Lets Make A Plan

I have been using a web based business planning tool called PlanHQ. I have been using this particular tool with my clients for about 6 months. Below is a description of PlanHQ taken from their web site.

________
What is PlanHQ
PlanHQ is a web based business plan tool that turns your static document and spreadsheet into a dynamic and up-to-date overview of where you’re going and how you’re tracking.
With PlanHQ, your business plan changes as your business changes, not just once or twice a year. Your whole team is actively involved in creating and actioning your plan and can align and prioritize all their work against company goals. This means that everyone is always working to plan and ensures you achieve your goals.

Who is PlanHQ for?
Entrepreneurs: Keep your multiple ventures on track. Startups: Turn your ideas into a fully functioning business.Growing Businesses: Set, update and monitor goals as your business grows.Investors/VC’s: Easily track your portfolio companies at any time.Business Coaches: Play an active role in implementing your advice.

When you use PlanHQ:
Planning is a process, not an outcome
Your entire team is involved in achieving your plan
Your plan TELLS YOU what needs doing and what’s changed
Strategic goals result in immediate actions
You can track progress towards achieving your goals

I have been having solid success in using the PlanHQ service with my clients. So, I have created a new business plan session in PlanHQ called Sustainable Startup. This session will allow any or all of us to participate in building a business plan in real time, on-line.  If you would like to have free unlimited access/input to this business planning process for Sustainable Startup, send me your email address. I will then list you as a team member and the service will send you a link such that you can create your own password and access. My email address is cameron@cameronchell.com. 

What can you gain from participating? Test, challenge and share your own ideas, gain insight from others on their ideas, watch/participate in a project unfolding in real time, gaining experience in using this software and working with a group to experience it's power.

Remember,  please send me your email address. I will then list you as a team member and the service will send you a link such that you can create your own password and access. My email address is cameron@cameronchell.com

Thanks, I look forward to building a living plan on-line with you.
