About this service
We write a business plan for a local service business such as a cleaning company, beauty salon, barbershop, handyman or home care service. It focuses on what drives these businesses: how many clients or jobs per week you need, pricing per service, staff time and pay, equipment and supplies, repeat customers and local marketing. You get a plan you can take to a bank or a grant program, or use to check that your prices actually cover your costs.

Questions and answers
I am a sole trader. Do I need a full plan?
Often the Basic package is enough to check prices and capacity. Choose a larger plan if a bank or grant asks for one.
Can you suggest prices for my services?
We calculate the minimum price that covers your costs and compare it with local competitors' public prices, then you decide.
Where do the numbers come from?
Your own costs, prices and plans, plus market figures from open sources with links. We do not invent figures, and assumptions are labelled as such.
