So, what questions should a well thought through strategic plan address? Here is a template/check list (view template here) for you to have on hand. Sit with your team and discuss your current plan (whether it’s in your head or on paper) and determine which of these questions you have solid answers to and which you still need to work on.

Use time as a friend. Build a strategic plan that is truly valuable to you in helping to build the worth of your business.
