  • “Business plan for food truck loan from a credit union”

    I need help writing a business plan for my food truck so I can apply for an equipment loan at my credit union in Austin. I've run a pop-up tamale stand at farmers markets for two years and have real sales numbers, but the loan officer asked for a full plan with financial projections, and writing isn't my strength.

    What I'd like: build the plan with me from my notes and sales records, covering concept, market and locations, operations, the permits I still need, staffing, and three-year projections with the loan payment included. A Word doc plus a one-page summary. Two video calls to interview me and review drafts. I'll make every decision on pricing and numbers.

  • “Help me write a business plan for a small business grant”

    I'd like a coach to help me write a business plan for a grant for my mobile bike repair service in Minneapolis. A local small business grant program asks for a plan, a budget for how the money will be used, and how the business creates local impact. I have a rough draft, but it reads like a diary.

    What I want: two or three video sessions where you help me restructure and tighten my own draft, build the use-of-funds budget table, and make the impact section concrete. I'll do the writing between sessions; you edit and push back. Please mention grant applications you've helped with, without promising outcomes.

    $300
    • 2–3 coaching and editing sessions
    • Edited plan with a tightened impact section
    • Use-of-funds budget table

  • “Pitch deck rework for a pre-seed B2B SaaS raise”

    I need a pitch deck rework for our pre-seed raise. We're a B2B SaaS that automates freight invoice audits for mid-size shippers. We have 6 paying pilots and about $8K in MRR, but our current 22-slide deck buries the traction on slide 15, and angels keep asking the same three questions.

    What I want: restructure the story to 12–14 slides, tighten the problem, traction and market slides, redo the charts, and apply a clean, consistent design in Google Slides. One kickoff call and one review call. I'll supply all numbers and claims; please don't add any I can't back up. Share examples of decks you've worked on.

    $550
    • Restructured 12–14 slide deck in Google Slides

  • “Business plan for coffee shop lease talks with a landlord”

    I need a short business plan for a coffee shop to give a landlord who won't sign a lease without one. I'm a barista with ten years' experience in Portland, Oregon, and I've found a corner unit near a college campus. The landlord wants to see the concept, my experience, the startup budget and how I'll cover rent in the first year.

    What I'd like: a 10–12 page plan and a one-page summary, built from my notes and two video interviews, with a simple first-year cash flow showing rent coverage. I'll provide the menu, prices and equipment quotes. I'm not asking for help negotiating the lease; I just need the document.

    $350
    • 10–12 page business plan
    • One-page summary for the landlord
    • First-year cash flow showing rent coverage

    For: Experienced barista opening a first coffee shop

  • “Coach me through how to write a business plan for a startup”

    I want someone to coach me through how to write a business plan for a startup, step by step. I need it before I decide whether to leave nursing. The idea is a shift-scheduling app for small home-care agencies in North Carolina. I've talked to 15 agency owners and have notes, but no business background.

    What I'd like: four 60-minute video sessions over a month. We work through customer, problem, pricing, go-to-market, costs and a simple 18-month runway sheet; I write each section between sessions and you review it. At the end I want a plan I understand and can defend, in my own words. Tell me how you'd run the sessions.

    $400
    • Four 60-minute coaching sessions

Good questions

What people ask before they post this in the US.

  • 01

    How much does business plan and pitch deck cost in the US?

    Usually $100–600. Each Tasker names their own price in their offer, so you see the cost before you agree to anything.

  • 02

    What do lenders usually look for in a food truck business plan?

    Evidence of demand such as past sales, realistic startup and operating costs, permits and commissary arrangements, an owner contribution, and projections showing the loan payment can be covered.

  • 03

    What should I gather before starting the plan?

    Sales records from markets or events, quotes for the truck and equipment, commissary and permit costs, a sample menu with prices and ingredient costs, and how much of your own money is going in.

  • 04

    How is a grant business plan different from a loan plan?

    Grant reviewers focus on how the money is used and the impact on the community, not on repayment. A clear use-of-funds table and measurable outcomes matter more than long projections.

  • 05

    What should I share before the first session?

    Your current draft, the grant's guidelines and scoring criteria, a rough budget, and numbers you already know, such as customers served or monthly revenue.

  • 06

    How many slides should a pre-seed pitch deck have?

    Many pre-seed decks land between 10 and 15 slides: problem, solution, product, traction, market, business model, competition, team and the ask. Put your strongest proof early.

  • 07

    How does paying work?

    Posting is free. When you accept an offer you pay the agreed price. Your money is held by Taskly until you confirm the task is done. If you don’t, it’s released three days after your Tasker marks it finished — unless you report a problem.

  • 08

    Who are the Taskers?

    People who have done what you need: worked at the company, passed the exam, made the move. Every Tasker is reviewed and approved by a person before they work.

  • 09

    What can’t a Tasker do here?

    Taskers help you prepare and understand. You file from your own account; nobody on Taskly represents you to a tax authority.
