San Diego, CA – December 11, 2010 – RestaurantFunds.com, a division of CapForge Software, reported reaching its ten thousandth customer this past week. Started in mid 2002 as an offshoot of an in-house consulting tool, the restaurant business plan package has enabled aspiring restaurant owners to develop their business plans and financial projections to raise the money required to start a restaurant without having previous industry experience or any accounting background.
The Restaurant Success Kit package as it is called includes tools for creating a business plan, five year financial projections and a slide-show presentation as well as a two hundred plus page ebook on how to run a profitable restaurant and many other related guides and information resources. The software is sold exclusively online through the website as a download.
“We are proud of this accomplishment and proud of our product,” said CapForge CEO Matt Remuzzi, co-creator of the product and long time business consultant. “We spent a lot of time working on this package so that not only would it be super easy to use but it would also deliver a solid plan and very realistic numbers that are going to be in line with industry expectations.”
Remuzzi also stated that they offer unlimited support with the product and the support is provided by business consultants familiar with the industry and getting businesses capitalized not just low level customer service or tech support workers. He attributes that support plus the one year refund guarantee as a big part of what makes customers comfortable ordering online from his relatively unknown firm.
RestaurantFunds.com offers customers two options in ordering the package. The first is the software only for $97 and the other is the software plus two rounds of professional review of the plan and financials by a CapForge consultant for $149. The review offers customers a chance to have someone familiar with the industry look over the work and offer an opinion on where it could be improved and whether the numbers need some additional adjustment before it gets formally presented to potential investors and lenders.
Remuzzi said, “As good as our package is there is really no substitute for having a professional go over the work and identify the small changes and improvements that can be added to significantly increase the chances of success that most people who have never done this before just aren’t going to catch on their own.”
RestaurantFunds.com offers restaurant business plan software and consulting services via its website and was founded in 2002. It is owned by CapForge, Inc. a software and consulting company based in San Diego, CA.
