Frequently Asked Questions❓

Q1: Do you guarantee funding approval?

A: We guarantee that your plan will meet the evaluation standards of South African funders — but no consultant can guarantee an approval, as final decisions depend on many factors. What we do promise is that your business plan will be crafted to pass bank and DFI review criteria, giving you the best possible shot at securing funding.

Q2: How long does the process take?

A: Our standard turnaround is about 10 to 14 business days from the time you provide all required information. We align our timeline with common South African funding deadlines, so you’ll be ready to apply on schedule.

Q3: Can I use this plan for multiple funders?

A: Absolutely. We design your plan in a modular way, so it can be easily adapted for different funders — whether you’re applying to a bank like FNB, a DFI like SEFA, or even pitching to angel investors. You get a versatile document that’s funder-agnostic.

Q4: Is there a payment plan available?

A: Yes. We offer a 50/50 split payment: 50% upfront to start the work, and the remaining 50% upon draft approval. This makes it easier for SMEs to manage cash flow while still getting a high-quality plan.

Q5: What industries do you specialize in?

A: We have successfully crafted plans for a wide range of South African industries — including agriculture, retail, manufacturing, tech, logistics, beauty, and more. Our consultants tailor the research and financials to your sector, so your plan resonates with industry-specific funders

Q6: What if I already have a business plan?

A: We offer a Plan Upgrade Service where we audit your existing plan and enhance it to meet the Standard Plan’s investor-grade criteria. This costs less than a full plan creation and ensures your current work isn’t wasted.
