Movie Investor Toolkit Reviews

Just want to thank you for your materials and help over the past year. I could not have raised the $1.5 million or made this film without the materials you provided. The bargain of my career!
- James Sadwith, Producer, Writer, Director, Coming Through the Rye

Finished my deck on Friday. Got it into a few potential investor’s hands over the weekend, and by Monday had 3 out of the 10 available memberships spoken for at $160K each. The revenue projections and film comparable services by NASH, along with the business plan and pitch deck templates were instrumental in presenting the project in such a way that financially minded potential investors could understand the movie business, the market and how my project could possibly give them a substantial ROI.

Melissa was amazing throughout the entire process. Always there to answer any questions. Couldn’t have done it without you guys. Can’t thank you enough. Best money I’ve ever spent.
- Michael F, Executive Producer, Inside Sportfishing (March 2021, Gold + Financials Bundle)

Melissa, I was extremely hesitant in purchasing even your lowest priced package. It all sounded to good to be true. I spent 2 months last year writing a business plan from scratch for a different medium. So I just couldn't imagine getting anything worth while for the prices you were offering. But I have an investor that requested a detailed plan with financial projections within 2 weeks, so I pulled the trigger on your Gold + Financials Filmmaker Bundle.

It was the best money I've ever spent! Can't even begin to tell you what a difference it makes. So concise and on point. Makes putting the plan together so fluid and easy. Not having to worry about what to cover, only how to best state it for my film project. Amazing. Thank you so much. Worth every dollar!
- Michael

Melissa, so far the Film Proposal Platinum package has been fantastic. For a first time producer, this toolkit has guided me on a great starting point and has really energized my writer/director into taking this move to get his film made very seriously. The legal document templates have already paid off by getting the option contract done without having to pay for an attorney review.

Looking forward to using the rest of the toolkit as we prepare our investor financials, budget, and sales projection documents. Using the toolkit, we are halfway done with our business plan, saving us months of work. Even though I've only used a small amount of the toolkit thus far it has already made a difference in getting this project up and running.
- Thanks, Robert Bell, SA Fim Productions LLC

I'm almost fully funded for my feature film this summer! The resources you and your team have provided were essential in getting this thing made. I could not have done this without you.
- Chris

Undervalued! Honestly, the more I reviewed the assets of this package, the more I thought there had been a mistake, and that I was accidentally given a higher priced kit. It's unbelievable the amount of time, research, education and competency that is offered here. What this will save you in preparation is only surpassed by what this will earn you in execution. If you're looking for ROI, this is the Slumdog Millionaire of Film Business Toolkits. Get it...and get to work!

The resultant projections are what I needed, and the early feedback from the "suits" in this project is that I've presented a clear yet compact overview of the prospects. They were also surprised it could be presented so concisely and without a complex MBA-style model. By the way, in my projections not all the outcomes are golden, and that adds to my respect for the template.
- TV Producer, now Consultant

Such an amazing resource for indie filmmakers. I'm an attorney and still found loads of value from these materials. I had some foundation established but the Platinum Bundle gave me so many more ideas to make my presentations so much better. Thank you Melissa for making these resources available!
- Dori, Attorney & Producer

A Financing Masterclass For a Fraction of the Price! Five Stars! I have a broad, basic understanding of film financing. I know most of the steps that need to be taken and I know the material that must be present within a film investor package. However, knowledge/theory of what needs to be done and practically executing it are two very different things. The Film Financing toolkit brings both of those worlds together, you get the theory of how a film investor package works along with the practical execution of the packet. At the price range, it is by far the most valuable resource I have come across on the internet. IF you are trying to produce an independent film, spend the money now to be prepared later - unpreparedness can be very costly later on. This should be your number one resource for financing your independent film. - Tyler, December 2020

We recently purchased your film proposal program and we have found it to be one of the best investments we've done for our company. We want to proceed with the business plan review and gather your feed back!

An amazing set of incredibly helpful templates, guide books, advice. The best $99.00 I have spent in a very long time. Congrats FilmProposals!!

Thank you for the Film Financing Package Gold (with the 7 bonus items). The content is substantive, professional, organized and immensely useful and practical. I've been promised this sort of material in the past from other resources and it's NEVER been this comprehensive. Kudos to you!

