Introduction to Business Planning

My clients are good at their business function and have often grown in the early years. I usually get involved when the business has stagnated and they are feeling frustrated that they are not achieving what they set out to. Normally, revenue growth has not created more profit, just more work!


Planning is an essential business tool for all companies from sole traders to multi nationals. How much detail changes however the process is the same.


This simple 4 step programme enables you to Plan your way to Profit.


1. Answer a questionnaire that will enable us to see your business strengths and weaknesses in 9 areas areas: Strategy, Leadership, Finance, Marketing, Sales, People, Mindset, Time management, Systems.


2. I help you review the answers and show you a method to prioritise the elements that are going to make the biggest difference to you now


3. I will then show you methods to be able create and manage a flexible plan that works for you.


4. Check in after 90 days to help you review and reset the plan for the next 90 days.


There is nothing more motivating than setting goals and achieving them, seeing the difference that this approach makes and the huge impact it has on both your business and your motivation. 


If you want to know how the larger companies have succeeded start planning and see for yourself!
