I know a woman who left a lucrative (though unrewarding) job and moved to another city to pursue her dream of opening her own business.
After a particularly bad day at the office, and one more frustrating episode with a miserable boss, she ducked out early, drove home, dropped down on the sofa and turned on Oprah.
During that show, Oprah said the magic words: “Do what you love and the money will follow.”
The woman quit her job the next day. On hope alone, within a month, she sold her home, moved and opened her business.
Trouble is, the money didn’t follow.
I know a lot of women entrepreneurs who do what they love, and the money hasn’t followed.
At the risk of getting on Oprah’s bad side, I think there’s a lot more to running a successful business than, “Do what you love and the money will follow.”
So what’s the answer? It’s not magic and it’s not complicated. You absolutely, positively, unequivocally must have a plan.
Time after time, research has proved that entrepreneurs who engage in strategic planning are more profitable and more successful than those who do not.
One simple thing stops most women entrepreneurs from creating a strategic plan: they don’t know how.
That’s exactly why I created my new e-course.
Strategic Planning Made Simple
It’s not magic. It’s common sense, step by step instructions on:
- Who should participate
- When to plan and how often
- What questions to ask and answer
- How to define and measure goals
- What to track and measure
- How to use your plan to get better results
And there’s more! You’ll get three easy-to-use planning templates. Half the work is done for you! (Okay, I’m exaggerating…not half — but the templates DO save you hours of time and energy.)
Strategic planning has so many benefits that entire books are written on the subject. Here are the top three:
- you’ll take control of your future
- you’ll identify and prioritize opportunities
- you’ll make better decisions about how to spend your time and money
Please don’t be like the women who, on hope alone, risked her financial security with no planning and believed the money would magically follow.
