Too Busy to Develop Your Business Plan, Pitch Deck, and Financial Forecast?
Hire the Best Business Plan Consultant to Help!


Why Choose Cayenne? Nine Great Reasons!
Get Investors To Notice

Get Investors to Notice

Most entrepreneurs can’t get investors to return their calls. A majority of our clients secure meetings with potential funders. Our team’s efforts have contributed to over $4.3 billion in financing!

Checkmark Icon

Get it Right the First Time

Funding is a binary event: either you succeed or you fail. If you fail, most investors won’t give you a second chance. Learn about the pros and cons of various approaches to developing business plans.

Salesperson Icon

No Salespeople

Deal directly with your senior business plan consultant from Day One – not a commissioned salesperson who will hand you off to a junior writer. Personal relationships matter, and you need to know exactly who you’re dealing with.

Drafting Icon

Fully Customized

Some business plan writers charge extremely low fees because they have a cookie-cutter, assembly-line approach. You get what you pay for. We work from scratch to represent your unique vision, not somebody else’s.

Avoid Costly Mistakes

We know what works, and, more importantly, what doesn’t. A single mistake can get render your plan unfundable. We wrote the original and often-cited article on Why Business Plans Don’t Get Funded.

Work With True Experts

We’ve walked in your shoes and we understand what you’re going through. Many of us have advanced degrees from institutions like Harvard, Wharton, CalTech, Cornell, Columbia, Stanford, Yale, Dartmouth, MIT, and Chicago.

Save Money - Really!

We’re not cheap, but about half of our clients came to us after a business plan prepared by a less qualified business plan consultant did not work out. Why not get it right the first time and save money?

Develop a Winning Strategy

Most so-called “business plan consultants” take whatever you tell them and type it into software. We go much deeper and help develop a viable strategy for success, which we then express in a compelling business plan.

Ongoing Support

We don’t stop when the business plan is complete. We have a talented team ready to help you implement it as well, either on a retained basis as interim members of your founding team or on a project basis, as needed.

How Can We Help You?

Business Plans

Our team offers plan preparation & writing services for any purpose and in any industry:

Business Plan Consulting
Pitch Deck Consulting

Pitch Decks

The key to generating interest and then closing a deal is a compelling pitch deck.

Whether you’re pitching friends and family, a pitch competition, an angel group, or venture capitalists on Sand Hill Road, we can help you get the job done.

Financial Forecasts

A financial forecast is like a business plan expressed in numbers.

It should tell a compelling story built on a foundation of defensible assumptions and clear cause-and-effect relationships.

The three main components – the income statement, cash flow statement, and balance sheet – work together to describe the state of the business at various points in time and how it will get there.

Financial forecasting can be one of the more challenging aspects of a business plan.

What Do Our Clients Say?

Aaron at Cayenne had my best interest from start to finish. He took the time to understand my business, identify the problem areas and make specific recommendations on both the operations and finances. They provided us a solid assessment of our business and a turnaround plan to restructure the company. He also worked with us to refer a new financing source to help recapitalize the business and get us back on the right track.

The materials that Cayenne created for us enabled us to ultimately close several large rounds of financing and reach where we are today.

Dr. Marvin J. Slepian, MD - Co-Founder & ChairmanSynCardia Systems, LLC - Artificial Heart Systems

Cayenne’s financial model was a critical tool in our fundraising process. It helped us understand the financial management and operational challenges we would face as a start-up. At the same time, it allowed us to communicate to our investors that we clearly understood those challenges and had thought them through. We are very pleased with Cayenne’s services.

Jennifer showed her quick adaptation and the ability to facilitate and assist in defining our product offerings… Calls and emails were returned immediately. The ability to meet our timeline while demonstrating flexibility with our changing needs is a real testament to your staff… We were thoroughly pleased with all components of this collaborative effort. The highly polished plan allowed us to fast track our financing…

Tony Curlo - CEOInnovate, Inc. - Personal Emergency Response System

Cayenne helped our company craft an incredible business plan and pro-forma financials. I consider [the consultant] to be the very best all-round business planning specialist I’ve had the pleasure of working with in my ten years as a business owner. I have recommended him to other CEOs growing their businesses.

Dr. Stephen Buchmann - Founder & CEOMorpho, Inc. - Pattern Recognition Platform Software

We were amazed by how little effort was required on our part to have Cayenne prepare these materials. We exchanged a few phone calls and e-mails, and they handled the rest. The results were clear, professional, and persuasive, and the investors and advisors who have seen the materials loved them. They know what investors want, and they delivered.

Cayenne took the time to understand the business and what we were trying to do, and created a fantastic business plan that was versatile to use for a number of different purposes. Cayenne is the company I’m calling when I need a business consultant. Three years after Cayenne completed a brand new, thorough business plan for DigitGlobal, the Board of Directors is still basing key decisions off of it.

Omar G. Jorge - Chief Operating OfficerDigitGlobal - Telecommunications in Latin America

I see five to ten business plans a week. Frankly, most aren’t ready for the big leagues. Cayenne’s work, on the other hand, is consistently excellent. They figured out the formula. They make it easy for investors to quickly see the value in a company. Now that startup activity is picking up, investors have more to choose from. It’s more important than ever for a business plan to make the right first impression.
