Business Planning for B2B Firms

You are here: Home / Business Planning for B2B Firms

If you’re starting a new business, expanding an existing business, or if you’re looking for financing, you need a solid business plan. With our experience in business planning consulting we can provide advice and guide you through the entire process of developing a great business plan.

Business Planning for B2B Firms

Even if you’re not looking for external funding, a good business plan can make all the difference. It is your playbook for making the business successful.

Developing a compelling business plan is not a trivial matter. Of course, you want the final document to make a good first impression. However, don’t get too focused on the ‘form’ at the risk of neglecting ‘substance’.
Evaluate your business idea with a Feasibility Analysis
It is the content of your business plan that demonstrates your insight and understanding of the business and what it’s going to take to achieve success.

Most of your effort should go into the “planning” activity itself: which customers to serve, what to sell, how to attract customers, how to beat the competition, and how to become profitable. In short, the business plan needs to show how you’re going to make money. You’ll need to work on every facet of the business, you can’t leave anything to chance.

Why You Need a Business Plan

A good business plan helps you to:

  • Define the purpose of the business
  • Communicate the opportunity
  • Define the organizational structure
  • Present financial forecasts
  • Identify the pitfalls
  • Get funding

We specialize in business plan development for B2B firms. We guide entrepreneurs through the process by asking challenging questions, acting as a sounding board for ideas, and keeping the process grounded in reality. Developing a business plan involves making decisions about many aspects of the business venture, such as:

  • How are we going to make money?
  • Which markets to target, and why?
  • What are we selling and how?
  • How to attract and retain customers?
  • How do we stand out?
  • What prices to charge?
  • Sales forecasts
  • Pro-forma financial statements
  • How much capital is needed?
  • How to pay back investors?

Unless you have experience in business planning, it’s likely to take a lot of time and countless revisions to complete the business plan. You can save time and aggravation by working with a business planning consultant.

We’ll work with you on refining your business model, testing assumptions, conducting market research, and developing sales forecasts. As a result, you’ll have more confidence in your business and your chances of success.

We Help You Develop a Great Business Plan

We can provide complete support for the entire business planning process. From business planning coach and advisor to an integral member of your planning team, we are there when and where you need help.

Complete Business Planning Support

We provide advice and guidance throughout the entire planning process. In addition, we can become an integral part of your team, working on assignments, creating spreadsheets, etc. Finally, we’ll help you create the final document for presenting your idea to banks or investors.

Fresh, Independent Perspective

Get objective advice on the viability of your business concept, what needs to be improved, why and how. It’s not just about getting funded, but about creating a sustainable, profitable business.

Focus on B2B

We specialize in working with firms that operate in B2B markets. With experience across a broad range of B2B market sectors, we can help you create a compelling, carefully thought-out business plan.

Business Planning Coaching

We offer complete support for the entire business planning process. However, you may feel confident that you can take on most of the business planning yourself, perhaps with some advice along the way. In that case, we can serve as your Business Planning Coach. You can also take advantage of our support if you have already completed a major part of the business plan and just need help to finalizing it.

Business Plan Makeover

If your existing business plan did not get a positive response from investors or it needs to be updated, we can help. A Business Plan Makeover may involve a re-write, or it may take a comprehensive revision of the business model, go-to-market strategy, and financials.

Business Concept Feasibility Analysis

If you’re in the early stages of developing your idea or concept for launching a company firm, it may worthwhile to carry out a Feasibility Analysis first, before you start the formal business planning process.

The feasibility analysis provides quick insight into the viability of your business idea and may prevent you from putting a lot of time, effort, and money into something that’s not likely to be successful.


Working with an experienced business planning consultant speeds up the process and produces a better result.
