Smart Shoppers Always Compare...

You know there's always more than one way to do anything.

We don't claim to have the only way of raising money for your business or the only software for creating a business plan and financials- but we think that we are offering by far the Best Value.

For example, you can do all this yourself- which might seem to be free of cost- but the average time it takes most people to complete just the business plan at 10 hours per week is 3.5 months!

Even if you only value your time at $10 an hour (and most of us go considerably higher), that's over $1400 of effort!

And not everyone is good at writing, or doing balance sheets and income statements. Not to mention figuring out all the details that those things require, or knowing exactly how to take the plan and financials and put them together into a complete loan package your banker will drool over!

But we do know all those things, and that's what we are offering you- our expertise, all in one complete, easy to use package!

But for the sake of comparison, here are some of your other options to what we offer:

Business Plan Pro

  • Best selling bplan software, but not bar specific
  • No info on how to launch/run a profitable bar
  • 60 day money-back guarantee
  • Costs $95

Entrepreneur Magazine Bar/Tavern Guide

  • Book only, no bar specific plan/financials creation software
  • Last updated over 2 years ago
  • Still need funding package after you buy this!
  • Costs $69

Quick Plan Bar

  • Full Service 100 Seat Bar focused business plan
  • You have to customize/rewrite it to suit your situation
  • Costs $195
  • Money back guarantee- but only if you don't open the software!

Virtualrestaurant.com

  • Restaurant financials only
  • No business plan- only free outline on website
  • Not specific to bars
  • No stated guarantee
  • Costs $250

Hiring a Consultant/Business Plan writer

  • Can be excellent if you find a good one knowledgeable in bar operations/financials
  • Costs $3,000 and up!

At this point you may be asking- what's all this about "Bar specific"...



"Bar Specific" & Why You Should Care

You probably noticed we made a point of saying that most of the options above are not made only for bars. In fact, only one is especially for bars business plans, aside from us.

Why does it matter?

To create a loan package for a bar business, it makes sense to use a tool that was designed for just that purpose, and no other.

With the generic business plan software, you must do a lot of customizing, cutting things out and putting things in- and you may not know which is which. If you are new to bars, or just new to creating financials or writing business plans, chances are you will have a difficult time constructing a custom plan the way the bankers want it done.

With the Quickplan option, it is for bars- but what they give you is an already written plan for one specific bar. Then, you must go through line by line and rewrite it to fit what you are doing. This is as time consuming as writing from scratch, and it looks bad if you forget to take something out that doesn't fit- which is easy to do with 50+ pages to rewrite.

The plan you create using the Bar Success Kit software is only 12-15 pages long, and it will have exactly what a bar business plan- your bar business plan- should have in it- nothing more or less.

The plan you create will get funded because we know about bars and the bar business, and we pass that on to you every step of the way.

OK- so now where do we fit in on price you wonder...



And This is Going to Cost What?

Well, it's really got two prices.

Currently, the price for the entire contents listed above is just $97.00.

But, if you buy our kit, and you use it, and you don't raise any money, the whole thing is FREE.

You see, in that case, then we didn't really do our job, and therefore
we encourage you to return it to us and get your money back.

So basically, for under $100, and a few hours of your time, you get all the money you need to start your bar, fast and easy.

And how long is that promise good for you ask...




Our Guarantee to You

If you buy our kit, and put together a plan, and you can't, for whatever reason, raise any money with it, then send it back to us, and we'll give you a full refund- no hassles, no problem.

Try it for a week. Try it for a month.

Try it for up to one full YEAR!

Now, why would you need it for a year if it only takes 10 hours to use? Well, maybe it takes awhile to close the deal. Maybe the right location hasn't opened up yet. Maybe you're still just evaluating the idea of opening your own bar.

Sometimes these things just take time. That's why we give you a whole year. Just in case you need it.

But now you might be wondering...



Who Are We Anyway?

Glad you asked. The reason we can put together a program like this is because we've been there- for a long time! Our combined experience includes over 30 years in the restaurant, bars and small business world, and over 10 years consulting to startups and helping companies raise money.

Throw in some technical experience and software design ability, and you have the perfect combination of skills to develop the ultimate package for launching new business owners to success.

That is a long time- and a lot of reputation to stand on- which is why we won't put out anything less than a great product- and we don't want your money if you're not satisfied.

Can This Really Work for Me?

Here is what Mark Divine, one of the founders of a successful San Diego brewery pub and restaurant, had to say:

Mark's Restaurant

"I had a lot of work to do to get my microbrewery launched, including raising money from the SBA and several investors. Writing the business plan and creating solid financials were a huge part of that effort, and it certainly wasn't something I wanted to do all on my own."

Mark was very successful even though he had no previous restaurant or bar experience.



What Have Your Customers Been Saying?

So far, we've been hearing good things! Like John Gitre, from Santa Monica, CA, who told us:

"This program is great! The software is very easy to use, and everything truly is step-by-step. I spent over 2 months on my own working on a plan, and got no where.

With your Kit, I finished in two days! Now I am talking to lenders, and they seem to be liking what I have to show them. Thanks a million- when we open, you can come by any time!"
