Cayenne Consulting expanded to Pittsburgh in 2007. Our local consultant, Rick Tifone, has lived in Pittsburgh for 40 years and has an MBA from the Katz Graduate School of Business. In the 90’s, he grew a tech startup from one employee to over 100 and was recognized in 1997 by the Pittsburgh Technology Council as “CEO of the fastest growing company in the $10M-$25M category.”
He has served scores of clients in industries ranging from manufacturing, to software and information technology, to real estate development, to medical devices.
Our Pittsburgh business plan consultant specializes in helping entrepreneurs and business owners in the following areas:
- Business plan development
- Financial forecast development
- Pitch deck (investor presentation) preparation
- Capital formation strategy
Our business plan consultant in Pittsburgh has earned glowing praise from clients:
Compared to other consultants, Cayenne’s process is easy to follow and develop. [Working with Cayenne was] easy, enjoyable, and accommodating. It was easy for our team to talk to Rick and he was always accommodating with our schedule. We feel that our return on investment was excellent.

Why Choose Cayenne? Nine Great Reasons!
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, Berkeley, Cornell, Columbia, Stanford, Yale, Dartmouth, and Chicago.
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.
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 render your plan unfundable. We wrote the original and often-cited article on Why Business Plans Don’t Get Funded.
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.
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?
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.
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!
No Salespeople
Deal directly with a 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.
