Product Description
Palo Alto Software's Business Plan Pro is the only business plan software with management and implementation built in--plan vs. actual analysis and concrete milestones tracking. This program gives you a business plan in your own words, with your own ideas and numbers, with complete flexibility to make it yours, not ours. Business Plan Pro automatically publishes your business plan to a password-protected site on the Internet.

Develop a plan with guidance and the reassurance that you're doing it right. Business Plan Pro automatically merges text, tables, and charts into a beautifully formatted final document. It takes all of the individual components you've created; collates them as well as blends your text with charts, tables, and other graphics; and prints a well-formatted, professional-looking business plan.

Manufacturer Description
Begin your plan with the help of a 17-step wizard. Then modify one of thirty sample plans or utilize the custom instructions and examples to write your plan quickly. Business Plan Pro compiles all the components of your plan (text, tables, and charts) while you type. An intelligent interface means you will always know where to go to modify your financial statements, text, or charts. Print your plan, publish an HTML version to your website, or upload and synchronize your plan with our secure Liveplan.com server (3 months free). No other planning software is as feature-driven or easy to use as Business Plan Pro 4.0!

Reader Reviews
Bought it, installed it, attempted to use it and now it gathers dust. I can definitely see where the plan on developing this was there and it sounds like a great package. I just think the execution as to how they developed this was faulty. Also the books that come with this weren't very helpful in my opinion. Ultimately if you are looking to start your own business then I would recommend you hire someone professional who does business planning and that can think of questions or answers that you haven't thought of. If you don't have a solid business plan then your business will fail so honestly why not hire someone professional to help you out?? That or use some of the free services that your local SBA offers you. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
