Business Planning
Turn effort into progress
Many owners are flat out but not moving forward. The work that would genuinely improve the business keeps getting pushed aside by day‑to‑day demands. You’re busy, but the business isn’t changing in the way you want it to.
Business planning gives you the space and structure to step back, see the business as a whole, and decide what actually matters. It turns scattered effort into consistent progress.
Who this is for
This is for owners who:
-
feel like they’re always working but not getting ahead
-
want a clearer picture of what success looks like
-
struggle to prioritise because everything feels important
-
keep putting long‑term improvements behind urgent tasks
-
want a plan that’s practical, not theoretical
What we focus on
The aim is to create direction you can actually use, not a beautiful document that sits on a shelf. Together, we work on:
-
defining what success means for you and the business
-
deciding what you will and won’t focus on
-
turning good intentions into a small number of clear priorities
-
setting milestones that help you track progress without adding pressure
How we approach it
We use a simple Now–Where–How structure:
-
Now: A clear picture of where the business is today — what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s wearing you down.
-
Where: A practical vision of where you want the business to be, including how you want it to function and the role you want to play.
-
How: A small number of priorities with milestones and review points, so you know what to work on now and what can wait.
What you can expect
By the end of this work, you’ll have:
-
a clearer picture of what you’re aiming for
-
a small number of priorities that guide your decisions
-
a practical plan you can follow without adding pressure
-
more confidence that your effort is going into the right things
-
a way to review progress without getting bogged down in detail
How we work together
Work is hands-on and focused. We usually combine:
-
short diagnostics
-
structured conversations that cut through the clutter
-
working sessions to map priorities together
-
individual prep work between meetings
Where to start
IIf you’re not sure whether this is the right place to begin, the Business Pressure Diagnostic will help pinpoint where pressure is sitting and what’s most likely to make a difference first.
