We give a fixed price in PLN after the first call, once the purpose of the round and the state of the data are clear. The first call is free and carries no obligation.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>How long does it take?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>A business plan for an investor usually takes 3 to 5 weeks including the financial model. The longest part is ordering the sales data and agreeing assumptions. Where a company already has clean reports and a model it can be faster.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>Do you help find the investor?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>We do not broker capital and we take no commission on a round. We are accountable for the business plan for an investor, the model and the preparation for meetings. We will say which type of capital fits the stage and the model of the company.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>Do you also prepare the pitch deck?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>Yes. The deck is the natural short form of a business plan for an investor and is usually built alongside it. What matters is that the deck, the plan and the model show the same numbers, because investors do compare them.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>How do you calculate the valuation?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>We show a range rather than one number, and we state the method: multiples from comparable transactions, discounted cash flows for a more mature company, and the approach from round size and acceptable dilution. The final valuation comes out of a negotiation, and the document exists to anchor it in data.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>How is this different from a document for a bank?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>A bank reads the conservative case, cash flow and security, because it wants its capital back with interest. An investor reads market, growth and valuation, because they are buying a share of the future. The same company needs two different documents. The bank's requirements are covered on the <a href=\"https:\/\/thenech.com\/en\/business-plan\/business-plan-for-a-loan\/\">business plan for a loan<\/a> page.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>How many years should the forecast cover?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>Three to five, with the first year broken down monthly. A longer horizon at an early stage is a work of fiction rather than a forecast, and experienced investors treat it that way.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>Is a document enough if the company has no revenue yet?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>Before first revenue the burden of proof shifts to the team, to evidence of demand and to the cost of testing the hypotheses. Such a document can be written, but we say plainly that the conversation then involves angels and the earliest stage funds rather than a classic seed round.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>Do you work with companies outside Warsaw?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>Yes. Our office is in Warsaw and we meet Mazovia clients in person, while working remotely with companies across Poland. Work on the financial model can be run entirely remotely.<\/p><\/div>\n          <\/details>\n          <details>\n            <summary>Which languages do you write in?<\/summary>\n            <div class=\"faq-a\"><p>English, Polish and Ukrainian. For foreign funds the English version is the primary one, with a Polish version produced for shareholders and the supervisory board.
