Save thousands in consultant fees

• Need help growing your existing business? Why spend a small fortune for a consultant who doesn't share your detailed knowledge or overriding commitment to your company? With the step-by-step instructions, advice, and examples in Business Plan Pro, you can create a better business plan all on your own.

Much more than just the software

• Business Plan Pro comes with everything you need to start or grow your business, including a complete video business planning course, the e-book editions of Tim Berry's Plan-As-You-Go Business Plan and Hurdle: The Book on Business Planning books, a one-year subscription to Inc. magazine, research data for thousands of industries and localities, a free company logo from HP Logoworks, special discounts on incorporation services, and more.

Waaaay smarter than Excel & Word

• Sure, you can build your own business plan template in Microsoft Excel, but will it account for the difference between sales and cash flow? Do you really want to spend the time to model the flow from sales to accounts receivable to cash? To handle collection days? And what happens when you accidentally delete a critical formula?
• And if you are trying to integrate your Excel file into a Word document, you face another hurdle just trying to keep everything up-to-date. Business Plan Pro's automatic table of contents, seamless integration of text, financials, and charts, and professional output will save you hundreds of hours every time.
