Business plan templates in Word & Excel format makes it easy to edit and present your plan

The Macintosh version of Biz Plan Builder is a collection of Word and Excel templates that contain the very same content as the PC program. Unlike the Windows-based program with its document assembly system, we have taken the content and formatted it directly into complete Word and Excel spreadsheet templates for you — beautifully formatted documents that you can easily edit and format to your liking using Word & Excel.

The best of hundred of plans built in!
Over the years, we've taken the best of hundreds of business planning components and incorporated them into a few great prototype documents you can use to easily write your business plan. If your business is even slightly different from vanilla, you'll find that this method is far more robust than deconstructing and rebuilding a limited so-called industry-specific cookie-cutter business plan template. (Read the Reviews.) We've already done the work for you, plus we have been working with entrepreneurs, consultants and investors for 20+ years.

The financial models in Biz Plan Builder for Macintosh use Excel workbooks (they work the same as in the Windows-based system). Click them open, then click along the tabs at the bottom to access each page... You'll see, they're very comprehensive, straight-forward and credible.

I'm a general contractor. I invented a new construction tool and I needed some money to build a prototype and launch a new business. I pretty much knew what I needed to do and I had a potential investor lined up, but he wanted to see a business plan before he invested a dime. I bought BizPlanBuilder on Monday, wrote it on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and on Saturday he gave me $45,000.
