You will need a Business Plan Coach if you own a business plan or other pitch / founding documentation and presentation materials (for example, Pitch Deck or Financial Plan, but also “One Pager” or Business Model Canvas / Javelin Board etc.) from a professional Business Coach either jointly conceived or would like to have commented / revised. Even if you are only in the preparatory phase and want to utilize business plan coaching as a preparatory measure for your discussions with other consultants or mentors, we can help you with BrainHive Coaching.
The big difference between the business plan coach and a regular business plan consultant is that the business plan coach will help you, above all, to improve the quality of your business plan. In particular, if the entrepreneurial activity for which your pitch documentation was created is a particularly complex or financially strong operation, you should especially ensure that your documentation does not contain any errors or passages that can still be improved upon. In such cases of great importance, the business plan coach, who has usually been reviewing and evaluating these documents regularly for many years, comes in very handy.
If you are concerned about the cost of a professional business coach, it may be advisable to first consult a qualified third party, which would undertake the business plan revision for a smaller fee of for free. Only when the quality is at a point where such business plan consulting no longer leads to an improvable result, the time of a true business plan coach should really be worth their money to clarify the final conclusions and comprehension questions. The business plan coach is priced otherwise in the same price category as the normal business coach and usually earns between 600 to 800 € daily fee.
