But one thing you forgot to mention is that you must update and/or change your business plan as time goes on. My wife and I have run our own business for years. And we had a business plan but what we didn’t plan for in it was the economic turn our country has undergone. Our business was struggling for the last two years, so we went back to our business plan as reference……sort of like a starting point. Then we realized we didn’t address how to earn profits under such circumstances in it. Once we did that then the profits started flowing again. So if you haven't looked at your business plan lately, then it is time to give it a second look. Cheryl,
