BUSINESS PLANS FOR BANK LOANS

When approaching the bank for a business loan, the first thing they may request is your business plan and financial forecasts. The bank needs this to give them a detailed overview of who you are, what you do, what markets you serve and how you are going to compete in your industry.


Before lending, the bank needs to assess the risk associated with the loan, and therefore they need to determine your business's ability to repay them month by month. Your plan will need to include sales projections, trading accounts, cash flow forecasts and balance sheet projections.


It is imperative that you are prepared, with a detailed and professional business plan to hand. You may only get one chance to impress, and this is where we can help. We prepare neat, professional and concisely written business plans alongside meticulously prepared financial forecasts. Our goal is to help our customers put their best foot forward and give them the best possible chance of loan approval.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Thomas Cotter

Best Cover Insurance

Insurance Industry

The guys showed a genuine interest in what I needed to achieve from the moment we spoke. The personal service was second to none. Mark arranged a call to discuss the concept of the business and our targets. This was transferred into a format which was suitable for multiple audiences. Overall, a great service with excellent support.

Zuzana Hruzova
(Owner Operator)
Swimtastic Ireland

Leisure Industry

I’m not originally from Ireland, so I wasn’t very confident about my “Business English”. The team were fantastic in helping me prepare marketing, regulatory, and business planning materials. The plan has helped me through all the administration layers I have come across. The service was excellent value for money, and I would strongly recommend Irish Business Plans.

John Lavelle
(General Manager)
JTL Stores Ltd
Kildare, Meath & Antrim
Retail Sector

I needed to raise a seven-figure sum to purchase commercial properties. I required a detailed business plan and forecasts. Mark was extremely valuable in his ability to understand my business and translate this into a plan. A pleasure to work with and I strongly recommend them.
