Business Plan Writing Services in Vancouver and BC
MaxPro Financials writes business plans for Vancouver and BC businesses that need to secure a bank or BDC loan, attract investors, support a business immigration application or set a clear direction for growth. Our team are accountants, so the financial projections are built properly: cash flow, profit and loss and balance sheet that tie together, which is the part lenders and investors look at first.
- Written for your reader — a lender, an investor or an immigration officer each needs different things from a plan
- 3 to 5 years of financial projections — monthly for the first year, with the assumptions explained
- Local market research — competitors, customers and pricing in your area of Vancouver or BC
- Ready to submit — a finished plan document plus the spreadsheet model behind the numbers
Most plans are completed within two to four weeks. Every engagement starts with a free consultation and a fixed quote.
Business Plans We Write
Bank and BDC loan business plans
Lenders want to see that the loan can be repaid. We focus on cash flow, debt service coverage, security and a realistic sales ramp, and present the numbers the way credit teams at banks and the BDC expect to read them.
Investor and pitch business plans
For equity investors the plan has to show the size of the opportunity, why your team can capture it, how much you are raising and what the investor gets. We also prepare the summary version you need for a pitch deck.
Immigration and start-up business plans
Provincial and federal entrepreneur immigration programs require a business plan that meets their specific investment, job-creation and ownership requirements. We write the plan to those requirements and make sure the financials support what the application claims.
Strategic and internal plans
For established businesses planning an expansion, a new location or a change of direction, we build a plan and budget that your management team can actually run the business against.
What’s Included in Your Business Plan
- Executive summary — the one page most readers decide on
- Company overview and ownership
- Products and services, with pricing
- Market and competitor analysis for your location and industry
- Marketing and sales plan
- Operations, management and staffing
- Financial projections — 3 to 5 years of profit and loss, cash flow and balance sheet, monthly for year one
- Funding request and use of funds
- Key assumptions and risks
You receive the plan as an editable document and PDF, together with the financial model in Excel so the numbers can be updated later.
How Much Does a Business Plan Cost?
Price depends on the type of plan, how much research it needs and how detailed the financial model has to be. The ranges below are typical for professionally written plans in Canada; we confirm a fixed fee after the free consultation.
| Type of plan | Typical fee (CAD) | Typical turnaround |
|---|---|---|
| Start-up or internal plan | $1,500 – $3,000 | About 2 weeks |
| Bank or BDC loan plan | $2,500 – $5,000 | 2 – 3 weeks |
| Investor or immigration plan | $4,000 – $10,000+ | 3 – 4 weeks |
The quickest plans are the ones where the owner has the key numbers ready: startup costs, expected pricing and any quotes for equipment or premises.
Our Process and Timeline
- Free consultation. We discuss your business, who the plan is for and your deadline, then send a fixed quote.
- Intake and research (week 1). You complete a short questionnaire and send what you already have. We research your market and competitors.
- Financial model (week 2). We build the projections with you, so the assumptions are yours and you can defend them.
- Full draft (weeks 2–3). You receive the complete plan to review.
- Revisions and final plan (weeks 3–4). We make your changes and deliver the final plan and model.
Why an Accountant-Written Business Plan Is More Credible
- The numbers hold up. Projections are built as linked financial statements, not a revenue guess with expenses added.
- Tax is built in. Incorporation, GST and PST, payroll costs and income tax are reflected correctly, so the cash flow is realistic.
- Financing experience. Our founder, Alex (Naser) Mohassesi, has more than 20 years of experience in business planning and financing, including around $10 million raised for small businesses.
- Support after the plan. When the funding comes through, we can incorporate the business and set up bookkeeping and payroll.
