For most owners that is a feasibility study; for some it is a quick validation test or a model of the cash. - [Areas](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/): We work with owners in all ten provinces and three territories. The method stays the same; the inputs change, because population, seasons, registries and programs differ from one region to the next. - [About](https://bizconsulting.ca/about/): BizConsulting.ca is a Canadian business consulting service for owners deciding whether to start, expand or stop. It is run by Ali Sedighi, MBA, within the Sedighi.ca and SAZ.ca group, headquartered in Vancouver. - [Results](https://bizconsulting.ca/results/): Our published case studies are results from our HVAC work, not from your sector. Read as feasibility tests, they show how quickly a clear offer produces readable demand, and how scale follows proof. - [Pricing](https://bizconsulting.ca/pricing/): We use the group's published consulting rates: $175 to $350 per hour, projects from $3,500 to $25,000, and retainers from $2,500 per month, in Canadian dollars plus GST/HST by province (GST and QST in Quebec). The first 30-minute consultation is free. - [FAQ](https://bizconsulting.ca/faq/): Short answers to the questions we hear most from Canadian owners deciding whether to launch, expand or wait, including what we can't promise. - [Contact](https://bizconsulting.ca/contact/): Call or text (604) 632-4959, or email Ali@Sedighi.ca. We keep Mon–Fri 9–6 Pacific hours. We usually reply within one business day. ## Services - [Business plans](https://bizconsulting.ca/services/business-plan/): A good business plan is short, sourced and consistent. We write plans that let a partner, landlord or lender understand the idea in twenty minutes and check every number behind it. - [Feasibility studies](https://bizconsulting.ca/services/feasibility-study/): A feasibility study tells you whether an idea deserves your money before you commit it. Ours ends in a go, no-go or not-yet verdict, with the evidence and the condition that would change it. - [Financial projections](https://bizconsulting.ca/services/financial-projections/): A projection is only useful if it shows which assumptions decide the outcome. We build working three-year models with break-even and cash runway, and highlight the two or three inputs that matter most. - [Market validation](https://bizconsulting.ca/services/market-validation/): Market validation replaces opinions with behaviour. We design small, inexpensive experiments that show whether real buyers will enquire, commit or pay, and we agree the pass mark before the test begins. ## Coverage - [Alberta](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/alberta/): Alberta ideas usually live or die in Calgary or Edmonton and their fast-growing neighbours. A good study models long winters, checks licensing for prepaid sales, and leaves programs out of the base case. - [British Columbia](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/british-columbia/): In BC, the same idea can pass in one region and fail in another. Lower Mainland costs, Interior winters and shifting provincial programs all belong in the study. - [Manitoba](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/manitoba/): Most Manitoba ideas are tested against Winnipeg first. The study then asks whether Brandon, Steinbach or Winkler add enough buyers, and how a very long winter shapes cash flow. - [New Brunswick](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/new-brunswick/): New Brunswick has three mid-sized centres rather than one dominant city, and a bilingual buyer base. A study here chooses the centre carefully, budgets for two languages where needed, and plans for real winters. - [Newfoundland and Labrador](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/newfoundland-and-labrador/): Most demand in Newfoundland and Labrador sits around St. John's, with smaller centres spread across a large island and a much colder Labrador. Distance and a long heating season shape almost every study here. - [Nova Scotia](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/nova-scotia/): In Nova Scotia, Halifax holds the largest pool of buyers and the rest of the province is spread across smaller communities. The study weighs that concentration against costs, and treats closing programs as a demand risk. - [Ontario](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/ontario/): Ontario has more large markets than any other province, so the study's first job is narrowing: which city, which part of it, and which buyers. Then it prices local costs and leaves programs out of the base case. - [Prince Edward Island](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/prince-edward-island/): PEI is small enough that you can count your likely buyers almost one by one. That makes feasibility sharper: the study checks whether the Island's population can carry your fixed costs year-round. - [Quebec](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/quebec/): In Quebec, language is a cost line, not a translation task. A feasibility study budgets for French-first marketing and service, tests demand in French, and treats provincial programs as moving targets. - [Saskatchewan](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/saskatchewan/): Saskatchewan rewards ideas that can serve a wide area from one base. A study here weighs two mid-sized cities against a network of regional centres, and plans for a long, very cold winter. - [Territories](https://bizconsulting.ca/areas/territories/): In Yukon, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, logistics and operating costs often decide feasibility before demand does. A study here prices the North honestly and sizes the first step carefully. ## Guides and articles - [Guides](https://bizconsulting.ca/guides/): Three working guides that let you do a first pass yourself: decide what must be true, check whether the cash lasts, and test whether real buyers respond. - [Break-even math](https://bizconsulting.ca/guides/break-even-and-cash-runway/): Break-even tells you how many sales cover your costs. Cash runway tells you whether you'll survive long enough to get there. You need both, and this guide shows how to calculate them. - [Go/no-go checklist](https://bizconsulting.ca/guides/go-no-go-feasibility-checklist/): Work through these seven steps before you sign a lease or order equipment. Each step either strengthens the case or exposes the assumption that would sink it. - [Validation experiments](https://bizconsulting.ca/guides/validation-experiments/): A good validation experiment asks real buyers to take a real step, judges the result against a pass mark set in advance, and treats the people who respond honestly. Here's how to design one. ## Optional - [Full text](https://bizconsulting.ca/llms-full.txt) - [Parent company](https://sedighi.ca)
