Strategic Business Planning

A Strategic Business Plan is much more than a tool to obtain financing. If you still have all of your plans and ideas locked up inside your head, preparing a strategic plan helps you clarify your company's direction, ensures your key leaders are all "on the same page", and keep both management and staff focused on the tasks at hand.

A Strategic Plan is often needed when...

• Starting a new venture, product or service

• Expanding a current organization, product or service

• Buying a new business, product or service

• Turning around a declining business

The Strategic Plan provides a blueprint describing your company, its products, the competitive environment, management team, financial health, and business risks.

The plan allows you to...

1. Identify and describe the target customer profile, features, advantages and benefits of your new venture, product or service.

2. Justify that your plans are credible by fully researching the need being filled with your new venture.

3. Develop staffing plans including identifying the key players, skills, attitudes and expertise needed to build the venture.

4. Develop management plans including full descriptions of management systems and timelines for implementation.

5. Develop financial plans including projected startup costs, operating costs, revenue, profits, and break-even analysis for the first 3 to 5 years.

6. Identify building and equipment needs.

7. Formulate company milestones including timelines for upcoming products and services in development.

Remember: Failing to plan is planning to fail.
