Upload Images, Videos, and Documents to the Appendix Section

We recently launched an ‘Appendix’ section under the ‘Editor’ tab.  Now, you can upload images, documents and even embed videos for your business plan.

Images:
A number of people have asked us to add a feature that allows them to upload images of product sketches, photos of prototypes, charts, screenshots of web pages, maps, and even blueprints for a building.  Now, you can upload all of the above using the Appendix section.  We accept just about every popular type of image file (jpeg, png, gif, etc.).

Documents:
For quite some time, you’ve been able to upload financial spreadsheets and charts in Microsoft Excel format within the ‘Financial Charts’ section under the ‘Editor’ tab.  This is a great place to upload Sales sheets, Income Statements, a Balance Sheet, or your Cash Flow statement.  However, if you have non-financial related documents, spreadsheets, or Power Point presentations that you want to upload, you can do that in the Appendix.

Videos:
You can now embed videos that are already hosted on another site such as YouTube.  Simply find the video on YouTube (or any other website) and copy the ‘Embed Code’.  In the Appendix section, you can select ‘Video’ as the ‘Asset Type’.  From here, you simply paste the embed code that you copied from YouTube.  It’s important that you copy/paste the embed code, NOT the URL of the video.  Sometimes YouTube hides the embed code under the ’share’ button on their videos.

Let us know how you like the new Appendix section and if you can think of anything else that you’d like to be able to upload.
