They open access to tools for each area of your organization
Whether you need to raise funds, attract volunteers, manage staff, get your phones ringing, or “all of the above” — our “Business Power Tools” software apps and templates make building a non-profit easier by providing the structure you need to keep you focused on your main organizational objectives.
For more than 30 years with 2+ million copies sold, Business Power Tools has been providing entrepreneurs, business owners, and non-profit directors like you with comprehensive and easy-to-use software and templates to fund, build and run your organization.
I have had a dream of developing Promised Youth International, a non-profit dedicated to youth empowerment, transformation and leadership. However, although I attempted several times to complete the proper documentation, I never got it correct. Honestly, I had ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what I was doing. A friend contacted me about these amazing software templates from Business Power Tools. I could not believe how easy these tools made planning and completing the other important projects. The tools literally lead you throughout the process, giving you ideas and lessons on what is needed during each step. What was taking me years to do, took me a few days to fully complete ALL the necessary documentation. Thank you, Business Power Tools, for the tools that now make incorporating non-profits extremely easy to learn and do.

Infogroup asked 1,059 American adults about their charitable practices and
weighted the responses for a representative sample of the U.S. population:Among the findings: 50% give when they have a clear idea of a charity’s objectives.
Consumers are driven to give most when they understand the context behind the need.
That’s why it’s crucial for charities and nonprofits to effectively communicate with their audience.Download Infogroup’s “Americans Love to Give” report for further insights such as:
79% of respondents donate money to charity because it makes them feel good to help others
47% of women say they give when they feel emotionally moved by someone’s story (compared to 33% of men)
Fewer than half of donors were given a follow-up as to how their donation was used
Strategic Planning Software for Non-Profits
You may be thinking… “business planning” is not for non-profits, but this has every element of the strategic plan you’ve been looking for. Financial projections and marketing plans are equal to grant budgets and outreach plans.
A comprehensive business action plan gives you the edge with donors who want to see their money doing the most good.
They donate because they want to make a difference and they want you to do good works with the money they give you. ROI = Return On Impact. Either way, donors are “investing” in your organization.
After using these simple tools, you will have clear action plan to share with donors.
Whether you run a non-profit, a not-for-profit, or a for-profit organization, you still need to run an efficient organization! You might not call it profit or that might not be your purpose, but if you want to stop begging for cash and make the difference you want to make, you must be sustainable. And that attracts money!
BizPlanBuilder writes a strategic plan easily and with beautiful results. Its organized system gives you sample plan templates, built-in financial projections, and a proven PowerPoint presentation template.
Once you know your strategies for the next 6 months or 6 years, donors will be compelled to give you the funding you need!

SynerVision Leadership Foundation provides a pathway of enlightened engagement for organizations seeking transformation. SVLF helps congregations, nonprofits, and communities seeking ways to serve well and respond to the tide of global change who feel lost and uncertain, battered, and dispirited. These seekers look with dismay at the unproductive previous attempts they have made at organizational change and improvement.
Consultants, seminars, and books have promised much to these searching communities and delivered little more than reworked methods from times now long past. Indeed, we are in a time when methods and manuals, quick fixes and weekend seminars do not provide lasting transformation.
Learn More About Hugh Ballou and the SynerVision Leadership Foundation“Consider the case of charities. If they raise money from consumers, they get almost their entire budget in the last month of the year, or related to some sort of external event.
And most people who donate never do so again. Out of sight, out of mind.”
~ Seth Godin
