Profit Planner Express online budgeting

Now NCM’s total company budget isn’t just fast, it’s convenient too!

Profit Planner Express online software brings the Quick Budget worksheet we teach in Total Management and Profit Strategies to your computer.

Profit Planner Express makes dealership budgeting pain-free! Here are some of the key features of this online application:

  • Create an unlimited number of company-level budgets, online from any internet connection
  • Access to the system is available for as many users as you wish at a single location; you will be reminded to renew when your subscription is 30 days from expiration, but rest assured that if you forget to renew on time, your budget data remains on file until you renew again
  • NEW! For clients who submit data to NCM each month, import your actual results into Profit Planner as a starting point for your budget
  • NEW! Completed budgets can be transferred directly into the Electronic Transmittal Assistant (ETA) program, without any re-typing
  • From your annual budget, conveniently create monthly sales and margin projections using your company’s own Seasonal Trends (or keep it simple and just divide by 12, then apply your own judgment)
  • Project your big ticket sales and inventory by product type or model (up to 30 total), including projecting unit prep costs, and monthly inventory levels based on desired Turnover; choose to transfer pre-prep or after-prep data to your master budget with a single click
  • Project expenses based on NCM’s Key Expense categories and compare your projected Expense Ratios to Spader Guidelines (guidelines are provided through training, 20 Groups, Management Link™ and other services)
  • Spread projected expenses by month using company Seasonal Trends, even division, or manual spread
  • Print your budget on legal-size or even 11×17 paper if your printer supports it – making it easy to see your entire plan at a glance
  • Project sales and margins for up to 7 total departments
  • Use the special Labor projections box to plan labor by technician, or by labor type, then conveniently transfer the totals to your master budget with a single click
  • Create multiple scenarios using the Copy function – start with one scenario, then Copy it to a new name and make revisions for alternative circumstances
  • Create separate budgets for multiple departments or locations, and then merge them together – simply select all the budgets and click Merge to create a new budget that consolidates all the data into one place
  • Enter your actual results each month using the Deviation pages – then adjust your budget as needed!
