🎬💰 Done For YOU Comparable Analysis & Investor Payback Scenarios! 🎬💰

Published: Sun, 04/07/24

Hi ,

We love when we launch a new service or product and our filmmakers give us great feedback. This is the case with our Professional Comparable Films service, launched in 2020. Hundreds of filmmakers are completely changing the game of getting to investors quicker, with more confidence, accuracy and strong industry professionals backing them.

The price is going up in the next few weeks, for the first time since 2020, so we wanted to let you know about that. We have also just updated our database, which now includes over 470 films from which to choose. So you can choose 10 comps (just for FilmProposals clients) from our database or 20 comps (industry standard) + choice of NIS 20,0000+ films.

"Thank you again so much. In no small part because of you, your fine staff, Nash & Associates and your incredible body of templates and instructions I’ve been able to raise over $400,000 dollars so far for the film. I honestly don’t think I would have been able to raise a dime if not for the detailed and professional deck I was able to put together following your guidelines." - Michael

"Melissa, I was extremely hesitant in purchasing even your lowest priced package. It all sounded to good to be true. I spent 2 months last year writing a business plan from scratch for a different medium. So I just couldn't imagine getting anything worth while for the prices you were offering. But I have an investor that requested a detailed plan with financial projections within 2 weeks, so I pulled the trigger on your Gold + Financials Filmmaker Bundle.

It was the best money I've ever spent! Can't even begin to tell you what a difference it makes. So concise and on point. Makes putting the plan together so fluid and easy. Not having to worry about what to cover, only how to best state it for my film project. Amazing. Thank you so much. Worth every dollar! - Michael

We've always received feedback from our filmmakers letting us know how tedious the process of choosing comparable films to use to generate financial projections was. It was boring, time consuming and often involved paying for a subscription service, like IMDB Pro. Everyone hated it (including us)!

So, we took care of that by creating our very own proprietary database of indie films. Our DB is super affordable and can be purchased 2 ways:

As a stand alone product
Included with the Gold Financing Toolkit
Included with 4 of our Filmmaker Bundles.

For filmmakers who want to do their own financial and investor projections, we just eliminated at least 20 hours of the tedious work of finding comparable indie films to yours. The DB is a custom list of films (over 300 recent films) from the-numbers.com, the industry's most well-known movie statistics folks. Nash Info Services are the the gurus behind the-numbers.com.

The DB was so helpful, we then decided to partner with Nash Info Services to offer next-level financial projections where they do them FOR you. We negotiated a great rate with Nash because you do the work of choosing your films from our proprietary DB. This way, Nash gets a pre-chosen list of 10 films from you, they know they already have all the stats in their database (because you're already choosing from their list) and in less than 2 weeks you have uber-professional and branded financial projections.

Once again, you can purchase the projections separately or they can be included with one of our filmmakers bundles, which also includes our Business Plan Template, Investor Pitch Deck, Investor Agreement, the option of your PPM and much more. You can do 10 films for your comparable films (Basic) or really WOW your investors with 20 comp films (Plus Bundles) - which hedges the inherent risk in film investment, looks even more professional and lets you choose from over 20K films, not just those in our database.

The most valuable part of these Done-For-You comparable films reports is you have a third party doing them, which gives you TONS of street cred with your investors.

If you purchase our Gold + Financial Projections Filmmaker Bundle ($599), almost 80% of your Business Plan will already be done for you. It's literally fill-in-the-blanks after that - add your management bios, synopsis of your film, your distribution strategy and target market, and you are done. Anyone else would charge you $4K for this type of work. We offer it for $599 (or $999 if you also want to eliminate $10K in legal fees and use our PPM template). An additional 10 comp films can be added to any of our financial bundles.

Financial Projections FAQs:

1) Is this just for one set of comps, or is it a one or two year service where I could run for my multiple projects as many times as I want?

Answer: This is for 1 time comps on 1 film, using 10 films as comparison from our DB, similar to yours in terms of budget of genre. You choose the films from our list of over 300 films (or the-numbers full list of 20K films), we run the financial analysis and Investor ROI for you. This is a one-time use service and cannot be broken out into multiple services (ie, 10 comps for Film X and another 10 comps for Film Y).

2) Do you combine your movie sales/projections analysis with the PPM package?

Answer: Yes, everything we offer is included in our Platinum Filmmaker Bundle. It's a high ticket item, but about $20K cheaper than trying to do it all on your own.