Well Worth the Purchase Price. Thank you for a wonderful product. Just in the little bit of time I have had with it so far, it is already proving to be well worth the purchase price. Looking forward to diving further into the lessons and templates as I move forward. I would love to be able to take a look at the Investor Tip Sheet as it seems super helpful. -- Joshua

Best Thing Ever Created!! With no business info given in film school, this course is an eye-opening godsend! The biggest issue is figuring out what to send high net worth individuals to get them interested in investing in your film and this kit practically gives you everything needed to do that. -- Alisha M

We LOVE the business plan and the materials in the Gold Toolkit are fantastic! We'd love to upgrade to the Platinum Bundle is that possible?

Very Helpful and Resourceful Materials! Hello, I bought the Platinum Bundle. It is a life saver! I have been able to approach some investors already, with their help and are getting good results and it is expected to get even better soon. I will recommend these products to anyone who aspires to succeed in this field. They are indispensable and legally very instructive. - David, Producer

I'm really grateful for joining Filmproposals and have used your materials to prepare our funding package. We will be funding our movie through a group in [country]! Once we have our funding in place, which should happen within the next 60 days, I'll send you the contact person details for your knowledge and group. - Edileen

Very Helpful! Very useful information and templates. If you use all that the kit provides, you won't be sorry. This kit helped un-blur some of the lines when it comes to putting your package together for investors.

So far, this is a really great bunch of information that you’ve provided. The templates are super and I have no complaints. It was money well spent. Looking forward to the investor tip-sheet. :) :) Thank you!! - Stefan

Thank you for the wonderful package (Gold) we purchased, it is a godsend and is making our task preparing for our pitch to investor easier. - Namib Film - Namibia

I'm almost fully funded for my feature film this summer! The resources you and your team have provided were essential in getting this thing made. I could not have done this without you. - Chris

Thank you again so much. In no small part because of you, your fine staff, Nash & Associates and your incredible body of templates and instructions I’ve been able to raise over $400,000 dollars so far for the film. I honestly don’t think I would have been able to raise a dime if not for the detailed and professional deck I was able to put together following your guidelines. - Michael

Such an amazing resource for indie filmmakers. I'm an attorney and still found loads of value from these materials. I had some foundation established but the Platinum Bundle gave me so many more ideas to make my presentations so much better. Thank you Melissa for making these resources available!
- Dori, Attorney & Producer

Thank you for the wonderful package (Gold) we purchased it is a godsend!
- Guy

We are in the process of preparing our Business Plan and so far am finding the software very good. If we run into any challenges we will let you know. Yes, we would love to receive the Film Investor Tip Sheet. Many Thanks.
- John, November 2021

I am a producer, writer, and director, currently developing an Independent feature. As we all know, getting a film off the ground can be daunting. Almost anyone can make a film these days; the industry's saturated with emerging talented filmmakers, which is great, but I think many filmmakers are forgetting certain aspects early on in the development process. We see many producers who are only business savvy, others are creative. I think the best filmmakers are the ones who can have a bit of both are the ones who break-though. We don't need to be accountants, but understanding the industry and how it operates is very important to the craft of Independent filmmaking.

Film Proposals, with their services, have been an important part of the process of helping our project get off the ground early on. As a filmmaker, understanding the industry, coincided with the story one wants to tell, can bring a filmmaker confidence when pitching to investors.Currently, we have completed a business plan for our film and have presented it to some of the majors through contacts we've made. We're hopeful that we can get a list of investors to pitch our business plan to and help us reach our goal for a January 2022 shoot.

This is a Treasure! I wish I would have found this years ago! What a blessing it has been. We should get college credit for it. Thanks, Melissa and everyone at Film Proposals. - Gratefully, Randy Wootton, Writer, Producer

I just received everything today and am still digesting it. As someone who has been reading about and creating business plans for many years, I do appreciate the breadth and depth of the information provided. I would love to see an update of the content with the recent change in the 181 tax code and factoring in the COVID pandemic which has thrown our industry into a bit of a tailspin. It would be great to see some updated financial projections accounting for smaller (or non-existent) theatrical windows and how to best approach that with investors today. - Anonymous

Really helped my business plan. Very good information and comprehensive business plans and templates for helping me complete my business plan
- Nupur

With the tools Film Proposals gave to me, the Business Plan, the Budget, Comparison Analysis, ROI, and Pitch Deck I feel my self more confident to confront the investors and be more prepared and ready to discuss all issues related to funding my film project.
- George S. Indie Producer.

