Writing of business plans for businesses primarily in the software industry, but with experience across a broad range of other industries. The business plans I write are intended for actual use in the organisations for which they are written, not simply to satisfy shareholders, financiers and other investors that a business plan exists. I have at times taken equity in lieu of payment, particularly where a business recovery is required. (Depending on the skill level required, I am able to bring in more junior researchers at lower rates which will affect the overall hourly rates / total cost of the assignment.)
