Of course not! Not intentially, that is. However .... If you fail to
plan, you are planning
to fail!
One thing you need to understand ...
“It's not the plan that is important, it's the planning,” said Dr.
Graeme Edwards, a well-known Dermatologist based in Australia, once.
The fact of the matter is, though, far too many
solo-entrepreneurs fail to plan their business growth or lay down
the marketing strategy that will take them there.
My Sob Story
I know from experience that part of the reason is because of what a traditional
“Business Plan” entails -- executive summary, minutia, details,
yuck!
Can you relate to this?
For years I
made one false start after another, trying to create that huge, complicated
document known as the business plan.
But here's what I didn't realize: These documents were not really
created to help the business owner grow their business to success.
Say
what?
The fact of the matter is, they were created to show bankers that the business
was a good investment. Since most solo-entrepreneurs aren't necessary looking
for a business loan, this daunting document is pretty much overkill.
And
if you're creative, the process of drafting a traditional business plan
can kill your creative spark before it even has a chance to take root and
flourish.
If you don't get anything else, get this ...
You don't need a huge banker-required "plan" ...
What you need is an easy-to-use,
“living” plan!
Then I found what I thought was the solution: the "One-page
business plan."
Created by Jim Horan, this
simple business planning methodology encourages a team effort in creating,
sharing and aligning plans through out an enterprise.*
Although still aimed at
larger businesses, this sounded like something I could do.
So, I found
an expert on the subject and interviewed her as part of
a series of interviews I conducted with women business owners.
The call
was amazing and truly inspired me.
Excited and ready to take on the world, I tried to create my plan on one
page.
But you know what?
I couldn't do that either. Unless I made
the font uber tiny, I just couldn't fit my vision and action plan onto
one page in a way that was meaningful for me.
You can create a plan that is
useful and meaningful for YOU ...
That's when I started on my journey of developing a business plan that met
my own creative needs, while still helping me
plot my course toward my vision.
What resulted was Plan Your Business Vision: Your
Guide to Writing a Business and Marketing Plan that Propels You Toward
Your Creative Vision.
You see, you don't need a huge 50+ page document to guide you to success.
You don't even need a team of executives to help you create your plan.
All you need is a few hours of quiet, contemplative time ...
and a simple, 2- to 3-page business and marketing plan that is easy to use
and keep up-to-date.
“A business plan is ... a tool for understanding how your business is put together. You can use it to monitor progress, hold yourself accountable and control the business's fate.” ~ Stever Robbins, Venture Coach
All the tools you'll need ...
Imagine what your business could be like if:
You had a clear idea of what you wanted your business to look like.
You knew exactly who your business was meant to serve.
You had a map to guide you on the journey toward success.
You knew what techniques you wanted to
focus on ... so you could say “No” or “Later” to
those that would lead you away from your goal.
You had a simple way to monitor how you were doing as time progressed.
That's what Plan Your Business Vision will do
