333: Planning For 2022

 

 

The year 2021 is coming to a close, but it’s not the time to check out.  It’s the time when you should be planning for 2022. However, some entrepreneurs don’t even try to strategize their business for the coming year, they just wing it.

In this episode, Samantha and Tim talk about the importance of generating a business plan before you start the next year. For your plan to be truly effective, you need to begin by looking back and reflecting on the year you’ve had.

It’s essential to look at the business data and recognize what went well, what needs to change, and what you can continue with for the following year. By knowing this information, you are able to carefully plan your business strategies.

We also talk about setting a theme for the coming year. Having a theme in place makes it easier to categorize every decision or change. You will be able to determine if your actions are aligned with your theme and company’s goals.

Have you laid out your business plans for next year? If not, listen in as Samantha and Tim chat about how they plan in their respective businesses.
