Strategic Planning & other grow your business routines

Why do most people set up in business? As Michael Gerber said, most businesses start off with an 'entrepreneurial seizure'. Something prompts them to make that major decision. It could be redundancy, feeling unappreciated in your job and thinking you could do it a whole lot better for yourself, feeling that you are working for someone else and they get all the benefits of your hard work or many other circumstances.

For some people, that results in just trading one job for another, where they end up not only doing the job they were good at, but also being their own bookkeeper, salesman, HR person etc., The result is that they work longer hours with more frustration, worry and exhaustion than they ever did when they 'had a job'.

Others are true entrepreneurs, who would like to set out their vision of how they would like their business to be and to write themselves a plan to follow to realise their aspirations; but how to do that?

For most people, they end up too involved with the day to day running of their business and lose sight of the goals they had originally set.
