Hi , 

 

We've been helping filmmakers raise their film financing for over 20 years. One way we do this is by providing a variety of ways for filmmakers to write their Film Business Plans. The different ways have a wide range in terms of budget, time and level of expertise backing. By working directly with filmmakers, we've learned some love the business and money side of the industry, and others, not so much. This is why we've crafted different approaches based on a time/value/skillset formula to suit every type of filmmaker. 

 

If you want to impress your investors in the most professional way, our Platinum Plus package is for you. You'll be bringing in the combined expertise of Nash Info Services (the movie data gurus behind the-numbers.com) and FilmProposals, as well as entertainment attorneys and prior successful filmmakers. You will also have your plan done in less than two weeks. NIS will be running your 20 Comparable Films (much more impressive than 10 films, since you get to choose from 20,000+ films), while FilmProposals has done all the heavy lifting in our Business Plan Template - the industry (including the latest streaming & festival deals, award winners and industry stats), the market, and the financial (how the film business works and how a movie earns money) section. 

 

You simply write up your management bios, your target audience and your distribution plan. There is also the option outsource your Marketing Plan, with our Business Plan Sections - Done For You, but we have already given you the roadmap on exactly how to approach your Marketing and Distribution Plan using an analytical and proven approach.  You'll have a Film Investor Agreement, a real PPM (private placement memorandum), most of the legal docs that prove you're ready to maintain your Chain of Title and a Pitch Deck template. This is our most impressive package, we have seen it work time and again, and is best for those with a high end, professional mindset targeting the same with their investors. 

 

You can scale the Platinum Plus back to our Gold Toolkit + Financials Bundle - you get a lot of the above. Key differences are 10 Comparable Films, chosen from our scaled down database of 400+ indie films, no PPM and the Legal Pack (Chain of Title) is an optional add-on. You'll still have the Business Plan Template, Film Investor Agreement and Pitch Deck Template. This package has helped dozens of filmmakers secure investors over the years and is a solid option for those with a lighter budget. A higher time investment on your end, a bit less expertise behind you, but a lower financial investment. 

 

The Gold Toolkit is best for those who want to really dive in to the film business and do the heavy lifting themselves. You still get a ton of Filmproposals expertise and templates, but you'll get into the nitty gritty of financial projections, comparable films, marketing plan, distribution plan and finding film investors. Just like our other bundles and toolkits, filmmakers have raised millions of dollars of film funding with this package. 

 

 

When selling your film as an investment, you need something to prove your concept, right? 

 

Some type of information, study or analysis that shows you have an audience AND that your audience pays to see your film - regardless of the distribution method. So how do you go about doing this? 

 

There are dozens of studies and reports out there that analyze, for example: 

and much more. 

 

We add some of the basics into our standard business plan template and some of these very reports are included as free bonuses with our financing toolkits and bundles. 

 

But for the ultimate Marketing Plan sections, customization is key, which is why we offer our Business Plan Sections - Done For You. We are constantly customizing these sections for our customers and we improve upon them each time. For example, we just completed 4  BIPOC talent-based movies Marketing Plans this year alone.  And YES, they deliver at the Box Office!!!!!!!

BEST BUSINESS PLAN. I ordered the gold package and it has been a great tool to help secure investors. The review was a great option because it helped me fine tune my business film proposal to be its best. I would highly recommend this package. It's a small investment to secure a huge investor.

 

I bought the  Movie Financing Toolkit and it was more than expected. I haven't actually started on my filmmaker business plan, but going through all the tools there more than enough tools to build strong and impressive business plan. The template is not the normal run of the mill, but its designed where all you need to do it edit and tailor to your individual plan. There are a lot of other good things in the package to make a successful business plan: Financial PROJECTION, COMPARABLE MARKET DATA, INVESTOR INFORMATION, SAMPLE PITCH LETTER AND SO MUCH MORE. I have paid for templates before, but they were so hard to work, so I sought out the FilmProposals Toolkit, and found it to be everything they said it would be!

As a independent filmmaker I've been working hard in getting this information from the WWW. I could only afford the bronze package at this time but I have found it invaluable. The business plan, manual and spreadsheet has save me so many man hours and I know I will be using them time and again. Thanks for your product and when I can I'll certainly upgrade to gold which I am sure will be just as good.

"Finished my deck on Friday. Got it into a few potential investor’s hands over the weekend, and by Monday had 3 out of the 10 available memberships spoken for at $160K each. The revenue projections and film comparable services by NASH, along with the business plan and pitch deck templates were instrumental in presenting the project in such a way that financially minded potential investors could understand the movie business, the market and how my project could possibly give them a substantial ROI."
