Business planning for entrepreneurs

Are you a soon-to-be entrepreneur based in the Netherlands and looking for assistance in your journey to establish and develop your venture? Horizon Advisor can help you by preparing a business plan.

Need help writing your business plan? Horizon Advisor can help you out!

Writing a business plan

Svetlana Sonas, owner of Horizon Advisor, is specialised in writing business plans for starting and established entrepreneurs. A business plan is often needed by external parties for a variety of reasons, such as obtaining a business premise, bank loan, municipality permits, subsidies, franchise license, IND permit, or a governmental loan.

Intake meeting

Writing a business plan is often a big challenge for (starting) entrepreneurs. This is where Horizon Advisor comes in.

During your intake meeting, either face-to-face or via telephone, you will get the opportunity to discuss your business ideas and the purpose of your business plan. This approach is very personal, as the goal is to establish a long-lasting business relationship.

It is possible to set up a meeting at any location in the Netherlands.

Initiative

“I started Horizon Advisor as I got more and more requests from friends in my network who were starting all kinds of businesses, from coaching to artistic ventures and photography“, says Svetlana.

“When I started preparing business plans for new clients, they often became a part of my circle. This is a big motivation for me, as I get in touch with like-minded entrepreneurial people through my work. Also, it is difficult for non-Dutch speaking people to find their way in the Netherlands. Therefore, I am happy to be of service to the expat community.”

Taxes

As well as helping you with your business plan, Horizon Advisor can also assist you after your business launch by submitting tax declarations. The sales tax declarations have to be done four times a year. The process of submitting taxes is not very complicated, but it is, unfortunately, not very “expat-friendly”. Svetlana can assist you by offering the necessary translations and support.

Please note that all prices are available upon request and are based on the scope of the work.
