Daydreaming certainly leads to inspiration, but rarely do dreams become realities without planning & consistency. Did you know December is National Write a Business Plan Month? Since opening our doors in 2007, we've always used December as the month to reflect on what's worked & what needs to be retooled for the following year.
Before you can articulate your vision to others, it's important to compile ideas & organize your strategies; which is the backbone of a business plan.
Make sure your plan:
Identifies the national dates that relate to what your business offers, your charitable efforts, your core values and let that showcase the personality of your brand
Outlines the networking/pipeline/sales strategies around your yearly goals
Reviews & evaluates which methods were previously stale or unproductive to replace with innovative approaches, while building on the success of promotions
