Commercial Services FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which commercial service I need?
The right service depends on your goal, review audience, and the type of decision or funding request you are preparing for. If you are applying for a loan, you may need a bank loan business plan and financial forecast. If you are raising investor capital, you may need an investor business plan, pitch deck, and financial model. If you are testing a new project, you may need a feasibility study. If you are unsure, we can review your situation and recommend the most appropriate service.
Do I need a business plan, pitch deck, or financial model?
A business plan is usually best when a lender, investor, landlord, funder, or partner needs a detailed written explanation of the business. A pitch deck is best when you need a concise visual presentation for investor meetings or outreach. A financial model is best when you need detailed forecasts, assumptions, cash flow, repayment capacity, valuation logic, or scenario analysis. Many funding projects benefit from more than one of these documents.
What is the difference between a bank loan business plan and an investor business plan?
A bank loan business plan is written for lenders and focuses heavily on repayment capacity, use of funds, owner investment, market support, cash flow, and risk management. An investor business plan is written for equity or growth capital and focuses more on market opportunity, scalability, competitive advantage, growth strategy, use of funds, and potential return. The structure, tone, and financial narrative should be adjusted depending on who will review the document.
Do I need a financial model with my business plan?
In many cases, yes. A financial model helps support the business plan by showing revenue assumptions, expenses, cash flow, funding needs, repayment ability, profitability, and financial scenarios. For bank loans, the model can help demonstrate repayment capacity. For investors, it can help explain growth potential, valuation logic, and return assumptions. Some smaller projects may only need basic projections, while more complex funding requests often require a full model.
Can one business plan be used for banks, investors, grants, and landlords?
Sometimes one core business plan can be adapted for multiple purposes, but the strongest approach is usually to tailor the document to the review audience. Banks, investors, grant providers, and landlords all evaluate different risks and opportunities. A lender may care most about repayment and collateral, while an investor may focus on growth potential, and a grant provider may focus on impact and program fit. We can help determine whether one plan is sufficient or whether separate versions are needed.
What is white-glove bank loan support?
White-glove bank loan support is for clients who want more than a lender-ready business plan. Depending on the situation, this may include preparing the business plan, organizing supporting documents, building or reviewing the financial forecast, helping structure the application package, connecting the client with a preferred bank or lending provider, and supporting the process so the financing request is presented professionally. Lending approval is always determined by the lender.
Can you prepare a full investor materials package?
Yes. For investor-focused projects, we can prepare a complete set of investor materials. This may include an investor business plan, pitch deck, financial model, use of funds summary, investor-facing narrative, one-page teaser, and supporting materials for investor questions or due diligence review. The exact scope depends on the stage of the business, funding amount, investor audience, and information available.
Do you prepare grant and funding program business plans?
Yes. We prepare grant-ready business plans and funding support documents for Canadian grant programs, contribution programs, nonprofit funding, Indigenous funding, community funding, and economic development applications. These plans usually focus on the applicant, project purpose, funding request, budget, use of funds, implementation plan, expected outcomes, and impact narrative.
When should I choose a feasibility study instead of a business plan?
A feasibility study is usually the better choice when you are trying to decide whether a project should move forward. This may include testing a new location, acquisition, expansion, real estate project, market entry, or major investment decision. A business plan explains how the business will operate and grow, while a feasibility study focuses more on whether the opportunity is viable, what risks exist, and whether the project makes sense before committing significant resources.
Can you help if I only need one document?
Yes. Not every project needs a full package. We can prepare a standalone bank loan business plan, investor business plan, pitch deck, financial model, grant business plan, feasibility study, landlord business plan, or other strategic document. If a broader package makes sense, we will explain why, but we can also quote a single deliverable when that is all the project requires.
How long does the process usually take?
Most document-based projects are completed within 7β10 business days after payment, questionnaire completion, and receipt of the required business and financial information. More complex feasibility studies, financial models, investor packages, or multi-document projects may require a custom timeline. Rush options may be available for time-sensitive funding, investor, lender, or landlord deadlines.
Do you provide editable files?
Yes. Most projects are delivered in both PDF and editable formats where applicable. Business plans and written reports are typically provided as editable documents and PDFs. Financial models are generally provided in Excel. Pitch decks are typically provided in editable presentation format and PDF. The final format may vary depending on the service selected.
