Business Plan Service

Vexo Accounting is a business plan service and business plan accountant working with businesses across the UK. We build a professional business plan for start-ups and established owners who need to raise finance, apply for a loan, or prepare a clear strategy.

Every business plan we write is put together by a qualified accountant, not just a professional business plan writer. That means the financial forecasts behind it hold up when an investor or lender asks questions about them.

If you own a business, or you're still shaping a business idea, we can help you turn it into a business plan that gives lenders and investors the confidence to say yes, and that's essential when applying for a loan or bringing in investors.

We Build Financial Business Plans That Hold Up When a Bank or Investor Asks Questions

A lot of business plan templates look good but fall apart under a few direct questions. Ours don't, because the person building your business plan understands tax, cash flow and how a lender reads a set of figures.

We work with sole traders, partnerships, limited companies and start-ups. Some clients come to us needing a business plan for their own business for the first time. Others have written many business plans before and just need this one done properly. We work with start-ups and established businesses alike.

What a Professional Business Plan From Vexo Accounting Actually Includes

Every business plan we create is different, but most include the same main points:

  • An executive summary that sets out your business proposition and unique selling points in a few clear paragraphs
  • Market analysis and market research covering your customers, competitors and industry
  • Financial forecasts, including revenue projections, a profit and loss forecast, cash flow forecast, balance sheet projections and a sales forecast
  • A staffing plan and start-up costs, so a lender can see how the business grows
  • Clear business goals and a clear strategy for how the business plans to achieve them

Some clients also want a pitch deck alongside the written document, which we can create once the plan is finished.

Why an Accountant Should Write Your Financial Business Plan, Not Just a Copywriter

Plenty of writers can put together a business plan template and fill in the gaps. Fewer of them can build a cash flow forecast that accounts for VAT, PAYE and Corporation Tax, or identify where a plan's assumptions don't add up.

We build every forecast from your actual figures where they exist, and from researched assumptions where they don't. Investors expect detailed and credible financial forecasts within a business plan, and a plan without that detail rarely delivers the result you need. This is one of our core services, not an afterthought, so we treat accurate financial forecasts as essential and stress test the figures so they remain viable under real questioning. There's a dedicated team behind every plan we write, bringing accounting skills that give your numbers credibility, and we deliver a plan you can put to work rather than paperwork that sits in a drawer.

Our focus stays on the numbers that matter to lenders and investors, and we bring the resources of our accounting team to every business plan we write.

What Goes Into the Market Research, Marketing and Sales Sections of Your Business Plan

What Goes Into the Market Research, Marketing and Sales Sections of Your Business Plan

A business plan is only as strong as the research behind it, so like most professional services, we spend real time on it before we write a single figure.

Market Research and Industry Analysis

We look at your industry, your competitors and your customers, and identify what makes your business a strong prospect in that market. We can point to case studies or examples to support your assumptions. For example, the figures a lender wants to see differ from what an investor expects.

Marketing, Sales Forecasts and Pricing

Your business plan also needs a marketing and sales strategy that lenders find believable. We help you prepare a sales forecast, set out how you plan to reach your customers, and work out a viable price that protects your margin rather than covering your costs.

We also help you outline how you'll track progress against that plan once the business launches, so the marketing and sales sections aren't just theory. A marketing strategy without figures rarely convinces a lender, and marketing spend only pays off if it's backed by the right forecast, so we build your marketing plan into the business plan itself.

Turn Your Business Idea Into a Funding-Ready Plan

Let Vexo Accounting create a professional business plan with clear financial forecasts, market insight and a strategy designed to support funding, investment and future growth.

The UK Has Almost 6 Million Private Sector Businesses, and Most Started With a Plan

At the start of 2025, there were around 5.7 million private sector businesses in the UK, growing by roughly 191,000, about 3.5%, over the year. Almost 314,000 new businesses were created during 2025 alone.