Film proposals were a great help to ensure our pitch and proposal came across as professional. The templates provided and services offered enabled us to provide industry standard documents which are essential when approaching investors and industry professionals.
- Bobby, June 2021

I am investing in a film for the first time. I wanted to jump-start my education on investing in films. The information I purchased from filmproposals.com was crucial in me moving forward with using films to generate investment income. Also, Melissa is very responsive to questions asked.
- Paul, Film Investor

The Gold Package Templates and associated material are worth every penny! I was racking my brain on developing my own templates and am thrilled that I do not have to reinvent the wheel! Melissa was extremely helpful in answering my questions prior to purchase and I cannot thank this company enough for the work they have put into reducing a lot of the legwork in pre-production planning! I am looking forward to hitting principal photography shortly and will send an update!
- Ryan, May 2021

An Immediate Education! I am investing in a film for the first time. I wanted to jump-start my education on investing in films. The information I purchased from filmproposals.com was crucial in me moving forward with using films to generate investment income. Also, Melissa is very responsive to questions asked.
Thank You Melissa!
- Independent Film Investor, April 2021

One thing that I like is the the administrator has been very responsive to questions. I feel like they want me to be satisfied with the tools they are giving and that is important. Many of the tools have been helpful in putting together my business plan and investor materials so far. I would like to see more comps available for lower budget film projects (under 1 million) I also think it would be great to have the option to run the film comp analysis based on subscription and demand only (SVOD).

- Michael F, Executive Producer, Inside Sportfishing (March 2021, Gold + Financials Bundle)

Filmproposals.com provides a wonderful -- and affordable -- springboard to creating compelling collateral for film projects. The value added at each level makes it hard to decide on the right program.
- Arnold, February 2021

- Michael, January 2021

Invaluable Resource - This is my first venture into fund-raising and Film Proposals is the perfect software to help me get started. Clear guidance through the complex business of film financing.
- Richard, January 2021

Exactly What I Was Looking For!!! It's crazy how elusive film financing is still to this day-- most filmmakers have no clue how to make this a career. Film schools don't teach it, there are little to no courses online, and most people with the information don't want to share it. FilmProposals gives filmmakers the tools to raise funds for feature films.

There is a lot of work involved still -- obviously, you can't expect to just be written a blank check -- but FilmProposals shows you that it is at least possible. I am working on digesting all of this incredible information FilmProposals has provided and am looking forward to putting it into action. I'm encouraged by the fact that it's very possible to raise funds for a feature and there is a roadmap to do so.
- Jacob, December 2020

Although I really like various packages available, I was/and still am very, very disappointed that I didn't buy the Gold Package up front. After having just purchased the Silver Package and getting to really dive into what the Silver Package has to offer, I realize that I made a terrible mistake in not getting the Gold Package with the PPM initially. In full disclosure, FilmProposals does offer a discount off the cost of the PPM, but it would still be more than if I had purchased the Gold Package initially. Bummer!
- Derrick, December 2020

I just took a quick overview of the silver package. I am so excited about the sources and material provided. I can't wait to learn and put together my business plan. Thank you FilmProposals.
- Elizabeth, December 2020

Love the site! Everything is working exactly as I had hoped thus far. The templates are user friendly, easy to navigate, and incredibly informative. It's definitely a crash course into the economic side of the industry. People forget the old saying about Show Business, "business is twice as long as show, and it might be twice as important!"
- Josh, December 2020

This program and offerings are exactly what I've been looking for. It's self paced and covers a lot of the areas that I have questions about.
- Tamia, December 2020

Great information. Just what I need, a structure to getting the finance I need to make my film.
- Peadar, November 2020

I really wasn't sure what to expect. But was pleasantly surprised to get some great templates and information that has more than once proved to be very valuable.
- Jimmy, October 2020

I love this program. I'm new to this industry and this is helping me become more professional. I have spent a lot of time working on my own and getting things accomplished but my projects are getting bigger so as I grow and my team grows with me, these tools will help me to communicate better. Having the basic fundamentals can go a long way in this industry and it make it easier to work with other. Thank you for providing a platform for individuals like myself.
- Owner of K. Simmons Productions, October 2020

