Your Business Plan from  concept to complete — powered by AI, in one afternoon

Stop planning to plan. Walk out with the real thing.

You have a business idea. Maybe you've had it for a while. But somewhere between the vision and the paperwork, the business plan never gets done. The Business Plan Accelerator changes that — in just one afternoon.

Facilitated by Autumn Shirley, this hands-on workshop combines expert instruction with cutting-edge AI technology to guide you through the entire business planning process from start to finish. You won't just learn how to write a business plan — you'll actually create one, right here, right now.

What to Expect

60 Minutes of Guided Instruction Get a clear, structured walkthrough of the business planning process. You'll work through a focused set of intake questions designed to capture everything needed to build your plan — no guesswork, no complicated questions that will give the AI model the necessary information to do the heavy lifting.

2 Hours of AI-Powered Lab Time Put the framework into action. Using a high-level AI workflow developed, tested, and perfected by OzSBI for this purpose alone, your responses are transformed into a complete, professional business plan in real time — with expert support available every step of the way.

Leave with a Finished Business Plan Not a template. Not a worksheet. A complete business plan you can use to launch your venture, seek funding, or take your next step with confidence.

Who Should Attend

• Aspiring entrepreneurs ready to take their idea seriously
• New business owners who need a formal plan in order to pursue lending opportunities
• Existing business owners looking to document or revise their strategy

What to Bring

Just yourself and your business idea — we'll handle the rest.

Bring a laptop or tablet if you have one. If you don't, no worries — we'll provide one for you. No special software, accounts, or prior preparation required. Just show up ready to build.

If you do have a partial business plan, or any financial information (such as startup expenses, ongoing costs, projected revenue, or a cash flow projection), that's great - bring it along. If not, no problem.

Cost: $45 for OzSBI Members / $65 for non-members
