Business Planning Principles - Part V

In this series, we’re talking about principles for business planning.

• The final principle in our series is this: Good planning requires wise counsel.

A friend of mine has successfully started multiple businesses over the years, all in different industries. Once I asked him how he has been able to succeed in so many different businesses.

He told me that any time he is going to start a new business, he finds out who the best leaders in the industry are and he spends time with them. He said it’s remarkable how many are willing to share their wisdom.

Proverbs 15:22 teaches, "Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed."

If you want to develop a great business plan, seek to acquire lots of wise counsel.
