These guys work with entrepreneurs every day. You're doing this once, maybe a few times altogether. A textbook business plan no longer works. You need all the help you can get with a planning system that can get you into business (or keep you going) with or without outside capital — then your deal becomes even more attractive. If this makes sense, please keep reading.

BizPlanBuilder is the first, proven business planning software and continues to be recommended by thousands of bankers, consultants, entrepreneurs, and investors for organizing and financing your business. It's now in its 10th revision!

We wrote the first business planning software 20 years ago and have been refining and perfecting it ever since. Many things have changed and BizPlanBuilder has too. It's still the fastest and easiest way of turning your ideas into a winning plan and a successful business. That's why BizPlanBuilder is so widely accepted (and often referred) as the best business planning software by so many people who really understand business planning and business plans today.

As you research business planning software, remember to count and compare the number of real-world success cases reported by users. BizPlanBuilder seems to have more than all of the others combined! Reviews are nice, but we think you'll prefer cash and business success.

Whether you are raising $5,000 to $50 million, or organizing your strategy for going forward, BizPlanBuilder will help you to produce an investment grade business plan that makes sense to those who control the cash. It's up-to-date and has the right combination of structure and content to help you all the way from idea through financing to the ongoing management of your growing company.

The business plan loved by investors and lenders

Many say they want you to write your plan from scratch, but that's too much work (and just plain crazy!), especially if you need a plan right away. Plus, investors are asking more questions than ever and they want to be absolutely sure that everything is properly aligned before they'll write you a check. You can't afford to take any chances here — since we've been doing this longer than anyone, we can help you anticipate and address all the questions and concerns. By using BizPlanBuilder you'll complete a working business plan that will last a long time, serve multiple purposes and appeal to all who are interested in your business.

"People come to us all the time seeking funding,
and we use BizPlanBuilder to show them the
business plan content and format we like to see."
- David Wilt, E.D. Wilt Investments, Washington DC.

Everything you need to get funded
BizPlanBuilder also includes the all-important supporting documents to use for presenting your plan, plus $600+ worth of extras. For example:

• Sample letters inviting potential members to join your Board of Directors
• Prospective investor tracking worksheet
• Private Offering Disclaimer

And, although others may provide a variety of free Internet resources like we do, we also reveal to you some potentially "politically incorrect" stuff because that's what will give you the edge you need. (Did you know that many investors won't invest in a Nevada corporation because the ownership/management need not be disclosed?)

Multi-user system enables remote access and team collaboration

With this new version of BizPlanBuilder, we overhauled the entire system to make it a true multi-user program. Now you can easily share your business planning project with others — management team, consultants, investors — with complete access control and 128-bit security. Now you can collaborate over a network, server or the Internet. (Emailing, cutting and pasting files is no longer necessary!) For yourself, you can work on your business plan from your office, home, and laptop. It's easy.

The best of hundreds of plans built-in!
Over the years, we've taken the best of hundreds of business planning components and incorporated them into a useable number of great prototype documents you can build upon. You'll find that this method is far more robust than deconstructing and rebuilding a limited so-called industry-specific cookie-cutter plan template. (Read the Reviews.) We've already done the work for you, plus we have been working with entrepreneurs and investors for 20 years.

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.)"
- Doug Hood, Rainmaker Capital, Atlanta, GA

I teach a class for SCORE on how to prepare a business plan. You will be pleased to know that most of our counselors recommend Biz Plan Builder to our clients. Thank you!
- Terry Little

Expert comments throughout explain everything

The next best thing to having us do the work for you is to have our collection of expert advice, comments and suggestions woven throughout every section explaining what to do and why. (Only you will see them—they don't print.) Also, the JIAN Handbook of Business Planning included with BizPlanBuilder provides a wealth of experience, ideas and information, plus a variety of additional tools to help you build your business and manage it more effectively — with or without outside financing.

"I bought 2 other software programs.

See "what-if" when you change scenarios.

As an expert financial consultant, I was amazed at the depth of the package and its ease of use.

Automatic assembly & complete customization

Once you've completed the selected sections, BizPlanBuilder automatically assembles your plan... ready for review, final printing, or saving to a web site. A comprehensive business plan can help you get what you want for your business. BizPlanBuilder makes it easy.

"JIAN's focus on business planning is tighter and more concise than many of its competitors, with a strong dose of sales and marketing insights that help the plan serve as a working document rather than just a financial tool."
- Dave McClure, Accounting Today, January 2006
