Won First Place
“Two nights before our business plan was due for MOB (FME equivalent for Transfer Students at Babson) I had started researching items that could help us get an advantage over our competing classmates. I came across Biz Plan Builder and found it to be the best rated from everything I could scour on the net. When I asked what his thoughts were, I discovered that my father had used it a couple years back to help create a business proposal for one of his entrepreneurial projects. With the help of this software we were able to create a clear plan of action that enabled us to clarify our thoughts and ultimately take first place. The included Excel spreadsheet financials were invaluable in answering questions for our mock investors and were far more detailed than what the other team had assembled. Recognized and approved by our professors, BizPlanBuilder isn’t cheating; it simply assists in the organization of your thoughts. I highly recommend this software if you need to write a business plan and if you have to do it with a team then you’ll love the new collaboration feature, too.”
~ Prescott Paulin, Babson College, Boston, MA Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Also, just to note, as I was doing the market research part of the program for class, I was able to apply it to my job and find new clients for my boss. I got a promotion out of it so thank you!”
~ Matthew Wingard, ULM, Monroe, LA

“I’m actually really excited about this new venture. I have already invested $2,000 in purchasing a property for back taxes. From there I will remodel and sell. Once I have built enough capital from the expected high ROI, I will be secured enough to purchase a sustainable number of rentals. This class and software have really set me on a path that I may have never actually taken a step towards. Great software!”
~ Randall T. Hopkins, ULM, Entrepreneurship

“I picked up this software to help me with my MBA classes. We used the tool in a group project and it really helped us focus on content without arguing about sequence / direction / document stuff — we cut to the heart of the business issues of our assignment. I would bet it would be a hit with others in an MBA course venue as well. This of course led me to keep an eye on your other products, and I ended up purchasing the Employee Manual package as well.”

“Best advice on starting a business!”
“Wow! He makes me believe I can start a business!”
“So real, so funny!” and
“That was incredible!” were just some of the comments.
