write a business plan should consider whether they lack time, expertise in the four areas listed above, or both. Business plan writers for hire don't need to know everything about your business but should be able to conduct market research and create a sophisticated financial plan as well as know the wants of lenders, investors, and other audiences so that they can tailor the plan accordingly.
A business plan writer/consultant is an individual who has considerable experience and expertise in business and financial planning who can develop your business plan with you. Such a consultant is able to conduct market research, develop financial projections and work with you to figure out the best strategy to grow your company, and then package this information into a business plan that compels readers to take action.
Yes. An experienced business plan writer will work with you on all aspects of your business such as marketing, expansion, and even exit strategy plans, but it also depends on the business owner's budget and needs. Please consult with a business plan writer to discuss the specific needs of your business.
They are masters of business planning and will work with you on all aspects of business, but it also depends on your business needs. For more information, please consult a business plan writer.
Chances are, you don't have the expertise in all four business areas. For instance, you may have extensive experience in marketing, but less of an expert in finance or business strategy. By hiring a business plan writer, you can focus on what you do best while someone else takes on what they do best. This will save time and money for both parties involved while ensuring that everything is handled to make your business a success.
A good business plan requires the following 4 strategic planning processes:
Market Research
You need to conduct considerable research in the following areas:
Customer Research: learning about who your target customers are and their wants and needs
Industry Research: identifying the size of your market and trends affecting it
Competitive Research: figuring out your direct and indirect competitors and the strengths and weaknesses of each
Financial Research: in-depth understanding of realistic growth rates and costs (salaries, etc.) so a realistic financial model can be created
Strategy
Armed with the market analysis, you need to create the optimal growth strategies for your company. For example, if you identified an unmet customer need in your research, you should create strategies to capitalize on this opportunity.
Financial Modeling
Your financial modeling is perhaps the most important part of your plan. This section includes a projected income statement, cash flow statement and balance sheet. Poorly reasoned financial models will dissuade most investors. Worse yet, if your financial forecasting calls for too much or too little funding, it will cost you dearly.
Business Plan Writing
The fourth aspect of a solid business plan is writing. While it’s important to be a good business writer, even more important is to understand the needs of the audience. For example, the world’s best writer probably hasn’t spent much time with venture capital firms. As a result, they have no idea what this audience wants, and would probably fail to write a professional plan that appealed to them.
The fully customized business plan should also include the following essential elements:
A business plan writer is someone who has extensive experience in writing business plans and knows what works and what doesn’t.
