What's your Vision for the Future
Planning
Every business, no matter how small, needs a vision for the future. Vision is simply about making a statement of what your business will be and when it will be achieved. Without vision a business will continue to move in a direction that lacks definition and you stand a greater chance of then ending end up in the wrong place.
An effective vision statement is a clear statement of what you strive for your business to be and when it will be achieved, eg: “Profit Advantage will be a nationally recognised virtual business information service by December 2008”.
You’ll note that our vision defines the market (nationally recognised), establishes the service or product (virtual information service) and sets the timeframe (by December 2008). Once the Vision has been established, then your annual Business Plan should be developed as the yearly road map to achieve your longer term vision.
