Are you sick of reading boring, lengthy, jumbled business planning books that do little to actually help owners succeed in business? So am I! Which is the reason I wrote this book. My strategic planning book cuts to the chase and just helps You write the plan. It's not hype, it's not a lot of flowery reading, it's just the work itself. And it's designed to serve the business owner's NEED. It's a writable workbook featuring a cool, manageable, hands-on activity after each short, to the point, chapter. If you're reading this you need something that won't waste your time, but instead return it to you in spades. My offer is to get You through a planning session in as little as a weekend if You are hell bent on finishing, and within a short month as a side project if simply focused, with the potential for immediate implementation upon completion. Because, I want to help you succeed!
Sarah Joy is a self-made sole proprietor who got her start by selling blogging and marketing services to small business owners in her then local town of Olympia Washington. That morphed into strategic marketing planning and eventually into operational planning, as well. At some point she noticed consistencies in the places small business owners were struggling, and that lead to the birth of the planning process that you can now find in this book. She's helped a myriad of over 4 dozen businesses in her time as a consultant and continues to seek out new and challenging clients. When she is not busy working, as a true Pacific Northwest native she can be found outside rain or shine enjoying natures slopes or trails or waterways.
