At the end of the day, our business plan, once we finished it, is the operating tool for growing our business. It helps us manage what we do in our business. It helps us manage how we achieve success.
The business plan identifies what we need to be doing. It identifies when we need to do it by, what resources we need, plus gives us tools and a framework for measuring the effectiveness of the results.
By developing and using a business plan, we move ever closer to achieving our ultimate goals for running a business.
In this series, we will be looking at this idea of why just having a business plan is not enough. We'll look at five reasons why your business plan will fail.

Business Plan Failure #5 Nothing is Measured
Grow Your Business
01/07/21 • 11 min
Why do so many businesses fail? Our fifth reason for business plan failure is that Nothing Gets Measured.
We've discovered that what you measure gets done. If you're measuring things, people do them. What you measure gets done.
We want to get the results we need and make sure that our actions are getting the results that we desire. We need to measure the results of our actions so that we can determine if our business plan has been effective in growing our business profitably.
It is common knowledge that many businesses don't survive past their first three years. For many, a lack of planning is the key reason leading to their business failure. Fail to plan equals plan to fail.

Business Plan Failure #4 No Accountability
Grow Your Business
01/07/21 • 9 min
Why do so many businesses fail? Our fourth reason for why business plans fail is No Accountability.
You need to have an external party that you're accountable to. Somebody that is going to call you on the excuses that you might come up with for not doing things. Someone who is going to ask you to explain why you haven't done the actions you have committed to.
