Business Planning – Using Software
Using Business Planning Software for planning your business and organization.
There are several business planning software packages out there and available for immediate download on the internet. What you need to establish in researching them is what do you want from these packages?
Doing a internet search on this term will reveal an array of options, both paid and free versions.
What are you expecting from your business planning software? A full plan including cash flow projections, marketing plans, KPI tracking, ability to view as charts/graphs?
Also be careful with cash flow projections as to what currency the software is based in and if you are able to change it to your local currency format.
Does the software handle start up costs such as assets acquisition, expenses and financing? Is there fields to enter contingency funding (for acquisitions etc)? Does the software integrate into your existing financial software (or does your existing software have this function and you haven’t used it yet).
Start to do some research and work out what you expect the software to do.
Some links that I found via an internet search are:

Pick a product and go for it. It does save time, asks questions you had not yet thought of and makes it easy to change and implement. You are not after a 100 page plain, but rather a short concise, clear and workable business plan.
