The path to business success isn’t a straight line. It’s a winding, twisting road filled with challenges. If you’re running your business by “winging it”, you may struggle to create that thriving business you’ve always dreamed of. Knowing where you’re going and being intentional about what you do can dramatically impact your ability to survive and thrive. And when your business thrives, it empowers you to live the dream – both professionally and personally.

A business plan is key to getting you on the path to a healthier, thriving business! The idea of a business plan, however, is often met with resistance. Just the mention of it can have business owners cringing and looking for the exit, but that’s because most don’t realize that a plan doesn’t have to be a big, scary, restrictive thing that boxes them in. In fact, the opposite is true.

Having a plan brings clarity, focus, and better results. It can be defined and implemented no matter what stage your business is in, and can either get you unstuck or keep you from getting stuck in the typical cycle of challenges all businesses face. The real beauty of it is that it doesn’t have to be the huge undertaking most business owners fear, as today’s guest, Aaron Montgomery of MontCo Consulting, makes clear.
