How to Create a Strategic Plan... and Stick to It!

It's hard to step away from the ongoing, day-to-day challenges of running a business.

On top of that, developing a strategic plan to guide you through the next 12 months is a daunting task. (Where do you even begin?!)

Because of these challenges, many business owners just never get around to writing that plan, year after year. They stay heads-down managing the business without ever pausing to look ahead and set some goals.

And they do OK, so they don't worry about it too much...

But are you really running a business just to do OK? What if you could be doing amazing? What if you could be doing 2X or 3X or 5X more business than you ever thought possible?

Ed and Bill, our webinar hosts, say it is possible—and it's just one of the many benefits of working from a plan you set & evaluate each year.
