What Visa Business Plans does

Visa Business Plans is a specialized professional services firm founded in 2009 and headquartered in Coral Gables, Florida, that writes custom business plans for U.S. and Canadian immigration purposes. The firm serves two primary customer segments: individual visa applicants and investors (covering E-1, E-2, EB-5, L-1, EB-1A, EB-1C, EB-2 NIW, and H-1B visas in the U.S. and C-11, C-12, and Provincial Nominee Programs in Canada) and immigration attorneys who refer clients and receive volume pricing. The firm's core technology is a proprietary 77-point quality assurance methodology and a USCIS and consular standards compliance framework, supplemented by multilingual support in eight languages, a standard 10-business-day turnaround, and a 24-hour rush service option. Pricing is quote-based per project with budget ranges between $2,000 and $10,000, and the firm has completed 8,000+ projects across 120+ industries for a network of 1,000+ referring attorneys.

The firm monetizes through professional services fees on a pay-as-you-go basis, with revenue streams spanning core immigration business plan writing, supporting document services (CPA letters, immigration resumes, RFE responses, NIW recommendation letters, impact analysis reports, post-visa approval support), and ancillary business consulting (investor assessment, feasibility assessment, restaurant consulting, business coaching, and SBA loan business plans). In 2025, the company launched ProfitWise, a bookkeeping and financial services sub-brand for visa-holder entrepreneurs, extending into recurring services. Go-to-market is sales-led and event-driven: direct consultation via phone and email, organic/SEO-driven content marketing, AILA conference sponsorship across U.S. and international chapters, webinars, Forbes Business Council thought leadership by CEO Marco Scanu, and an attorney referral channel that functions as a B2B2C distribution layer. The firm holds BBB accreditation, EB-5 Verified status, and AILA Gold Supporter status, and operates from Coral Gables, Orlando, and Tampa, Florida, serving clients in the U.S. and Canada.
