The Power of Business Planning


The Power of Business Planning 

The best businesses don’t just happen; they are meticulously planned, developed and executed. 

When running a business, it’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day operations. But taking the time to create a comprehensive business plan is an essential element of success. A well-thought-out business plan can be the difference between achieving your goals and falling short. Here are three reasons why business owners should always make time for business planning. 


Reason #1: Establishing Clear Goals 

Having clear goals and objectives for your business is the first step in creating a successful plan. By establishing long-term and short-term goals that are both achievable and measurable, you can ensure that everyone involved in your company is working towards the same end goal. It also helps to define specific deadlines for reaching those goals, giving everyone involved motivation to work harder and smarter. 


Reason #2: Managing Resources 

Having a clear plan in place makes it easier to manage resources such as money, staff, and other assets more effectively. Having an understanding of where resources should be allocated gives you more control over their use, allowing you to make better decisions about where resources should be used most efficiently. This can save time and money in the long run as well as providing clarity into any areas which may require additional investment or attention in order to reach goals set out in the plan. 

                         

Reason #3: Making Informed Decisions 

Finally, having a comprehensive plan allows you to approach decisions with more confidence. With clearly defined goals and objectives, it’s easier to make decisions about how best to move forward without fear of making mistakes or wasting resources. You’ll be able to quickly assess any potential investments or new initiatives and determine whether they fit with your overall vision for your business' growth and success. 


Business planning should never be overlooked when running a small business—it’s essential for long-term success! Taking the time to create a comprehensive plan will ensure that everyone involved in your venture understands what needs to be done in order for it to reach its full potential. An effective business plan will establish clear objectives, manage resources more efficiently, and provide informed decision making skills so that all tasks are completed efficiently and effectively.


With all these benefits it’s clear why business planning is so important for any small business owner looking for success! Start planning today!

#hashtag and @tag

Are you confused between #hastag or @tags ? Here is some clarifications: On Facebook, Instagram and Twitter , the pound sign (or hash) turns any word or group of words that directly follow it into a searchable link.  This allows you to organise content and track discussion topics based on those keywords. So, if you wanted to post about social media for example, you would include #socialmedia  in your post to join the conversation.  You can click on a hashtag to see all the posts that mention the subject in real time. @Tagging people in social media photos can extend the reach of those photos, which is likely why some of us want to tag everyone and their brother – so to speak.  !!! But be careful with tagging people who are not actually in the photo. It could be considered spam or at least annoying. !!! only tag people in photos – no matter the network (Instagram, Facebook and Twitter all allow it) – when people are actually in them. Hope these clarifications help 😎😎😎 Keep it real !
