Owning a business is like looking into a mirror — it will mirror back ALLLLL the characteristics about you, both good and bad. On today’s episode of The Power in Purpose Podcast, we’re talking about the 5 things a business plan will reveal about your business.

I know what your thinking: writing a business plan is not high on your list of things to do. You're probably asking yourself, what's the point of writing a business plan? I know what I want for my business, and I'm working toward my dreams/goals/aspirations every single day.
It's true. You've gotten this far in your business WITHOUT a business plan. No one can take that away from you. But imagine, just for a second, what you could accomplish if you wrote down a strategy for your business?
Did you know that people who write down their goals are 42% more likely to achieve them? The same principle can be applied to strategies for your business — sales strategies, marketing strategies, growth strategies– they’re all the same in that when you develop these areas on paper, you’re much more likely to see them through to success.
What is a business plan? A business plan is an overarching strategy for the who, what, how, when and most importantly, the why. Which is why we’re all here and why YOU listen to this podcast. You take strategies you would have in business: your ideal clients, marketing, sales, competitive analysis… and you map out a plan for them.
It's really quite simple. And in today's episode, I'm sharing the 5 things a business plan will reveal about your business. I'm going to walk you through my philosophy about business plans, share the 5 strategies it will reveal, and give you tips on how to jumpstart the process.
