Strategic and Tactical Planning
Strategic planning involves setting up a strategy that your business is going to follow over a defined time period. It involves
- analyzing your business history,
- comparing it with industry averages and trends,
- setting goals,
- developing strategies to reach your goals,
- developing action plans for implementing each strategy and
- monitoring plan implementation.

Success Stories
- An internet company had eight owners and even more visions of growth. SBA developed a strategic plan that refocused the company’s long-term strategy and directed marketing and resource development to two specific niche growth markets. The result: the company raised more than twice the working capital needed to achieve success.
- Being in the right place at the right time has always been tied to getting the big deal, the new job, etc. However, more often than not, getting the big deal and growing your company comes from proper planning. A client wanted to grow their product line but was not sure how to do it with their competitors already in the market. SBA helped them design a plan that allowed them to bring in inventory while quietly letting the consumers know they were carrying the new product. Slowly, their customer base grew and the competition did not realize what was happening until it was to late.