Film Proposals was the best investment! When I presented my project to my investor, they were blown away how prepared I was and rarely see filmmakers have half the documents I supplied. It showed that I was serious as a filmmaker and as a business person. I purchased the Gold package with the PPM. The PPM took all the heavy lifting off and saved me so much money that would of cost me thousands from an attorney. The package got me prepared from business plan to financials. I did my research on my film and similar films and just plugged in the info. I had everything prepared and professionally done. On top of that, they offered a review after I followed the steps they gave me.
- Angelo, September 2020

Outstanding! I think the website is great and I really think the information presented is amazing. I don't really have much of a critique outside of maybe the site could be streamlined a bit better. It can be a bit confusing, but it's not terrible. Also, I think the cost of the PPM is expensive. I do understand the great benefit, but considering that most people coming to this site are doings so for next level information they probably can't afford to slam almost 500 dollars down on a document they haven't executed before :) But that is just my opinion. All in all i'm very happy with my information gained from your site and I will be sharing and recommending.
- Richard, September 2020

I haven’t been this excited in years. As someone who is changing careers later in life, I can’t tell you how much the information you provided is going to help me jumpstart my new path. I was devouring the information as soon as I downloaded it. There is a ton of great information and I’m so happy your company exists!
- BJ, August 2020

The business plan is very well-written and structured. Having never had to write a business plan before, it is good value for money, and a valid means of seeing what's meant to go into one.
- Michael, August 2020

Worth every penny. This package has opened my eyes to new possibilities and opportunities in the world of filmmaking.
- July 2020

BEST BUSINESS PLAN. I ordered the gold package and it has been a great tool to help secure investors. The review was a great option because it helped me fine tune my business film proposal to be its best. I would highly recommend this package. It's a small investment to secure a huge investor.
- May 2020

I bought the Silver Package Movie Financing toolkit and it was more than expected. I haven't actually started on my filmmaker business plan, but going through all the tools there more than enough tools to build strong and impressive business plan. The template is not the normal run of the mill, but its designed where all you need to do it edit and tailor to your individual plan. There are a lot of other good things in the package to make a successful business plan: Financial PROJECTION, COMPARABLE MARKET DATA, INVESTOR INFORMATION, SAMPLE PITCH LETTER AND SO MUCH MORE. I have paid for templates before, but they were so hard to work, so I sought out the FilmProposals Toolkit, and found it to be everything they said it would be!
- John Johnson (May 2020)

Was having the most difficult time trying to create and write a business plan for my production company. When I came across Film Proposals and their templates/resource materials, it was a business plan blessing. It made my life so much easier and I was able to complete a 36 page business plan for a production company in a MUCH shorter time.
- Kem Charles (May 2020)

As a independent filmmaker I've been working hard in getting this information from the WWW. I could only afford the bronze package at this time but I have found it invaluable. The business plan, manual and spreadsheet has save me so many man hours and I know I will be using them time and again. Thanks for your product and when I can I'll certainly upgrade to gold which I am sure will be just as good.
- Joe London (May 2020)

This has been very informational and helpful. I would love to see more examples of the legal agreements that are used (for acquiring script rights, typical distribution contract, etc.). I’m trying to wrap my head around all the legal stuff and would love more of that information. I would also have liked to see more data on how Covid-19 has impacted the industry so far. I realize the information does not exist yet, but I found myself hoping for it anyway. Overall, I’m quite pleased with how helpful it has been. Thank you!!
- Jacob (May 2020)

Where to start – one of the best things about using filmproposals.com was the step by step process to not only put together a professional proposal but with all the material that’s included – it is a crash course on how the mechanics of the business part of ‘show business’ actually works. If you take your time to absorb all that is offered – you will be prepared for entry into this very insular business – especially from the point of view as a writer and producer. It’s not that all the books and books of material about this business aren’t helpful – but filmproposals.com has laid it all out in a digestible form so that it makes sense in a business that sometimes appears to have no rhyme of reason on how things work or ever get produced.

As in any business venture – there are ‘tricks of the trade’ – but when dealing with investors – it is all arranged in great detail what you are offering and what they definitely expect. After completing my proposal – I feel more prepared than ever to take the next steps! Thank you filmproposals.com!

The business plan info really opened my eyes to how a lot of this business is so dependent on a sound business plan... and that creativity does not have to be compromised.

