Wondering what the cost of a business plan is these days? The short – but frustrating – answer is that it can vary wildly. The cost of your business plan depends on what you need, the experience of the people (or software) you pay to write it, and additional factors, such as how quickly you need the business plan. Prices can range from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars. So how, then, do you determine how much you in particular need to spend and what cost of a business plan is reasonable to you. To determine this, start by sussing out your needs and asking yourself the following:
• Do I intend to use the plan to seek funding?
• What kind of funding do I need?
• Does my concept require complex research?
• Are extensive financials probably going to be necessary?
The first two questions should help you determine whether it makes sense to hire a professional to write your business plan. If you intend to seek funding, and particularly if you are after a bank loan or venture capital investment, it makes sense to hire professional writers who know what both these individuals want. In addition, if you need extensive research and complex financials – both things that can be tricky for a first time entrepreneur to complete – you may also want to hire professionals. While this certainly can be more expensive, and can jack up the cost of a business plan, in these instances, it might make more sense in the long term because it will help you secure sufficient capital.
