Working with Beth has been wonderful

It's been really great working with Beth and the team so far. I'm really enjoying the process, and Beth and the team have been more than helpful and supportive in editing/revising/supporting me with my business plan. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Scam be aware

Canada startups REVIEW
We paid for the Growth plan package of $1106.67, it was explained going with this plan would be all-inclusive (Be AWARE it is not all-inclusive) and that we would be able to do more than one business plan and Canadastarups.org would do it for us, be aware of hidden fees. Now I have to pay extra for my second business plan, pitch deck, so a complete second business plan, is not the case and my wife has been lied to by the lady (I am not allowed to name the person) from Canadastartups about what we where promised. There is no 24/7 customer support as claimed, the person we spoke to could not help us as he did not have any knowledge about what to say, You are only able to communicate via email and get the email response that they will get back to you in 24-48 hours and it takes longer than that to get a reply. Does not even reply to some emails as well. I feel defrauded by this company. Canadastarups.org is full of promises until you pay them and they have your money. Big Scam

Hello Vincent

Your review is very inaccurate and filled with misleading comments.

The Growth Membership is $997 and includes 1 business idea ( with a business plan, financial statements, and a expert designed pitchdeck ), before we find funding options for you.

If you have a second business (for your wife), unfortunately this is a separate requirement and would require a separate booking.

It is however unfortunate you feel confident only posting a review on TrustPilot versus communing with your experts, to come to a resolution, as all attempts to reach you have failed.

We wish you all the best.

Thank you

Extremely busy business owner

Im very busy and found that working on my business plan overwhelming with all the research that needed to be done and finding the right wording in order to be successful in acquiring grants for my business. Beth was a creative genius and my business plan looks, sounds, and presents as a professional . I would totally recommend to anyone.

Hello fellow entrepreneurs,

Hello fellow entrepreneurs,

It’s with a great immense pleasure and grateful to share with you my honest review on the amazing experience I’ve had with Canada Start up platform till this day.

It’s been a positive journey working with Justin and his team of experts to streamline and guidance to help me and my company to get some funding.

The ressources and tools are very simple to my opinion and will only help you grow throughout the process.

Patience is key so keep strong and never lose hope it’s a marathon not a race.

Fortune favours the brave.

Cheers to everyone!

Kind regards,

Martin Paul

CanadaStartups.org with Beth

At CanadaStartups.org, Beth was very helpful when it came to my business plan. She took the time to edit and make changes that need to be done. She is a sweet and very patient person. She made sure that my business plan was up to date and ready for investors to read it. I am so happy with CanadaStartups.org, they really made my dreams of starting a business come true. Thank you!

$125k funded successfully

Franklin here. I registered with Canada Startups in August of this year and worked in the platform for some time. My review today is about my experience. After the experts finding 8 programs initially, I only applied to 3 of them as they were a better fit. I was approved November 28th for $125,000 in funding, of which $42,000 was grant money. Thank you for your support and I recommend you. David Kosmas brought me on board.
