There’s a particular kind of overwhelm that hits when you sit down to write your French business plan.
You’ve got the big vision. You’re serious about moving. You’ve maybe even started looking at apartments (just for fun, obviously).
But then you open a blank document and realise… you don’t actually know what this business plan is supposed to look like.
How long should it be?
Is it supposed to sound formal?
Do you include your personal story?
Are you overthinking every section or under-explaining it all?
It’s no wonder this part becomes the sticking point for so many people applying for the Profession Libérale or French entrepreneur visa.
They have a viable idea, but because the format and expectations aren’t clear, and most people don’t find that out until they’re deep into second-guessing everything they’ve written.
Here’s what no one really tells you upfront:
✅ You’re not writing this for a venture capital pitch.
✅ You’re not expected to know “startup speak.”
✅ You’re writing it for an official behind a desk who needs to quickly understand:
- What your business does
- Why it’ll work in France
- How you’ll support yourself
The simpler and clearer your plan is, the better.
But that’s exactly what makes it hard. Because without a solid structure to follow, you can spiral fast:
- Rewriting your executive summary 12 times
- Getting lost in financial projections that feel more like guesswork
- Wondering if you’ve “said enough” or gone completely off-track
That’s where the French Business Plan Template comes in.
It’s not a done-for-you plan.
It’s a guided Word doc + Google Doc framework built by someone who’s done this twice (and helped dozens of others do the same).
It walks you through:
- Exactly what to include (and what to leave out)
- Clear prompts for every section in plain English
- A format that’s easy for officials to understand
So you’re not stuck guessing what “good enough” looks like. Hundreds of applicants have used this successfully!
You just follow the structure, fill in your ideas, and focus on what really matters: showing your business can work.
