Do you know where your business will be in five or 10 years? You should. Unfortunately, entrepreneurs and business managers are often so preoccupied with immediate issues that they lose sight of their ultimate objectives. That’s why a business review or preparation of a strategic plan is a vital necessity. Strategic business planning allows companies to make decisions on allocating resources in order to pursue short-term and long-term goals. A sound strategic plan should:

• Serve as a framework for decisions or for securing support/approval
• Provide a basis for more detailed planning
• Explain the business to others in order to inform, motivate and involve
• Assist benchmarking & performance monitoring
• Stimulate change and become a building block for the next plan

The advantages of having financial experts involved in your business strategy planning are endless. Every business goal typically requires some sort of expenditure. Among other components, the strategic plan will include projected financial plans in order to effectively predict or prevent upcoming problems.
