Share Your Business Plan on Facebook and Other Social Networks

Bizplan.com now gives you the ability to share your business plan on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and a number of other social networks.  This gives you a nice way to share a link to your plan with friends and colleagues who can add comments on your plan.  Let’s face it, you don’t have all the answers.  That’s why you’re writting a plan!  So, the more feedback you can get, the merrier.

To share your plan via your favorite social network, just click the ‘AddThis’ button on your Bizplan.com Dashboard or on the Share page.  You’ll need to set your plan’s privacy level to ‘Public’ before you can share it.  Don’t worry, if you forget, you’ll be prompted to do so when you click the ‘AddThis’ button.  We try to make things easy around here.

One important point: When you share your plan through the ‘AddThis’ link, the people you share it with will only be able to view your plan and leave comments.  They will NOT be able to edit your actual plan in any way.

Okay, we can already see the questions coming….


Why does my plan’s privacy level have to be set to ‘Public’?

We figured, if your plan is set to ‘Private’, then that’s the way you want to keep it.  You probably don’t want to be sharing it across a social network.  Plus, our tech team says there are about a million complications from a programming standpoint.  We didn’t want to start any drama, so we took their word for it.  If you switch your plan to ‘Public’ and later decide you want it to be ‘Private’, don’t freak out!  You can always switch your plan between ‘Public’ and ‘Private’ right on your Dashboard.

What exactly am I sharing?

Again, when you share your plan through the ‘AddThis’ button on your Dashboard or on the Share page, you’re simply sharing a link to the public view of your plan.  Anybody that you share your plan with will be able to read your plan.  But, they won’t be able to make changes to your plan or alter you Bizplan.com account in any way.

Did we miss anything?  If so, just shoot us a quick note by using the ‘Contact Us’ link at the bottom of www.bizplan.com.  We promise…..we’ll do our best to help!
