Most business owners plan their day-to-day operations, but do not have a strategic plan. They operate their businesses from a constant place of reaction. A strategic business plan can help your business to survive and grow in the ever-changing business environment in which you operate. It gives more detailed direction and ensures that your business is going in the desired general direction. This plan should focus on the improvement of your business’ performance by identifying and exploiting opportunities, dealing with threats, and continually improving market share and profitability. #J-18808-Ljbffr
