Funding-ready business plans for SEDA, NYDA, banks and investors.
South African funding bodies — SEDA, NYDA, IDC, NEF, the Department of Small Business Development and all major banks — require a written business plan as part of any application. The format matters: a plan written for a tech investor will get rejected by SEDA, and vice versa.
Amashad writes business plans in the exact format required for the funder you're targeting: SEDA template, NYDA template, bank lending format, or investor pitch format. Every plan includes a 3-year financial model.
60-minute call to understand your business, market and funder.
Delivered within 7 business days, including the financial model.
One round of revisions to align with funder feedback.
Optional add-on: we help you submit and follow up with the funder.
Most funding rejections aren't because the business is bad — they're because the plan doesn't speak the funder's language. SEDA evaluates plans on community impact and BBBEE; banks evaluate them on debt-service cover and collateral; VCs evaluate them on TAM and traction. Amashad calibrates each plan to the funder you're targeting.
Every plan we write includes a properly structured 3-year financial model built in Excel — not a one-page summary. Funders open the spreadsheet to stress-test your assumptions; a weak model sinks an otherwise strong application.
We can — submission support is an add-on. Most clients submit themselves once the plan is ready.
We build them with you, based on your actual sales pipeline, costs and pricing. They're realistic — not the inflated numbers that get plans rejected.
Yes — we keep up-to-date templates for SEDA, NYDA, IDC, NEF and all four major banks.
7 to 10 business days from kickoff. Rush turnaround is available.
