We use these answers only to prepare your document. Payment is handled securely by PayFast.
After payment we ask 9 short questions about your business so we can write it. You can save and finish that later.
Frequently asked questions
- What is included in this bundle?
- Five services: an idea validation report covering per-town viability, competitor density and startup costs; a nine-section funder-ready business plan; CIPC company registration; a licence and permit walkthrough for your business type and province; and a funding application pack prepared for SEFA, NEF, or a bank.
- Do I have to fill in a separate form for each service?
- No. You answer one set of questions covering everything the bundle needs, with duplicates removed, so you never give us the same detail twice. You pay once, and each service in the bundle is then started off that single submission.
- What if one part of the bundle is not available?
- A bundle can only be bought when every service inside it can be delivered. If any one of them is unavailable the whole bundle is withdrawn from sale rather than sold short, so you never pay for something we cannot complete.
- What licences will I need, and are they included?
- Businesses that sell, prepare, or handle food generally need a municipal trading licence under the Business Act 71 of 1991, plus a Certificate of Acceptability from the municipality's environmental health department confirming the premises meet food hygiene standards. The bundle includes a walkthrough of exactly what applies to you in your province and how to apply. It is guidance and assistance: we do not submit the applications for you, and licence scope varies by province and local authority.
- Does each service keep its own terms?
- Yes. Every service in the bundle keeps its own disclaimer and its own limits, which are set out on that service's own page. Buying them together changes the price and the intake, not the terms.
