Access Method:Thin Software Download| Platform for Display:PC Download|Amazon Verified Purchase
I must preface this by saying I purchased this software when I was already about half way through the creation of my business plan. That may have affected my perception of the software. But I was running my head against a wall trying to finish the entire business plan and out of desperation purchased this software. I went through the process and didn't find it helpful at all. It did not go with what I'd already done. So there wasn't a lot of room for cutting and pasting the parts I'd already done. And there isn't any room for customization. At least not that I can tell. You answer their questions and get their headings. You can't really call a section by a different name. Anyway, it didn't help me at all. I ended up just having to wing it and figure out the other parts by myself. If you are looking for a business plan helper, I would just read a book from your local library. That's where I got the most help. I don't know that there really is a software out there that can help with the process since every business plan really needs to be specific to your own business. Just having software in and of itself means you have to make your plan a little more generic than is appropriate.
Listmania!
