A business without a business plan is like Alice in Wonderland...

Alice came to a fork in the road. "Which road do I take?" she asked. 
"Where do you want to go?" responded the Cheshire cat.
"I don't know," Alice answered.
"Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter.
"

The Journey

When we set out on a journey, we need to know where we are going and how we are going to get there.  All of us will have used a satnav or a roadmap or asked for directions at some point in our lives. 

A business is no different to each of us:
         - our business, and our staff, are on a journey;
         - we and they need to know:
                        - where we are;
                        - where we are going; and
                        - how we are going to get there together,
or we risk losing focus and direction and being unable to measure where we are, how far we've come and how far we still need to go.

Take the first step...

 Your business is unique and one size does not fit all when it comes to business plans. I will listen to your needs and develop an understanding of your business and the environment it operates in before working with you to decide the areas and depth of focus you require.

My involvement can be as much or as little as you like - from a summary report on a specific area of your business to a full blown business plan together with an action plan, milestones and timings .  

An exploratory conversation is free of charges so what have you got to lose? Contact me now to arrange a no obligation meeting or conversation.

..towards your destination

Your business plan is a map.  With it you can:
  • set signposts and milestones;
  • allocate resources efficiently;
  • maintain focus;
  • measure your progress;
  • mitigate risks;
  • easily share your vision with others;
  • empower your team; and
  • exploit opportunities.