I looked at this page probably a dozen times over a couple of months before buying the Silver kit. Thing is, there aren’t many sites on the net that have good information on film finance and distribution and even though the Silver Package was $99, I needed an investor template. So with a money back guarantee I figured it was safe. They send lots of information and some of is very hard to find. I personalized a couple of the templates for a project I was working on and that saved me dozens of hours writing the stuff from scratch. I would say it’s a good investment and if it doesn’t fit what your doing, exercise the guarantee. For me it was a deal in what time I saved.

I LOVE THIS MATERIAL. I have read several other books on financing, but this program gives you an in depth look into PPM, Business Plans and how to approach financial world of film investors. I learn several new ideas for financing a film. also, I learned how to write a business plan, a ppm, etc. This material will give you the knowledge you need to get to where you want to go in the film industry. I truly recommend this material for any indie film maker. - Charles Franklin

Invaluable Templates. Thank you so much for gathering this information and making it available to the filmmaking community. This information is invaluable to those of us in the independent filmmaking space. I am following the templates to create a great proposal for my project.
- Drea

Helpful Tools for Indie Filmmakers. I've been happy with my purchase. It has been enlightening to read about the more in-depth aspects of film financing, and going through the silver package has stimulated a whole new creative process aimed at building an appealing business plan. This was all a foreign concept to me not long ago, so I really appreciate being exposed to the film business world in such a thorough and understandable manner.
- Charlie

I've just spent 20 minutes going through the materials I purchased with Package #3 and I already know it is going to be a huge help in getting me to the next stage in my producing career. I can't wait to dive in and start creating my first business plan.

**Update*** I’ve now worked with it for a few weeks and thought I’d let you know what I think. I liked it a lot. The format is well organized and professional looking and much of the text is worthwhile. I also chatted with your rep on line before hand and they answered my questions very well which allowed me to move forward with the purchase with confidence. It is a pity the the MPAA reports are not available until April. Thanks for putting together what appears to be a very useful package, and the website has a ton of great info too.
- Tim

Hi Melissa, Thank you for this package, it is extremely useful as I am gearing up to meet several potential investors in the following weeks. The manual is filled with useful information and teaches the way to communicate in business terms. It is the first time I come across such a useful and complete information guide. The templates will help me tremendously and save me much time which is always needed. I now feel much more confident going to these meetings!
- Laurence

Beyond Expectations. Exactly what I was looking for. As a 30 yo money and finance guy looking for specific tools for the film industry... this more than fit the bill. Thank you!
- Charles Brummel

I am excited to hear all the success that Filmmakers are having with Film Proposals.com Investor Package. I just ordered package #3 with 7 FREE Bonuses and I cannot wait to dig into it! WHOO-HOO!! - Tommy Phipps

Hi Melissa! I purchased Package #3 a couple of days ago, and I feel like I'm taking a crash course in film financing. So far, what I've read and learned has been invaluable. Thank you!
- Emily

Very Helpful. I've made short films before, but this is my first feature, and the first film I've tried raising money for. This template, actually the whole package, has been invaluable and well worth the money I spent on it. So much information is packed into what I got that I'm almost dizzy from it all.

Just what I needed! This is perfect - I have potential investors but I had no idea how to prepare a professional investment package to present to them. (I'm an artiste', not a business person. :) ) The information is clear and easy to understand, and Melissa is very prompt in answering emails. Thanks!
- Balancing Act Pictures LLC

This is fantastic. I am confident having this awesome tool to present our film proposal to investors. Easy to follow and implement to our film project. We highly recommend it.

We recently purchased your film proposal program and we have found it to be one of the best investments we've done for our company. We want to proceed with the business plan review and gather your feed back!
- J, L & V, Producers

Great Tools for writing a business plan the first time! The Business Plan Tools gives you a great starting point for writing your truly professinal business plan before you go out to seek funding for your film. A no-brainer for newbies and low level of experience producers who wanna take the next step.
- MrBigJ, independent film producer

Brilliant!! An amazing set of incredibly helpful templates, guide books, advice. The best $99.00 I have spent in a very long time. Congrats FilmProposals!!
- Diane

