Common Problems
When Does an Existing Business Plan Need Work?
You may already have a draft, an older plan, or feedback from a lender, investor, or immigration advisor. The right next step depends on what the plan needs to accomplish and how much of the existing work you can use.
You have a draft and need a second opinion
Find out which sections are useful, where a reader is likely to have questions, and what to fix before sharing the plan.
You’ve been asked for more detail
A lender may ask how you’ll use the funds. An immigration advisor may flag gaps in your investment or hiring plan. We can use that feedback to identify what to address.
The financials and the written plan don’t line up
Pricing, staffing, launch dates, and funding needs should agree across the plan and forecast. We identify where the assumptions differ.
Your business has changed since the plan was written
A new location, revised startup costs, or recent operating results can change what the plan needs to show and which sections need an update.

What We Review
What Will a Reader Look for in Your Business Plan?
We review the existing plan in light of the decision it needs to support, whether that’s a loan application, an investor discussion, a business immigration application, or an internal decision.
Executive Summary & Purpose
Can the reader quickly understand the business, the reason for the plan, and the decision or funding request?
Business Model & Sales Strategy
Is it clear who buys, what they pay, how you reach them, and what drives sales?
Market & Competition
Do the market sources support your target customer and location? Does the plan explain why customers would choose you?
Operations, Staffing & Milestones
Do hiring, capacity, and launch milestones support the growth and sales the plan projects?
Financial Projections & Funding
Do sales, expenses, cash needs, and the use of funds follow from the assumptions in the plan?
Structure, Clarity & Consistency
Can a reviewer find the information they need, and do the narrative, tables, and figures tell the same story?
Business Immigration Context
For immigration plans, we also look at how the document supports the proposed investment, hiring, implementation milestones, and economic contribution where relevant to the program.
Our Process

-
Review or Revise the Plan
We prepare the written assessment or make the agreed changes, using your materials and following up where we need clarification.

Why Mikel Consulting
Business Planning and Financial Modelling in One Team
Our team writes business plans and builds financial models for financing, investment, and business immigration. That experience helps us distinguish a writing issue from a gap in the research, the operating plan, or the numbers.
Feedback Tied to Your Reader
A lender needs to see how the business will repay the loan. An investor may focus on growth and capital use. An immigration plan may need to support commitments on investment, hiring, and implementation. We evaluate the plan in that context.
Attention to What Drives the Forecast
We look at whether sales volumes, pricing, staffing, and startup costs support the forecast and whether those assumptions are explained in the plan.
Useful Work Carries Forward
We build on usable research, financials, and business details. If part of the plan needs more work, we identify what’s missing before we quote it.
Priorities You Can Act On
We separate changes that affect the business case from minor wording and formatting edits, so you can decide what to address first.

Frequently Asked Questions
Business Plan Review & Rewrite FAQs
Should I choose a review, rewrite, or update?
Choose a review if you want to understand what needs work before deciding who will make the changes. A rewrite makes sense if the document needs substantial work on its writing, structure, or presentation. An update is usually the better fit if the plan still works and only specific information or assumptions have changed.
What do I receive with a business plan review?
You receive written feedback on the strengths, gaps, and priorities in your current plan, including a high-level look at the assumptions behind any financial projections presented. You can use the feedback to revise the plan yourself or request a quote for help with the changes.
What does the $400 CAD business immigration review include?
We review one existing business plan for one immigration program. You receive written feedback on the business case, investment, hiring, milestones, and financial assumptions, with prioritized recommendations. We focus on the business plan. Your immigration representative can advise on eligibility and application strategy.
Can you rewrite an existing immigration business plan?
Yes. Share the current plan, the intended program, and any feedback from your immigration representative. We’ll assess what can be carried forward and quote the rewrite based on the amount of writing, research, and financial work required.
Can you work from a plan I wrote myself or made with AI?
Yes. We can start from your draft, a template-based plan, an AI-assisted draft, or a document prepared by another provider. The scope depends on how much we can use and what evidence, financial information, or business details still need to be developed.
Can you address feedback on my plan?
Yes. Send comments from your lender, investor, or immigration advisor with the plan and any supporting files. We can use that feedback to define the scope, whether it involves clarifying the use of funds, supporting a sales forecast, or adding detail about operations or staffing.
Can you update or rebuild my financial projections?
We can review the assumptions shown in the plan and agree on any targeted financial changes in your quote. If the projections need new schedules, a new forecast, or a rebuilt Excel workbook, we can quote that work separately. Share your editable workbook if you have it.
How long will the work take?
Timing depends on the page count, the condition of the draft, and the amount of research or financial work required. We confirm the delivery date after seeing the materials. If you have a submission deadline, include it when you send the plan.
How does the commercial review credit work?
If we recommend a commercial rewrite after your paid commercial review and you accept the proposal within seven days of receiving it, we’ll apply up to $199 CAD of the review fee toward that commercial rewrite.
What should I send to get started?
Send the most recent version of your plan, the Excel projections if available, and any feedback or requirements from the intended reader. Tell us the purpose of the plan, the immigration program if applicable, your deadline, and what has changed since it was written. An editable Word file is helpful for a rewrite or update.
