    4. Writing: We then start drafting your business plan. This phase typically takes 7-10 business days, with expedited options available for faster delivery.

    5. Revisions: After submitting the first draft for your review, we revise the plan based on your feedback and suggestions.

    6. Delivery: Once the business plan is finalized and approved, it undergoes a final proofread before being delivered to you as the finished product.
