BUSINESS CHALLENGE
Successful businesses have one characteristic – they have and utilise a written business plan. Remember the old saying – “Businesses don’t plan to fail, they fail to plan”.
If you are second-guessing the customer, underestimating your competition, ignoring your own strengths, mistaking a budget for a plan, being afraid to change or forgetting to motivate and reward your employees, you need to have a formal business plan.
The preparation and execution of a business plan will help you answer these key survival questions:
- What is our present position in our market?
- Where would we like to be?
- What is the best way to get there?
The purpose of this course is to answer these kinds of questions for you.
