Q: PlanPros… a couple of questions
As somebody who's been burnt on AppSumo repeatedly, and with LTDs going belly-up almost weekly now, I hope you don't mind my questions:
1. What's the long-term vision of PlanPros? I'm looking for a platform that evolves and where the developer is committed to improvement.
2. What's your cash-runway? You mention PlanPros is funded by another business, but seriously, how long can/will you do that before this venture has to become self-sustainable?
3. You state that funds from this LTD will be used to finance other projects. Are those going to be related to PlanPros and included as part of the "updates"?
4. I've been using Upmetrics and Cuttles (cuttles.ai). The latter was a money-grab on AppSumo. Promising, yet disappointing. Neither platform produced a quality business plan. Do you have a sample PDF/Word document from PlanPros to share?

Dec 17, 2024A: Thanks for your questions. Please see my answers below:
1. What's the long-term vision of PlanPros? I'm looking for a platform that evolves and where the developer is committed to improvement.
We have and continue to solicit feedback from our users so we can continuously improve the platform.
2. What's your cash-runway? You mention PlanPros is funded by another business, but seriously, how long can/will you do that before this venture has to become self-sustainable?
PlanPros is already cash flow positive, so it is already self-sustainable.
3. You state that funds from this LTD will be used to finance other projects. Are those going to be related to PlanPros and included as part of the "updates"?
Yes, we plan to continually invest in PlanPros' features to make it the indisputably best business plan software product on the market.
4. I've been using Upmetrics and Cuttles (cuttles.ai). The latter was a money-grab on AppSumo. Promising, yet disappointing. Neither platform produced a quality business plan. Do you have a sample PDF/Word document from PlanPros to share?
We have hundreds of examples of business plans created using PlanPros.ai.
Just go to https://planpros.ai/business-plan-examples/ and click on any of the categories under the "Business Plan Examples by Industry" header.
With regards to our competitors and the plans you've tried...both of the ones you listed are based outside of the United States. The problem with this is that raising funding with a business plan is different in the US than it is in other countries. I have been writing business plans for 25+ years that have helped my clients raise billions of dollars in funding from US-based banks, angel investors and venture capitalists. So, PlanPros.ai was developed to deliver plans in the format that these investors want...the other companies just don't do that.
Thanks for the detailed and helpful reply. I'll check out the link and sample business plans. I'm based in Germany now but have worked mostly on non-EU business plans. Your comment is to the point and so true. Sadly ..:)
Sounds good!
