> I've been approached by some investors who want to invest in my startup. They've asked me to put together a business plan - listing costs/revenue etc.
Are said investors paying enough for what they want? Or, would you be better off doing something else?
I'm assuming that you have enough of a plan to run your biz and enough accounting to know what's happened in the past.
If that information is not what they want (and "not what they want" includes "we need it in a different format") or they don't understand what you've got (assuming that you're willing to share a redacted version), why do you want them as investors?
