Far more than a spell checker, this utility actually catches errors in financials before your readers do. It puts your business or marketing plan through the same tests and ratios that investors and banks will. And it raises potential problems to your attention upfront. Use Plan Audit™ to find mistakes before prospective investors do. |

When your plan is complete, you can print it from inside the software or export it to Microsoft Word or to a PDF file. Even export data from your plan to milestones in Microsoft Project.
*This product designed for use with US and Canadian versions of QuickBooks Pro and Premier 2002 and later.

*Save on legal fees by drafting agreements and documents yourself. Then talk to your lawyer to finalize them before use.

“I used Business Plan Writer Deluxe and was approved for $1.5 million. The Banks that we presented the plan to said ours was one of the most comprehensive they’d seen. Four months later we raised an additional $1.5 million. Now I am beginning to write another business plan for a distribution company that our company will own. Again, I am using Business Plan Writer Deluxe.”