Around 99.85% of these are small and medium-sized businesses, and about three out of four have no employees other than the owners. A clear business plan often separates an idea from something a lender or investor will fund. Many start-ups underestimate how much detail a lender expects.

Around 86% of UK businesses reported handling digitised data in 2025 to 2026, which helps us prepare forecasts that reflect how your company operates, not a generic template.

How We Prepare Your Business Plan From the First Call to the Finished Document

How We Prepare Your Business Plan From the First Call to the Finished Document

We keep the process simple and don't take up more of your time than we need to.

First, we discuss your business, your business idea, and what the plan needs to do, whether for a lender, potential investors, or your own use. Then we gather the details, research your market, and start the financial forecasts.

After that, we draft the full plan as a finished document and send it over for review, with room to identify anything you want changed. We confirm the pricing details at this stage too. Once you're happy with it, we deliver the finished business plan and stay available if a lender or investor has questions.

If you need your business plan quickly, tell us your timeline when you get in touch, and we'll let you know what's realistic before you launch your funding application.

How Much Does a Business Plan Service Cost in the UK?

The cost of a business plan service in the UK varies a lot depending on how detailed the plan needs to be. A basic business plan template can start from around £150 to £300, though these rarely involve an accountant checking the figures. We write every plan from scratch, not from a shared template.

A professional business plan with full financial forecasts typically costs between £750 and £3,500, and more complex plans involving multi-year forecasting, investor readiness work or visa applications can reach £5,000 or more. Compared to broader consultancy services, a standalone business plan service is one of the more affordable ways to get investor-ready numbers, and getting the finance in place shouldn't cost more than it needs to.

Most small businesses budget somewhere in the £1,000 to £2,500 range for a complete business plan. The price is a rough guide, and the actual cost varies, so we always confirm a fixed price after a short conversation about what your business plan needs to cover. That means you can plan for the future with more certainty.

We Help Businesses Raise Finance, Secure Investment and Get Ready for Funding

We Help Businesses Raise Finance, Secure Investment and Get Ready for Funding

Around half of smaller UK businesses were seeking funding in 2025, but only about 35% said they were happy to use external finance to grow. That gap usually comes down to confidence, and a well-built business plan gives an owner the case they need for a lender or investor.

How We Help With Bank Loans and Working Capital

We prepare the financial forecasts and detail that a bank wants to see, including the budgets and start-up costs behind your figures. This sits alongside our other accounting services, so your figures tell one consistent story.

How We Help When You're Raising Money From Investors With a Pitch Deck

For businesses raising money from investors, we build a plan that explains your market analysis and how it plans to reach profit, alongside a pitch deck if needed.

How We Support Start-Up Schemes Such as The King's Trust

Some younger business owners raise money through schemes such as The King's Trust, which also expects a proper business plan. Start-ups applying through The King's Trust or similar schemes need the same financial detail as any funding application, and we build plans that meet what funders want. We help you meet your objectives without missing the details a funder will check first.

Get in touch, and we'll discuss what funders expect to see and how we can support your application.

Need Help With Your Accounts or Tax?

Our team can provide straightforward advice and tailored support to help you stay organised, compliant and confident about your finances.

A Good Business Plan Keeps Working for You After the Funding Is Sorted

A business plan shouldn't sit in a drawer once the loan is approved or the investment lands. We build ours so they can be updated as your business grows and tracked against the forecast, so you can measure success against real numbers.

That includes checking whether the business remains financially sound, with scenario planning for a base case, best case, and worst case, covering lower sales or rising costs. A plan built this way keeps working for the future of your business, not just the next funding round, so you can plan for growth with the same numbers. The plan becomes one of your ongoing business resources, not just paperwork for the bank.

We also help with:

  • Monthly management information comparing actual results against your business plan
  • Decisions on company structure, such as whether a sole trader or limited company set up suits your tax position better
  • Pricing and profit analysis so you know which products, services or customers are actually successful

Corporation Tax, VAT and how you take money out of the company through salary and dividends all affect the assumptions in your plan, so we plan for them from the start.
