Business and Strategic Planning
Planning your business future is more than jotting down a few
notes, choosing a legal structure, setting up an e-mail address
and website, and identifying what it is you will offer the market.

It takes deliberate and focused effort in setting forth a strategy
for:

  • Reaching the market,
  • Identifying market channels through which you plan to
    market your products and services,
  • Determining your business model,
  • Identifying your basis of operations or management
    infrastructure,
  • Considering your risks and opportunities
  • Projecting your financials, spend rate, and revenue
    plan,
  • Identifying the results you wish to obtain
  • Setting out goals and objectives
  • And finally engaging in follow through on your plan

All of these require know how and sound tools.  Otherwise you
may experience the Fizzle Effect, that is, burning through your
resources before you gain market presence.
AFB Business Solutions provides
the experience and tools to help you get started and to keep
you on track through a systematic set of tools and periodic
coaching.
The Taxonomy of Business Strategy
Taxonomy n.  The science, laws, or principles of classification.  

No Plan
                         
Poor Strategy
                      
Few if any financial controls
                           
 Management gaps

A sound business strategy has five crucial components without which success could be a dream
that fizzles:

  1. The Picture -         What do you see your business to be?
  2. The Proposition - Where do you see your business?
  3. The Production -  What results do you expect?
  4. The Target -          How will you get to where you want to go?
  5. The Strategy -       What set of strategic initiatives have you identified to reach your
    target?

The science of business is investigating, experimenting, and applying methods for delivering
your product to your customer.  
AFB Business Solutions appropriates the scientific approach
and leaves the creative and skill side to you.
