Up and Running:

Starting your business with growth in mind

By Tim Berry
Business Boost: Business Planning for Oregon

I hope it doesn’t seem like total self promotion–I’ve tried to avoid that as much as possible on this blog–but hey, tomorrow Palo Alto Software is going to give away thousands of copies of Business Plan Pro (and not a light version, the upscale, premier version) for free to Oregonians who want it. I would like to think that’s newsworthy, even if it’s my company.

The video here is my talking for slightly less than three minutes, my summary of what happens tomorrow. If you can’t see it for any reason, please click here to go to the Youtube source.

And for more information, here’s the link to the page at Palo Alto Software that explains what we’re doing and provides a map of the 85 locations (mostly town halls and chambers of commerce, no commercial locations–it really is a free giveaway) where people can go tomorrow to get the software.

It’s just for the one day, tomorrow, July 1. For any Oregonian 18 years or older who goes to one of those locations to collect a download card.
