Business plan editing services can be found in several forms. One is to simply bring your work-in-progress to a small business development center or area SCORE office. While they won't sit with you and edit it word for word, you're sure to leave with a better sense of the rough draft's strong points and weaknesses. If you feel the draft is already quite polished and just needs to be spot-checked before you “hit print,†you could actually hire an editor off of the Internet from a site like Craigslist. (It probably isn't necessary that the editor have business experience, though it can't hurt.) If you need more support than this, consider hiring a professional business plan consulting firm. Taking this path, you'd get:
• Industry-specific research leads and materials
• Access to resources that can strengthen your plan
• Personalized consulting with a project manager
• Business-specific guidance
• An available comparison to past plans similar to your venture
• Trained editors who can review your narrative and your financials
