Plan for Success (PART 3)


An entrepreneur who plan to set up a business and want to grow the business a million times bigger in the first year of operation, this plan is difficult to achieve because it is practically not feasible. It takes more than twelve calendar months to grow a business from a shop to a conglomerate.

To grow your business or start one, the first year known as the foundation year usually involves a lot of commitment, resources and investment. Trying to put processes and business structures in place and ensuring free flow of business activities. Most business owners expect little or no profit in the foundation year but if you can get it right at this point, you can be rest assured that your business will be around for a long time and growing strong.

Findings shows that most private business hit the rock before they reach the five years mark, especially in this part of the world where people jump into businesses because its in vogue and not because they have a definite plan on how to be successful at it. So it’s not enough to have money to rent an office space or shop where your profit in a year can’t even pay the rent subsequently.

Effective planning is an important part of every business or project success, your plan should be well thought out, written down and explicit enough for you to comprehend at any time. Your plan often serves as a reference, guides you on your journey of success and helps you retrace your steps.