3) What’s the difference between the Indie Film Database and Financial Projections?

Answer: The DB is a list of films with almost all their financial details. You can use it with our Financial Projections Template, allowing you to compare at least 3 comparable films to your film to do your own financial projections. This combo works great.

The Financial Projections service is done for you by professionals. It includes more detail, more accurate Investor ROI scenarios and has a third party (industry professional) endorsement on the outcomes.

There are two Sample Reports attached to this email. You can also view them here: https://courses.filmproposals.com/courses/revenue-projections/contents/5fb4081215ebc. These are the final products you will receive.

How it Works: If you purchase our Movie Sales Projection Package , we need 3 pieces of information from you:

Choose 10 films similar to yours from our database - OR - consult directly with Nash Info Services to choose 20 films from their database of over 20K films (PLUS bundles).
Your Production Budget as well as any Tax rebates and incentives.
Your Preferred Investor Return Rate - the default is 20% but you can change it. In the standard model, the investor will receive 100% of revenue until they have recovered 100% of their investment, plus the preferred return rate. For example, with an investment of $1,000,000 and a preferred return rate of 20%, the investor will receive all of the first $1,200,000 earned from the film by the production company (Investor Preferred Return). The default preferred return rate we use is 20%.

Nash Info Services then takes your information and returns the attached two reports to you. This shows you and your investors:

1) Your projected movie revenues

2) How you propose to pay back your investors

3) Low, Medium, High and Breakeven Scenarios

This is an essential piece of information you use to show your recoupment plan or distribution waterfall and it is a MUST in any business plan.

You can send these professionally formatted and branded reports to your investors and copy/paste them into your business plan.

Included in Our Financial Analysis Bundle

Investor Scenarios - Returns to investors based on high, medium and low scenarios. Includes Investor Preferred Return and Investor Participation Beyond Preferred Return.
Domestic & International Analysis - Potential revenue to the production company based on the performance of 10 comparable films domestically and internationally.
Comparable Films - Detailed financial information on comparison films used in the analysis.
Two Reports - One PDF report, professionally designed for Film Investor presentation. One editable Excel file with all formulas and assumptions.

You Can Skip Over the Excel Financial Template Completely (if you want)

Nash Info Services normally charges a lot more for these analyses because they spend the extra time working with filmmakers to select their individual movies (and we will likely start offering that service soon). If those movies are not already in their system, they have to research them from scratch.

However, since our filmmakers will already be working with the Indie Film Database, produced with data from the-numbers.com, we know Nash already has those films on file and we can heavily discount the services.

"Melissa, so far the Film Proposal Platinum package has been fantastic. For a first time producer, this toolkit has guided me on a great starting point and has really energized my writer/director into taking this move to get his film made very seriously. The legal document templates have already paid off by getting the option contract done without having to pay for an attorney review.

Looking forward to using the rest of the toolkit as we prepare our investor financials, budget, and sales projection documents. Using the toolkit, we are halfway done with our business plan, saving us months of work. Even though I've only used a small amount of the toolkit thus far it has already made a difference in getting this project up and running."

"I'm almost fully funded for my feature film this summer! The resources you and your team have provided were essential in getting this thing made. I could not have done this without you."

A Financing Masterclass For a Fraction of the Price! "Five Stars! I have a broad, basic understanding of film financing. I know most of the steps that need to be taken and I know the material that must be present within a film investor package. However, knowledge/theory of what needs to be done and practically executing it are two very different things. The Film Financing toolkit brings both of those worlds together, you get the theory of how a film investor package works along with the practical execution of the packet. At the price range, it is by far the most valuable resource I have come across on the internet. IF you are trying to produce an independent film, spend the money now to be prepared later - unpreparedness can be very costly later on. This should be your number one resource for financing your independent film." - Tyler

Top Notch Business Plan That Really Stands Out!

"Hi, My producing partner and myself had a budget, schedule and a proposal that we've been using with no luck. I was looking for a more professional way to present our film project to the investors we have contacted but haven't been able to get them to pull the trigger. This tool kit allowed for me to put together a top notch business plan that really stands out now. I am so pleased with it. At this writing, we have not secured our funding but that's only because we just finished the plan to compliment our budget package. It's easy to customize and tailor to your specific needs and I highly recommend it."
