The Podiatrist Business Plan
Planning – it’s not for everyone and seems to be one of those ‘chores’ we avoid at all costs.
Yet planning is vitally important and helps a business chart a course for the achievement of its goals.
At the Podiatry Hive, we invest a lot of time in the planning process, because creating a planning habit is one of the greatest predictors of business success.
The planning process helps to review your current ‘status quo’ and to identify what needs to be improved or achieved in the upcoming year.
Planning then involves envisioning the results you want to achieve, and determining the steps necessary to arrive at the intended destination.
The first stage of your business plan is to create a clear idea of what your ideal practice will look like in the future.
This can only be determined by you – your vision should not be informed by what the Podiatrist down the road is doing.
When you have your vision clear, then you start breaking the steps down into chunks … 12 months first, then 90 days, then weekly and daily.
When it comes to planning – it’s a good idea to start your plan with AN ACTION PLAN
- Tackle the 10 and 5 year goals first
- Complete an effective 12 month plan
- Break it back to 90 days
- Then plan out your month and weeks
The Podiatry Hive has many templates, videos and webinars to assist members in the business planning process.
