Definition
What does a business startup consultant do?
A business startup consultant helps you go from idea to operating company - validating the concept, building the brand, writing the systems, and running the launch. Velakova goes further than advice: we build it with you. You get a complete operating business - concept, SOPs, brand, financial model, and go-to-market plan - not a PDF you're left to execute alone. Milestone-gated delivery means you only pay for work that's done, and you own everything from day one.
The Process
From concept to operating business.
01
4 hrs · $1,000Discovery Session
We get to know you - skills, lifestyle, capital capacity, risk tolerance. This is where we find your lane. A traditional business plan consultant charges $3,000-$8,000 for a document. This is a working session that ends with a path forward, not a PDF.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to start a business with a consultant?
Velakova starts with a free 30-minute virtual coffee, then a $1,000 four-hour discovery session. Full build scope and pricing are presented in an engagement proposal after discovery - nothing is charged until you approve it. For comparison, a standalone business plan from a traditional consultant runs $3,000-$8,000 for a document alone.
What's the difference between a business consultant and a done-for-you builder?
A consultant advises and hands you a plan. A done-for-you builder builds the business with you - concept, brand, SOPs, financial model, and launch - and stays on through operation. You get an operating company, not a document.
Do I need a business idea already?
No. We match you to a vetted concept from a library of 200+ frameworks based on your skills, capital, and goals.
Who owns the business?
You do, from day one. Velakova builds it with you; you own everything.
