Agreement Builder is Like having a smart lawyer sitting beside you

business attorney sample contractAttorneys' comments and notations throughout each sample contract assure that you understand each section and explain what to do and why. The comments can even be left in to help clarify specific points during negotiations.

These contracts and agreements are written not only from a "US law compliance point of view" as from a "Globally conscious and common sense for human beings" point of view. That's what makes them so good... They are in plain-English and cover what they need to cover to protect each party.
~ Burke Franklin, Founder & CEO, JIAN

Within the included Handbook of Business Contracts we've even provided a mini-course in business law to give you a strong grasp of the basic principles involved. Also, included are sections on "alternative dispute resolution" by using arbitration and mediation vs. litigation. (This is manual in PDF format with electronic book marks making it easy to find and click on the section you want to read.)

Protect your self, your investors and potential acquirers!
Your business is a product too! In the future, you may want to sell it. Therefore, the business relationships you are establishing now can add considerable value to your business. Investors and acquirers will want to review everything to be certain that your deals (the deals they will acquire) are well documented and assignable to them. Considering their interests now in all of your agreements can save you a small fortune in future legal fees, "due-diligence" and/or renegotiations with partners.

...while Agreement Builder won't replace your attorney, it may just keep your costs down.
With a draft contract in hand, your lawyer might not feel obliged to charge so much for services.

These business contracts have been torture-tested here first

We just don't believe that stationery store business contracts typed into a computer will really protect your business and build good relationships. They won't! In addition to our story above, we've paid our attorneys, and used these contracts ourselves, learned from the deals made, and then refined them further to make sure that we do even better the next time. Agreement Builder has been evolving for as long as JIAN has. Your business shouldn't be the torture testing ground for dumb things that can cost a fortune. Instead, you can benefit from our effort, experience, and investment.

Remember, any one of these sample legal agreements can easily be worth 1,000X your investment:

Creating Money: Keys to Abundance

We frequently find really excellent books and articles that relate directly to building and managing a business. We hope you enjoy our observation and these excerpts.

Quoted from Creating Money: Keys to Abundance, by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer, 1988, H.J. Kramer, Inc., Tiburon, CA

If you want money to flow, be clear and truthful with yourself about what you want in exchange for your efforts and time. This means having clear agreements with other people about what you want from them and what you are willing to give them. If you are seeking smoothness and harmony in your personal and business financial dealings, you will want to be clear about your expectations and assumptions.

Often the process of coming to agreement generates the clarity between people that promotes love and harmony rather than conflict or struggle. Once you have a good working agreement there is rarely a problem. Think of a contract as an opportunity to create clarity between you and another person. Read it carefully and reflect on the terms. Are the terms agreeable to you? Do they reflect your intent?

…are there any areas where you are not clear about your agreements? Take a moment now to bring clarity to those areas, deciding what you are willing to give and how you would like your agreements to be.

Works with WindowsFor Windows Users:

  • Windows 95/98/2000/ME/XP/Vista
  • Office 2000/2003/XP/2007
  • IBM-compatible PCs with a Pentium® processor or better, 166MHz or faster
  • 32MB RAM, 64MB or more recommended
  • 24MB hard disk space
  • CD-ROM drive, 4x or faster
  • Mouse or compatible pointing device
  • 24-bit/true-color display
  • Compatible with most popular printers

Please be sure you have all of the latest Windows and Office Service Packs installed... this makes world of difference!

  • Click your START button (on your desktop)
  • Click "Windows Updates" (or visit www.microsoft.com -- look for 'downloads') -- Please follow the Microsoft instructions.

Also, you may need to disable Norton before installing BizPlanBuilder.

Works with MacintoshFor Macintosh Users:
Word & Excel Templates Only — Edit, Format & Print

The Macintosh version is a collection of Word and Excel templates that contain the very same content as the PC/Windows program. Unlike the Windows-based program with its document assembly system, we have taken the content and formatted it directly into complete Word and Excel spreadsheet templates for you—beautifully formatted documents that you can easily edit and format to your liking using Word & Excel. Your download will include a folder containing the documents neatly organized within sub-folders, with an "About" page introducing the JIAN business tool you have chosen.

The financial models are in Excel workbooks—they behave the same as in the Windows-based system with the document assembly system. Click them open, then click along the tabs at the bottom to access each page... You'll see, it's very comprehensive, straight-forward and credible.

No Windows-like Application

Although the Windows "wizard" is not there, the financials calculate just the same way as the PC financials. The text is fully editable—we have already assembled the documents for you for editing in Word. We wanted to offer a version of BizPlanBuilder for Mac customers, but R&D on Apple products is astronomical and is not in our current budget based upon the percentage of customers we have that use the Mac platform. We hope to have a cross-platform product out within the next 6 months that is collaborative for all of our users. We will honor our 6 month free upgrade to you at the time that product becomes available... Please send us a copy of your email receipt (or just email us and we will look you up) when you see a newer version of the product on this site. Thank you for understanding.

Success with Agreement Builder sample business contracts software...


I was immediately able to use the exclusive distribution agreement to establish one of the largest contracts of the company.
- Andrea Sanchez, Owner, International Financial Services, Oxnard, CA


I would recommend this tremendous work of essential legal documents in doing business to anyone! You can use my name and quote anyway or anywhere you feel fit. You have an excellent product that would be of value to anyone self- employed, small business or medium-sized business. (Larger companies probably have their own lawyers, either on retainer or as part of the legal staff.) This is great stuff. And, you are very customer-service oriented. I would recommend you to anyone who had need for your expertise.
- Michael McGee, McGee & Associates, Santa Clara, CA


Just the right type of templates I was looking for. These give me maximum flexibility in preparation of agreements with my clients. Thanks.
- Thomas Morgan, Business Manager, Morgan Consulting, Toledo, OH


I had a non-disclosure agreement drafted by my lawyer, but it was too scary to sign. With Agreement Builder, the text is down to earth and everyone can agree on it.
- S. Haugen, Chicago, IL


I wanted to thank you for your help last week and let you know how things turned out.I purchased an apartment complex in need of major renovation. The funding was somewhat complicated, required substantial documentation and, due to government involvement, we were in a tight time frame. We had a 2:30 p.m. appointment last Thursday with the government review board to make our final presentation, but late Wednesday afternoon we realized we needed a General Partnership Agreement to complete the paperwork. Having our attorney prepare the agreement before our afternoon meeting was highly unlikely. I've used JIAN programs successfully in the past and had this brainstorm to call and see if you could help us. I called you after business hours, Louisville time, and ordered a copy of Agreement Builder to be sent next day air. At 8:45 the next morning it arrived and before noon I had my Partnership Agreement completed. My meeting went great! I've had nothing but success from your programs, and find your service second to none. You can be sure that I will remain a loyal and appreciative customer.
- David Adams, St. Helen, Square Resident Community
