Description

A Notion Tool to build interactive and shareable Business Plans.

60-page business plans built on Word are obsolete. However, just because the technique is obsolete does not mean that Business Plans are not valuable. Using the right tools, building a business plan can be a key factor in the success of a project. 

Business Plans in Word (Pdf & other text formats)

• The making process can't be reflected in the final document
• You need several supporting software and apps to work with the team
• You need several supporting software and apps to present the plan to stakeholders
• Sharing different versions of the document may lead to errors
• Difficulty keeping track of good and bad practices for future projects/plans.
• It is not an interactive format for presenting to Stakeholders
• It is hard to maintain the interest of the audience reading the plan

Our proposal using Notion

• The Business Plan is easily sharable with team members & stakeholders
• Team Members and stakeholders can interact and review different stages of the plan
• Each step of the process is documented and organized in one place
• Automations between Notion & other apps such as Zapier or Automate can save a lot of time on the Market Research Stage
• Ability to track the progress of each stage from one place
• Ability to assign coordinators and team members to specific stages
• The presentation can be made in Notion, saving time by accessing information fast and avoiding the use of another software such as PowerPoint.
• It is easier to move from planning to execution using Notion
