Some venture capitalists don't like business plan software—they want to see if you can write a good plan on your own. (OK, just delete the footer that says, "Powered by BizPlanBuilder" and show them how good a business plan you can write on your own!) Other investors actually buy copies of BizPlanBuilder for their clients—to assure a complete business plan that addresses all of the questions they're going to ask.

I am a poster boy for your BizPlanBuilder financials - anytime! I buy a copy for every company I work with.

The sections of your plan that a lender will focus on include those addressing historical performance, projected future performance, and management experience. (If you need help putting together an appropriate business plan, try using JIAN's BizPlanBuilder software tool. It is easy to use and recognizable to most lenders.)"

People come to us all the time seeking funding and we use BizPlan Builder to show them the business plan content and format we'd like to see. We refer to it on a regular basis... it makes life a lot easier for all of us.

I've purchased more than 115 copies of BizPlan Builder over the years... and I give them to clients! That way I get a great plan we can quickly get funded.

BizPlanBuilder is a software package from Jian Tools for Sales, Inc. that facilitates the writing of a business plan. Its depth and breadth places it as a leader of business plan writing tools, and we find it both easy to use as well as rich in features. It offers a number of business plan outlines, depending on the type of business. However, for each section of the outline, it not only explains what that section entails, but actually offers sample Microsoft Word text templates which can form the basis of writing any business plan, and thus expedites the business plan writing process. Likewise, Biz Plan Builder sports various levels of in-depth and integrated financial models, using linked Excel spreadsheets, which the user can employ directly or tailor. Its financial charts, projections, ratio analyses, valuation projections, and other financial modules are robust and comprehensive. A complementary handbook on business planning is available as well. We recommend that Biz Plan Builder be considered by anyone seeking a comprehensive and sophisticated business planning tool that is yet easy to use.
