What one top tip would you give to a business owner embarking on a growth plan?

A good business plan is key. Putting your plans on paper serves two key purposes:

• It challenges you to accurately reflect the strengths and opportunities for your business, often helping a business owner to assess areas for improvement and manage future plans.
• Acts as a guide to your business for potential funders, representing the business in an accurate and accessible manner.

It is important that a business plan is realistic and reflects the business’ history, current trading and strategy going forward.
