Business Strategy Fundamentals

Over the years, I have met and worked with literally
hundreds of business
owners. At one time or another, many of them have written
a business
plan. But very few of them have a working business strategy. A
business
plan and a business strategy are two very different tools. A business
plan
normally is prepared for a financing partner, either a bank or an investor.
The purpose of the plan is to let investors know about the business and
its potential for success in order to encourage them to invest in the
business.
A business strategy is quite different. Rather than a document
for investors,
this is a plan for the owner to follow.

a business strategy? If not, click here!:

According to the Office of Advocacy, there are currently
26.8 million
businesses in the U.S. with small businesses representing
99.9
percent of these businesses. Small businesses produce thirteen
times more
patents than their larger competitors in terms of employees
and are twice
as likely to have their patents be in the small one percent
cited each year.
These businesses have a two-thirds survival rate of at
least two years, with
forty-four percent surviving of over four years. With
these statistics, there
is no wonder the number of small businesses is
steadily on the rise.
