This week’s episode of ScaleUp Radio is looking at the vital piece of running your business - planning.
I realise that it’s been difficult to do any kind of planning over the past 12 months or so - but as everyone starts to emerge out of the pandemic, and businesses are starting up again, this is a great time to start planning.
Specifically, we’ll talk about working on your 3-Year Plan
This episode is a replay episode, but the advice in it is just as relevant as when we first published it; in some ways, even more so.
In the episode, you’ll hear from:
- Peter Roper from Family Business Practice
- Giovanni Finocchio from Midven
- Kul Sanghera from Worcestershire Business Central
And we cover some of the big questions around a 3-Year Plan, including:
- Why bother with a 3-year plan for your business?
- It might sound obvious, but how often should you do one? Also, with that in mind, should we also be thinking longer than 3 years ahead?
- What should you be thinking about when you’re putting your 3-Year Plan together - how do you start?
- Who should be involved in forming the plan? And making sure that it’s executed?
- How do you decide when to keep to the plan and, when circumstances change, when to move away from it?
You’ll also hear a few mentions of a poster that was shown at a meeting that was held just before the recording. Something we call the SmartWeb® If you’d like a pdf of copy of it then please email admin@biz-smart.co.uk
It’s a great conversation, covering businesses across the spectrum including family businesses and those seeking venture capital investment - nicely covering most aspects of this important topic in anyone’s scale up journey.
