Frequently Asked Questions.
What is business financial planning for a startup?
It’s a structured framework of models and processes that lets founders manage runway and communicate with investors, instead of making reactive decisions under pressure. At Accu Financials, we build that for founders and business owners from the earliest stage of the business.
What should a startup financial plan include?
It should include a five year financial model with revenue, expense, and headcount projections, and burn rate, runway, and unit economics analysis for investor presentations. It should also include bottom up revenue forecasting with pricing sensitivity analysis, a financial planning process for moving beyond founder led finance, and fundraising support covering the data room and pitch deck financials.
How do you build a financial plan for a startup?
There are three steps. In business discovery, we learn your business model, revenue streams, and cost structure so the assumptions are accurate. In model build and planning, we develop your financial model and planning framework with every assumption documented. In advisory and iteration, we review, update, and refine the model as your business evolves and your funding needs change.
Can you help me prepare for a funding round?
Yes. Our financial planning includes fundraising support: preparing the financial side of your data room and pitch deck, and building investor ready models. The goal is for you to enter investor conversations with assumptions that hold up under scrutiny.
Is financial planning the same as a business plan?
No. A business plan is the written document that tells your story to lenders or investors. Financial planning builds the model and framework behind it and keeps it updated as the business changes. They work best together, and the two services are designed to fit.
How much do startup financial planning services cost?
The cost depends on the scope you need, such as the complexity of your model, how many scenarios you need, and whether you want ongoing support through funding rounds. Reach out and we’ll scope a quote to your specific situation.
