In the center you will be informed about what criteria applicants must meet, how much can be obtained and on what conditions. For example, the requirements may include a short period from the moment of registration of an individual entrepreneur or company (usually 1-2 years), a stay in the past registered with the employment center (you can also receive a subsidy for starting your own business through this organization), and completion of the basic course entrepreneurship, the presence of the founders of the company local registration, the availability of own funds to finance a future project, etc.

The maximum subsidy, depending on the region, ranges from 200 thousand to 400 thousand rubles.

The main argument in favor of the grant will be the business plan that you submitted. In the center for entrepreneurship development, they can advise you on a short-term training course for this skill, they will also advise themselves, on a paid basis, but for little money. In some regions, you may come up with suggestions for writing this document for you. It is better to do everything yourself, if necessary, seeking advice.

Show the business plan to the consultant of the center. If he has comments, make adjustments. And so on until the document does not cause a single gripe.

You submit the business plan and other necessary documents to the center for entrepreneurship development or directly to the regional department of economic development. In some cases, a personal presence at its discussion and project protection, product demonstration, etc., may be required.

note

A business plan is not only an argument in favor of giving you money, but also a standard by which you will then be checked for the intended use of these funds. Keep this in mind when planning and documenting expenses after the grant is allocated.

Useful advice

When writing a business plan, pay special attention to the social significance of the project: creating new jobs (at least one for yourself), the appearance of a demanded service or product, increasing competition in the market, increasing tax revenues to the budget, etc. Read the business plan and decide whether local officials will give you money, at least formally obliged to proceed from the interests of the region and the state.