Professional Tools to get the Investors to Give Money. Wow!! I just purchased the Finance Film Package #3. It is really good. I am an experienced Film Producer and I have been trying to get financing for 3 years for my film Smoke E.Z. I need $8,000,000. After 3 years I gotta take the plunge and get some professional tools to get the investors to give money for my film. I don't $10,000 for all of this to be done, so I have the challenge to do it myself. This is a really good package to buy if you are looking to finance a film over $5,000,000.
- Spencer J. Fox

Thank you for the Film Financing Package #3 (with the 7 bonus items). The content is substantive, professional, organized and immensely useful and practical. I've been promised this sort of material in the past from other resources and it's NEVER been this comprehensive. Kudos to you!
- Jon

After much research on the subject, we chose the FilmProposals.com Package #3's business plan and financial templates, which we are already putting to good use for our new film production LLC, "Take Us There Films." Also included in this package were several documents filled with helpful hints and good, solid advice that's sure to bring in the investments that will make our company successful. I highly recommend subscribing to your newsletter and checking out the blog. Your website itself is filled with invaluable information. Thank you.
- Judith Ososkie

After several days of researching where to get the materials for our upcoming Feature film Independent Low Budget project I finally decided to try FilmProposals.com and their information in downloadable format. I was shocked and impressed after purchasing Package #3 as to the thoroughness and amount of information provided! I will soon be starting pre-production on my first feature film as director, producer, screenwriter, and have already begun development, fundraising, and my business plan is 10 times better than it was before receiving their materials and information. Wow! Thanks.
- Randolph M Hirsch

Just want to thank you for your materials and help over the past year. Just finished post on our $1.5 million picture "Coming Through the Rye" with Alex Wolff and Chris Cooper. I could not have raised this money or made this film without the materials you provided -- and for $99? The bargain of my career!
- James Sadwith, Producer, Writer, Director "Coming Through the Rye"

I just bought this Business Plan Tools but I thought it will include a draft for investors agreement for the investors which I can't find. Please be kind to tell me it it includes something I can use to sign with my investors.
- Mauricio Arouesty

Thank you! I just stumbled across your site looking for film industry forecasts. Wow. It took me two seconds to download your income projection spreadsheet. I will look into your other services as I am putting together my business plan.
- Ross Schriftman, Writer and Producer, My Million Dollar Mom

Incredible information. An absolute gold mine for the independent filmmaker. Do yourself a big favor and order today!!!
- Barry Morgan

Make Your Movie! Great stuff. Lots of great nuggets with these packages in a world full hard to find, hidden and secret information! Thanks!

Exactly what I needed! I purchased the financing manual, the film projections template, and the business plan template package for $99 and it was exactly what I was expecting! Great purchase and incredibly fast delivery. The documents were exactly what I was looking for! Highly Recommend to purchase this package as it does come with everything you may need to structure your rough business plan draft!
- R. Vilar

It's exactly what we were looking for. The package is very clear, simple to use and includes all we need to prepare a very good business plan. Thank you very much. -Amine

Great Materials. This package is a great material to my career!!
- Tom

Hello, I purchased your package and I am delighted with it! It has saved me time, shown me the light and illuminated the WAY. I am well on my way, a few months after receiving this information, towards producing my FIRST Feature! Thanks a million!
- Vic, Richmond, Virginia, SOMEWHERE in CHINA!!

After searching the internet for some guidelines, we found the tools and resources on your site that will allow us to create a professionally prepared investor package. The information and templates provided have spared us from hours of research. Thank you.
- Eleanor

GREAT STUFF!!! This package is very useful. Very educational and saves tons of time researching and building plans and projections from scratch. I would highly recommend this to anyone trying to raise money for an independent film.
- Tony

Excellent information for starting a film company. The information and software given really helps with all the in and outs for starting a company in the film or production industry. It is worth the $99.00 to get started. This was an excellent investment for our company to get started in this industry.
- Chris

I’ve been out of the industry for a lot of years and venturing back means I have to update and polish my knowledge. When I came across the Business Plan Tools and the Finance Guide, I felt like I could stop searching for the pot of gold ... I’d found it. In one place, with clear, easy to follow materials and spreadsheets, my questions were answered. It still depends on me and what I do but the blueprint is all there. Thanks. - Barry Pierce, Producer, River Dreaming Entertainment

Extremely Beneficial! The Film Proposals package is more than worth the money! The business plan is very complete, and easy to modify to your specific needs. FilmProposals.com has thought of everything. It's time to make a movie!

