Business & Strategic Plans

Cathedral Consulting Group, LLC, assists organizations in developing their strategies and business plans. Every business needs a strategy. The strategy points to where the business is going. Setting a target creates the potential that the target will be achieved, whereas no target means often nothing is achieved. Strategy also provides the framework for focus. Strategy says what the business will do and will not do. The avoidance of opportunities that are not on strategy, enables the allocation of available time and resources to those efforts that are on strategy, maximizing the potential of achieving the targets.

Business plans are the systematic setting down of the steps to implement the strategy. The steps included responding to market issues, such as competitors, product placement, and customer responses and operating costs. A key aspect to a good business plan is the financial model. The financial model allows the plan to have life, to be seen in the economic results it can produce. The financial model then becomes the framework for the annual budgets. Annual budgets become connected to the strategy through the financial model of the business plan.
