The SBA-ready plan webinar was the first time someone walked through exactly what a loan officer flips to first. I spent three hours editing the next day and the plan looked like a different document.

What you'll walk away with
Sixty minutes, three clear takeaways you can use on your own draft the next morning.
A clear test for what 'good' looks like
Know what the four real readers (banker, investor, partner, future-you) actually look for, and how long each one spends with the doc.
A working AI workflow
Which sections to draft with AI, which to write yourself, and how to keep one consistent voice across the whole document.
The three sections AI gets wrong
Market analysis, operations, and financial assumptions. What a real reader expects to see, and what AI usually gives them instead.

The moment every founder is in

Who reads your plan, and what 'gets used' means
10 minFour audiences, four reading patterns, and why a 25-page plan beats a 60-page plan for every one of them.
- 3
The 7 sections, and where AI earns its keep
15 minA quick pass through every section a plan needs, and where AI saves you three hours per draft. Tools worth knowing: Upmetrics AI, ChatGPT, Claude.