Really like the automatic spreadsheet, the main reason I purchased your package. I also like the proposal layout and will use it for private investors. I'm actually prepping a film for AFM and am using a little bit of a different proposal for that, but the charts are fantastic and a real timesaver. Thanks again! - Jess, Producer

I purchased your products when developing our project. It has been hugely helpful; we are currently working with a noted Hollywood Producer who has hundreds of millions of critical and box office successes on his IMDB page, http://pandoranage.com. - Dante

I really think you have done an amazing job putting together this package and it brings me great relief knowing that I can consolidate all the information and paperwork into one clean and professional package. - Michael, Producer, Honolulu, HI

Melissa, the unlocked version really helped a lot. Now I can work in other numbers such as Number of theater screens, P&A Interest, tax incentive/rebates, loan interest, and revenue splits with investors. I hate Excel, so this is very useful. Thanks again - I really appreciate it. - Scott, Producer

A great jumping off point and confidence builder. I found the business plan template and film financial comparison table a great starting point. Reading through the Film Financing Manual, I gained a lot of confidence that reinforced my own ideas. I ended up taking the bits I wanted and customizing other sections to create a condensed and concise 11 page business plan, backed up by a whole lot of figures and data. In the US economic slump I found investors were looking for alternate investments with high yield and my Film Investor Brief was perfect! - Andrew

Gave Me Critical Elements Investors Seek and Helped Me Organize. The package provides an important template that helps structure the business element of film making. For the longest time I stared at the screen that was to be my self developed "business plan"...to no avail.

Then I found your Manual and Template and your software not only gave me the critical elements that any investor might be looking for but also helped me organize the many facets of the process. More than creating a film "implementation" path, it also helps create a shared vision with other shareholders. Overall a great tool for the Independent. - Mike LaChapelle

Both FilmProposals Site and Business Tools Extremely Helpful. I am still in the midst of writing our business plan, and keep referring back to this website after purchasing the Film Financial Projects template and Film Business Plan template. Not only do both continue to be the right tools (after researching A LOT and seeing others out there) but the website resources are extremely helpful as well.

I like having the template to follow, but also know that film business plans are different than regular business plans. That makes the task seem very daunting, especially gathering the financial data needed to plead your case to investors. By far that is the toughest part, so having the financial template makes it a lot less scary to tackle.

Other than this site, which I keep coming back to, I have also found Louise Levinson's book "Filmmakers and Financing" to be extremely helpful. There is a sample business plan in the book, but the Film Proposal business plan template is much easier to follow and a better guide. Levinson's book is a great resource for WHY each section of the business plan needs to be a certain way, but I use the Film Proposal template for actually writing the plan. - Frances

I found your software to be exceptionally useful for me in helping to define the financial aspects of making and potentially profiting from a film. Having worn many different hats in the entertainment business over the years I finally decided to seek out a great project and then get it financed. As a first time Executive Producer I found your software first to be great for helping me understand film financing and second helping the various investors who we have been pitching to better understand their risks and potential rewards. I would certainly recommend this software to anyone thinking about seeking financing for films.- Robert Bovill

I needed a good, quick template for multi-modeling a TV Special, with various distribution channels, and all the templates from my former life at a major are multiple sheets (very large), too complex and difficult for a lite Excel user. (And archived someplace on iomega jaz on top of that.)

I came here from a search, and I was drawn to the Film Projections Template and the possibility of opening it up to change text cells and add a few lines for my distribution channel needs.

I'm very pleased with the result. The folks here were quick to answer my questions, and supplied me with the unlocked spreadsheet as promised. (I dare say that Support here was far more responsive than the IT group I dealt with at a major. They even write in normal person language.)

The resultant projections are what I needed, and the early feedback from the "suits" in this project is that I've presented a clear yet compact overview of the prospects. (Actually, more like surprise that it could be presented so concisely and without a complex MBA-style model.)

By the way, in my projections not all the outcomes are golden, and that adds to my respect for the template.

The Whole She-bang!! I purchased the whole set. There is quite a bit of information to digest, and even after spending about a year and a half doing research and gathering information,there is quite a bit in here that was very helpful and that will be utilized, not only in the short term, but the long term as well.

