Business plans

Know where you’re heading

If you don’t know where you’re going, how are you going to get there?!

We like our business clients to know where they are going. And there’s no better way than by creating and following a business plan. We also know that if you follow a written plan then you’re far more likely to be successful than those businesses without one.

Business plans can come in all shapes and sizes. We prefer a short and concise version – a plan on a page that summarises:

• Where you are now
• Where you want to be
• How you are going to get there

The result? A set of clear actions that are all ‘SMART’ and that will help you focus your activities for the year ahead.

We’ll work with you to build achievable business plans that can include the following:

• Vision and your objectives (and how to achieve them)
• Sales and marketing
• Financial overview and forecasts

We’ll also let you know which parts of your plan will be useful to different stakeholders: which parts you may want to share with investors, your suppliers or your team.

Benefits

Not only can we help you create the plan, we like to go one step further and help you implement it; and deal with any obstacles.

Quality assurance

Such obstacles can be internal or external, but, don’t worry,  we have  best-practice tools to overcome them.

What we can do?

Whether it’s a tool to create momentum when you feel stuck or worried that you may be trying to change or achieve too much, our accredited facilitators can guide you through to where you want to be.

How much is it?

Fees for such work will depend on: the level of detail required: whether you require monthly or quarterly implementation support, and how much coaching and guidance you would like.

FAQs

How long does it take to create plan to drive my business forward? It depends! Do you need us to create plans to address key issues or would you like an all-embracing plan that requires input from your colleagues and which may be best accomplished in an all-day session? 

Why should we use you? Because we facilitate the creation of your plan: we don’t tell you what to do! 

Will a plan really help my business? Only if you set SMART objectives :which are implemented and you’re willing to be accountable.
