Andrew Ludlam – The Business Plan Writer

For over a decade I've been helping business owners to plan and grow. One of the UK’s leading business plan writers, I have worked with many hundreds of business owners from start-ups, sole traders, limited companies, through to large corporations.

My business plan writing service also extends to preparing business plans for MBOs, MBIs, supporting international entrepreneurs applying for start up and innovator visas – as well as to simply help you plot a plan for success. In addition, pitch decks and investor summaries can also be prepared.

To ensure your requirements are met with the highest degree of expertise, I have also forged strong links with a range of strategic partners, including top-ranking financial and legal specialists.

I provide a completely bespoke one-to-one business plan writing service, with a proven track record of helping entrepreneurs create business plans for investment, growth and acquisition. To date I would conservatively estimate I have raised over £175million in total for clients.

Why Choose Me?

Truth is and what really makes me qualified to help, is that I do not only write business plans for a living.

Whilst this takes up much of my time, I am a multiple business owner with over 14 years’ experience in helping business owners plot and implement a path for growth – ‘resetting’ their business and taking it from where it is now, to where they want it to be.

I’m also an advisor and non-executive director to 6 and 7-figure operations, and the author of the Amazon 5-star rated book "Maverick Marketing: Essential Business-Building Strategies for Extraordinary Business Growth".

My service doesn’t just stop at business plan writing. With multi-sector knowledge borne from many years spent growing companies, I can also help you develop a custom-fitted business growth strategy, providing clarity, focus and direction.

Just as importantly, you are guaranteed my complete attention – your business plan will not be delegated down to a team member. Similarly, I do not take the information you supply, and throw back a business plan after a few weeks. No outsourcing and no ‘off the shelf’ templates, ever.

Search online for business plan writers and you’ll be spoilt for choice: both good and, well, not so good. However, if you’re prepared to invest in the process, I believe I offer a uniquely bespoke and reliable business plan writing service.
