A new, free online system guides research, financial analysis and writing of business plans.

Most entrepreneurs are quick with ideas but slow at putting their plans to paper. With the business plan, attempts at obtaining financing or achieving goals can stall. Enter a new online business planning system that makes the research, analysis and networking with professionals easier.

Advantage Venture Systems has launched the Venture Planning System[TM] (VPSpro.com[TM]) online business planning and networking system. Unlike most planners that start with the narrative, the VPSpro guides users through the research and financial analysis first. Once the user in confident in the feasibility of their project, they generate notes to the three-year projections, and proceed with the narrative section of the plan. The plan can then be viewed and draft printed in web format or can be saved to disk for printing or sending to potential investors.

One of the things the VPSpro offers that will be a great advantage to users is the linking to professionals, suppliers and industry specific information which is sorted by the geographic location of the planners and can be specific to the type of business the planner is wanting to research. Advantage is encouraging every business, organization, professional, and even government programs and resources to add their information to the predefined categories in the VPSpro.com "Free Business Listing" database.

"We wanted to create a program that effectively analyzes the financial risks and costs of doing business, but in a way that anyone, not just an accountant, could understand." Rod Francis, Advantage's President explains. "That goal has now expanded to creating the most easy to use and comprehensive planning system available".
