1 Hour Consult -OR- Simple Business Plan Review
Book an hour long call (same as the 30 minute call above) or get a Professional Business Plan Review. We provide written feedback on your plan and analyze it from an investor's perspective. We challenge and question your financials and distribution model, correct for grammar and typos, and most importantly, ensure you've already answered any and all questions an investor may have about how their money will be used and what their ROI will be.
Detailed Business Plan Review
This includes our Simple Business Plan Review, with an additional session of feedback. Our initial simple review, and then another review session after you've made initial changes. We can also schedule a call that will include Investor Preparation where we ask you the tough questions, especially the ones we've seen challenge filmmakers and lose an investor's interest on the spot.

What Our Customers Say
"Film Proposals was the best investment! When I presented my project to my investor, they were blown away how prepared I was and rarely see filmmakers have half the documents I supplied. It showed that I was serious as a filmmaker and as a business person. I purchased the Gold package with the PPM. The PPM took all the heavy lifting off and saved me so much money that would of cost me thousands from an attorney. The package got me prepared from business plan to financials. I did my research on my film and similar films and just plugged in the info. I had everything prepared and professionally done. On top of that, they offered a review after I followed the steps they gave me. " - Angelo, September 2020
"We recently purchased your film proposal program and we have found it to be one of the best investments we've done for our company. We want to proceed with the business plan review and gather your feed back! " - J, L & V, Producers

"Just want to thank you for your materials and help over the past year. I could not have raised the $1.5 million or made this film without the materials you provided. The bargain of my career!"
"The resultant projections are what I needed, and the early feedback from the "suits" in this project is that I've presented a clear yet compact overview of the prospects. They were also surprised it could be presented so concisely and without a complex MBA-style model."

I truly recommend this material for any indie film maker."
