Business plan cost in Canada: our starting prices Draft
Every price on this page is a starting price in Canadian dollars, before tax. Work can cost more than the starting price when a business is more complex than the simplest case. We would rather tell you what drives the number than hide it.
Your first consultation, booked online, is free for now. After it we give you a quote before any work begins.
What changes the price of a business plan
- The purpose. A plan for an immigration program must satisfy that program’s published requirements and an officer. A plan for a bank or investor has a different reader and different tests. Each has its own starting price.
- The program. A BC PNP Base or Regional plan, an Alberta or Nova Scotia plan and a work-permit plan do not ask for the same things.
- New business or existing business. Buying a business adds work: reading its financial statements, checking the valuation and planning how you will run or expand it.
- The business itself. A single-location service business is simpler than a manufacturer with equipment, suppliers and regulation. More products, more locations and more staff mean more research and a larger financial model.
- Research depth. Some businesses need a full market study. Some can be planned from existing data.
- Material you already have. A good draft, a business concept or supplier quotes can reduce the work. Starting from nothing increases it.
- Language and interpreters. If you need interpreter support, for example during interview preparation, the interpreter’s cost is added.
- Add-ons. Interview preparation, a pitch deck or a market study can be added to a plan.
