I have previously posted that one of the key to success is to have a Business Plan. If you do not have one then start building one today. An online tool I have recently found for writing a business plan is PlanHQ.

PlanHQ walks you through creating a powerful business plan for your business. There are tons of free business plan tools out there for you to choose from but PlanHQ has some very unique features that other business plan builders lack.

One of the features a business will find useful is that you can have multiple users who you can attach to a business plan. This means that you can write a business plan and build actionable items into it. The actionable items can be assigned to members or employees who can then login and update their status on that actionable item. Imagine a unified company all working towards a focused business goal.  I know you would think aren’t all businesses built to work that way? Sadly enough they aren’t. Most businesses owners fail to create a business plan and if they do they fail to share it with everyone in the company.

Another feature that separates PlanHQ from others is the built in nag feature. Most business owners that create a business plan make it and then don’t look at it until they need to update it the next year. What PlanHQ does is sends out notices to the team based on actionable items to find out what the status of that item is. This means that you are constantly reminded what step needs to achieve your goals.

I also like the fact that PlanHQ are bloggers. To test out PlanHQ they have a free 30 day trial that you can sign-up for.
