WHAT IS A BUSINESS PLAN? 

A business plan is a formal written document containing the goals of a business, the methods for attaining those goals, and the time frame for the achievement of the goals. It also describes the nature of the business, background information on the organisation, financial projections, and the strategies it intends to implement to achieve the stated targets. A tailored business plan serves as a plan that provides direction to the business.

THE PURPOSE OF A BUSINESS PLAN 

Whether you’re a start-up or an established business wanting a refresh with a new approach, it’s important to have a plan to help you achieve your goals. A business plan is used to help manage an organisation by stating goals, how they will be achieved, and exactly when. The business plan will also help summarise what your organisation is about, why you exist, and where it will get to in the future. It will serve as a key point of reference for investors, partners, employees, and management to gauge progress against your objectives and help you achieve your goals. 

12 Key Steps to Start or Refresh your Business Plan 

  1. Business Description – A business description explains exactly what your company does, which includes your Mission, Vision, Purpose, and Values.
  2. Products and Services – Your products and services outline what you offer that would appeal to a potential client wanting to buy your products and services.
  3. Pricing Model – Your pricing model needs to be clear, easy to understand, and consistent in where it adds value to your new and existing clients.
  4. Industry Trends & Competition – Having good customer insight and foresight is key, but what is also important is understanding what your market demands, including your competition.
  5. Client Strategy & Target Market – It is important to have a clear plan of the ideal customer/industry that you want to target to get the best return on investment.
  6. Marketing Strategy – Linking your marketing strategy to your target market and incorporating what your company offers is an ingredient for success. The goal is to have a clear plan. 
  7. Company Structure – As part of your growth plan, setting the foundations of what your company needs now, and in the future is paramount for company success.
  8. Business Processes – You cannot run a company without a proper business process in place. You need to explain what to do so staff follows the process preventing costly mistakes like rework.
  9. Finances & Budget – Implementing financial KPIs and budgeting is a must for every company.  The knowledge of how your business financially performs is paramount for success.
  10. SWOT Analysis – This is all about company strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.  Build your business plan and then do the SWOT Analysis every quarter to stay on track.
  11. Business Goals – Set business goals and objectives for the 3, 6, 12, and 2 years with a 3-year vision that is all about planning and executing.  It is the driving force to get things moving.
  12. Executive Summary – Summarising your business plan that incorporates all of the above is the platform for motivation and execution to deliver on your commitments.
