TerraFlow Irrigation — Bank Loan Application

TerraFlow Irrigation, incorporated in 2023, designs and installs water-efficient drip systems for mid-size farms across the Central Valley. Currently serving 14 clients with $310K annual recurring revenue and a 61% gross margin.

The business is seeking $180,000 to fund two additional installation crews and a parts inventory expansion, enabling capacity to serve 40+ clients by Month 18.

Projected DSCR Year 1: 1.41 · Year 2: 1.78
Executive summary calibrated for a commercial lender. DSCR calculated. Funding use itemised. Repayment path shown.
Financial Projections
Bottom-up. Every number tied to a real assumption.
Revenue model: 14 installs × $22K avg · 61% GM
Year 1 Revenue: $488,000
Year 2 Revenue: $741,000
Year 3 Revenue: $1,040,000
Gross Margin: 61%
EBITDA (Yr 1): $112,000
Monthly Burn: $31,200
Cash Break-even: Month 7
All projections derived from price × volume × conversion rate. No top-down market % claims.
Competitive Analysis
Honest landscape. No "no competitors" claim.
Competitor | Strength | Weakness | Our Edge
AquaMax | Brand | 6-wk lead time | 10-day install
RainBird | Products | No service arm | Full-service
DIY/manual | Low cost | Labour-heavy | ROI in 14 mo
Moat: proprietary sensor calibration process + 3 exclusive supplier agreements in region
SWOT included. Weaknesses acknowledged with mitigation plans.
Risk Analysis
5 risks. Specific mitigations. Not omitted.
Risk 1 — Slower customer acquisition
Likelihood: Medium · Impact: High
Mitigation: Pre-signed LOIs from 4 pipeline clients before drawdown

Risk 2 — Key-person dependency (founder-led sales)
Likelihood: Medium · Impact: Medium
Mitigation: Sales process documented; hire sales coordinator at Month 6

Risk 3 — Input cost inflation (PVC / sensors)
Likelihood: Low · Impact: Medium
Mitigation: 12-month fixed-price contracts with 2 suppliers
Two further risks in full output. Plans without a risk section fail credibility checks with every lender.

How it works

How does Business Plan work?

  1. Tell Claude what you need — the skill asks 2-3 narrowing questions specific to the task.
  2. The skill runs live research and structures the output before writing a single word.
  3. An anti-slop quality gate checks the draft, then delivers a ready-to-use result for $9.

Not what this is for
✕One-page pitch summaries — this builds the full 15–25 page plan, not a slide deck.
✕Financial modelling only — it produces the narrative plan with financial summary, not a standalone spreadsheet model.
✕Legal or regulated submissions — the output is a reference draft; a qualified professional must review before filing.

The complete guide to ai-assisted business plans covers what makes a structured plan different from a generic template.

"I submitted the plan to a Singapore government growth scheme and got through to the second round. The financial section was the part they specifically called out as strong."

Quick answers

Do I need a paid Claude account for Business Plan?

No. The free Claude plan is enough to get started and see the skill working. A Pro plan unlocks longer outputs.

How do I install the Business Plan skill?

Download the .skill file, open Claude, go to Customize → Skills → Upload a skill, and drop the file in. It appears in your slash-command list immediately.

Can I edit or customise the output after I receive it?

Yes. The output is plain text you own and can edit freely. Most users tweak specific details or the call-to-action to fit their exact use case before sending or publishing.

How specific do my inputs need to be to get a good result?

The more specific your input, the more precise the output. The skill asks targeted questions to gather context — answering these in detail produces noticeably better results than generic one-line inputs.