I would like to see some additional alternatives, as well, to represent the changing landscape of this industry. (For example, web series, internet marketing revenues, and some of the emerging technology.) These can be modified to account for these with little effort, but would be curious to see if there might be a different or better way.
- Alexis Adkins

I can truly say that the support with any technical question or concern was addressed in a timely manner. I really appreciate Melissa taking the time to work with me because I am not computer savvy. The Film Template did all the work for the Budget I had to submit in my Business Plan. It's Great!!
- Sherry Bradley

The customer service and Business Plan Template provided by Film Proposals is great! I screwed up and downloaded the template, which is great, but my partner already had already purchased it and had it in place on another project. They were prompt in providing me the 100% refund with no questions asked.
-Peter

Both the proposal for indies and the template for profit projections proved to be invaluable tools in putting together my proposal package for the film I am presently developing.

This Would Have Saved me $2,000. Absolutely Essential. Hi - Seth Hymes from Film School Secrets. I'm an NYU Film Grad and Independent Filmmaker. Several years ago I hired an attorney to help me draft a business plan and Private Placement Memorandum to raise money for a film project called "Breaking Balls". Using those documents I raised $30,000 from private investors. A friend recently referred me to filmproposals.com and I realized I could have saved myself $1,000-$2,000 in attorney fees by using this software!

The information here is extremely valuable to an independent filmmaker looking to present themselves in a professional, compelling manner to potential investors. These kinds of documents do get results. And it offers information and training I didn't even get in a top film school. I only wish I had known about FilmProposals earlier!

These products are very very good and also the customer assistance is very quick. I am very satisfied. Thanks, Elena Baldessari

Best money I ever spent! I postponed writing my business plan because it was (in my mind) the hardest thing I would ever do. Procrastination was key here. That's when I saw the Film Financing Manual and Business Plan Template. Eureka! As it turned out, the business plan WAS the hardest thing I've ever done, but with the tools in the package, it made it much less stressful and the more I got into it, I thought to myself - YES!!! - thank god someone knows what they're doing...

I'm now sending out my completed business plan/film proposal document to potential investors and the one comment I'm getting back almost immediately is that it's so well laid out and professional. Believe me, first impressions really do count. When someone sees that you take your business seriously, they're much more likely to take you and your projects seriously. Best money I ever spent!

- Kathleen

I had no idea it was feasible to get a handle on film finance myself and was really inspired to see I don't have to be a writer hawking scripts until I die. I can actually make my film!

I was also inspired by how much information is out there to facilitate first-time film making, and how much FilmProposals is on top of this information.

I am an independent producer preparing projections for investors. I found your program one of the few available online that is actually useful, so I hope you are making a fortune with it. - Toby

Like a 6 week business course in a short Manual. Vastly exceeded my expectations for the price. I wish I'd found you before I started spending all that time looking for film info on the internet. You would have saved me dozens of hours (and I'm worth at least a dollar an hour, ha)! I actually think these products could be used for any type of business plan, not just film. There's a lot of film stuff in there, but the template could easily be used to write another type of biz plan. - Steve

Everything but Hybrid Distribution. After reading the book "Film Business Plan and Investor Guide", I bought the Silver package from Film Proposals. Going through the package demystifies the whole Business Proposal. Between the Business Plan Template, Film Financial Template, Financing Manual, Film Pitch Deck and Film Investor Agreement Outline, a substantial chunk of the Business Proposal is covered and is a great start for independent producers who have never created a proposal before.

If there exists a one stop shop for a business plan and crash course in film finance this is probably it. The real value here is the market data - I'd pay 100$ for that alone. A real time saver.

You probably want to contact a lawyer as many of the details laid out in the plan are for a very specific type of structure and there are many ways to structure the deal. Based on the content I saw there's no reason not to use the recommended lawyer in the package. Seems like this is well thought out.- Grant

The Film Proposals Financing Package #3 I purchased contains a plethora of information to help the filmmaker overcome the most common hurdle of making a movie...money.

I found all the material to be very useful, well laid out and easy to get through. There was very little "filler" and there was a lot of great information. Highly recommended.

I have produced commercials, documentaries and corporate videos but never Indie films. With only 19 pages including the cover, contents page etc., the manual is thinner than expected. On the other hand, the concise manual does deliver and provide all the necessary information, tools and resources I need to create my first film proposal with confidence. I am also grateful that they so graciously replaced without charge a previous version of the manual which I deleted by accident.
