Business Plan Writing Service
Expert Business Plan Writing & Consulting
As a former technology entrepreneur who has founded his own company, I have first-hand experience of creating business plans, initially for immigration purposes.
When I was 22 years old, as I had just completed my master’s degree, I embarked on the entrepreneurship journey. I started a property technology (PropTech) business called StudyFlats. Within 3 years, I grew the business to over 30+ UK cities and a team of four.
My work has also received recognition the UK Home Office and NatWest.
Thus, I am skilled in creating business plans for funding and other purposes, such as incubators.
Business Plan Services
Focus Areas
Writing a solid plan requires plenty of forethought. The key elements that I emphasise & build on during the consultation are thorough and practical.
The main purpose of any business is generating revenue. Hence, this should be your primary concern, in addition to identifying a viable market and problem/ solution.
Working with me ensures that you are on top of your game with your numbers and have an investor-ready and viable financial proposition.
Once your business model is established and a market is defined, the next step is your marketing strategy.
How will you enter your target market? What “shortcuts” are there to minimise your resource allocation for optimal outcomes?
This is a key part of my work as a consultant: to help you formulate a realistic marketing/sales plan.
What problem are you solving? Or, how are you improving an existing solution?
How well do you know your market? What are their struggles and habits? Do you have a through understanding of factors such as the market size and individual customer profiles?
These are some of the queries that my consulting will address and define.
You must have a unique selling proposition (USP) and/or means to defend your business concept. In other words, you must overcome existing market barriers and create them for new entrants.
We will work on identifying and articulating your USP and implement it in the business plan writing process.

It depends, and that is one of the benefits in using my help.
I have developed valuable connections in the startup/business/tech world throughout my career, and can refer founders to other professionals.
Due to high demand, I am currently only offering business plan reviews and evaluations. I am not taking on new writing projects at this time.
No, nor can any other individual or entity do so.
The success of visa applications are solely reliant on the host country’s Government and/or other authorised entities.
No. I am a business and commercial consultant. My work draws on my experience as a former tech entrepreneur who navigated the UK business immigration journey firsthand — from my first business visa through to ILR and British citizenship.
For immigration advice and visa applications, I can refer you to a suitably regulated adviser.
Several forms of financing and/or funding rounds.
My specialism is in the following areas:
- Loan applications (banks & other funders)
- Crowdfunding
- Pre-seed
Almost! (Seed funding which would have been in the region of £100k-500k).
By 2020, my former startup StudyFlats was operating across 30+ UK cities, and we had investors reaching out to us, prior to being forced to shut the entire operations down due to the 2020 Pandemic.
I have, however, managed six-figure budgets and have been accepted onto accelerators as well as dealing with both angel investors & VCs myself.
This is also what many other “business plan writers” and/or immigration advisors/lawyers do not offer: first-hand experience of getting grilled by VCs over the profit margins!
