    Why use software to create a business plan?
    Business plans are not rocket science, but neither are they second nature to most of us. You can build the necessary charts, tables, and document sections in office software, but that's time consuming and ultimately unnecessary. Business Plan Pro has everything you need to create a plan today, all proven and error free. Instead of reinventing the wheel, let the software handle the heavy lifting while you focus your time on executing your business strategy.

    Recommended by experts, trusted by entrepreneurs
    Business Plan Pro is the most popular business plan software on the market for nearly a decade now, outselling all others combined. It is the recommended choice of the Wall Street Journal, Entrepreneur Magazine, PC World, Inc.com, PC Magazine, Guy Kawasaki, and other experts--as well as thousands of successful entrepreneurs and business owners.

    Get started quickly with 500+ sample business plans
    Say goodbye to writer's block. Business Plan Pro comes with over 500 real business plan examples to give you inspiration. You can browse the sample plan library by industry type, view a summary of each plan, or skim plans in a printable format. Find a sample plan that mirrors your general business concept, and you can use it as a guide to help you write your own--or even edit it directly in Business Plan Pro.

    Built-in market research data for 9,000 industry profiles
    Having trouble finding reliable market research information for your type of business? Business Plan Pro has you covered. The software includes the most commonly needed data for virtually every industry, so you can compare your projected numbers to industry averages for an accurate business plan. This comprehensive collection of data is organized by Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code. Need to know what others in your industry are spending? What you should spend on marketing? How your initial cost per unit compares? The answers are provided automatically.

    Impress your audience using the SBA-preferred document format
    Need a professional plan document to get funding or inspire your partners? Business Plan Pro produces a complete, easy-to-read document enlivened with colorful charts, tables, and more--all in the format preferred by banks, venture capitalists, and the Small Business Administration.

    In addition to the printed document, you can also export your plan to PowerPoint for pitch presentations, to Microsoft Word or Excel, or to Adobe PDF format. You can even upload it to a secure website maintained by Palo Alto Software and share it with your contacts for collaborative review and discussion.

    Track your plan against actual results for better business management
    Business planning is not just for startups. You can take your business to the next level with the Premier Edition's easy-to-use, powerful 'plan vs. actual' financial tools. Just track your results and manage your business better by comparing your actual numbers to the figures you projected in your plan. These tools help you better manage your profits, expenses, and cash flow. You can quantify the areas where you are succeeding and identify parts of the business that may need more attention. Watching these issues closely can help you correct your course as you go.

    Leverage your data in Microsoft Excel
    If you already have financial data in Microsoft Excel, you can easily import it directly into Business Plan Pro Premier and link it to your forecast. You can name, format, and include these tables as part of your plan, or use them behind the scenes for advanced financial analysis.

    The Premier Edition will help you impress sophisticated investors with advanced investment analysis and valuation. You can both calculate valuation based on sales or earnings and calculate Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and Net Present Value (NPV).

    Plan your cash flow to match the real world
    Many profitable startups and small businesses run aground on poor cash flow. The Premier Edition of Business Plan Pro 11.0 helps you avoid cash flow problems by creating what-if scenarios so you can test the key variables that affect your cash flow. You can also use the CashPilot graphical tool, which provides a visual representation to help you better manage three key components in your balance sheet that affect your cash flow--accounts receivable, accounts payable, and inventory/stock management.

    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Professional Business Plan without the Headaches, Time Drain, & Professional Fees!
    I am a consultant who works with small businesses on startup, growth, and cash flow. I'm no stranger to writing business plans. I've sweated through a number of them for my own businesses and those of my clients. Business plans are time consuming and costly, and really kind of a pain in the neck...until now. I'm using Business Plan Pro Premier version to write my latest plan. I wish I'd started using it years ago, I'd have fewer gray hairs.

    This software provides more than 500 sample ... Read More



    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Palo Alto couldn't make it easier
    The software was intuitive and every step of the business plan was layed out in helpful formats. I would recommed this to anyone creating a business plan even if its only for your own internal use. The program takes you through every step with explanations and examples.

    Tech support is also excellent. I was unable to open a saved file after having had issues with my computer. I emailed the file to Palo Alto tech support and within 24 hours they repaired it and returned it to me.



    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - best Business planner ever
    i Recommend this softwear for anyone who want to creat Business plan for any kind of industry .

    This product is a good tool if you have never done a business plan and you need some help learning what to put in it. Not only that, but the software does all of the calculations and stuff for you, so that you don't have to worry about making trivial mistakes.
