Product / User Applications
What do I get with my purchase?
All policies and procedures manuals from Bizmanualz downloadable products (there is no hard copy version). You will receive editable Microsoft Word documents once you purchase.
To download the documents, you log into the Bizmanualz account you created at checkout. With the exception of e-books that are in PDF format, all products are available in editable MS word format for easy customization.
Are Bizmanualz products applicable to a specific industry?
All Bizmanualz products are designed and written for application to any industry, regardless of size or geography. You can easily customize them to meet your needs. Industry-specific regulations are not addressed, though can be easily added.
Does Bizmanualz address specific US state (or local) requirements?
Although US Federal compliance information is suggested, as appropriate, most of the material consists of “Best Practices” that every business should utilize for optimal performance. As part of the customizing that is required, you will need to add your own international, state or local requirements. However, the format allows for you to insert specific information easily.
How often are the products updated, and will I receive notice?
We continually review the products for improvements as needed. All Bizmanualz customers will be notified when these occur.
What is ISO 9000, and does my company need it?
This is the certification process of the International Standards Organization. Many businesses and government agencies require their suppliers to be ISO 9000 certified. For more info, contact us.
How much additional work is required to complete my manual?
Each manual comes with easily editable Microsoft Word documents. Manuals also include a manual preparation guide to help with the format and completion of your manual. A typical Bizmanualz customer can expect to save half the time required to create a policy and procedure manual. The actual time required will depend on your specific situation, need, and scope.
What usage rights are granted by purchasing your products?
Each manual is licensed to you, the purchasing company, for your internal use only or for the internal use of a single client of the purchasing firm.
Are discounts available for multiple purchases or for resale?

Zip files are “archives” used for distributing and storing files and contain one or more files usually compressed to save space. Zip files make it easy to group files and make transporting and copying these files faster.
Computers running Windows XP and higher can open zipped folders on their own. Macintosh users can use the popular utility Stuffit Expander to uncompress Zip files.
