This assistant is an introduction to SWBSS helping you to discover a clear vision about how you want your business to be in the future is essential as a first step to designing your business strategy. SW Business Support Solutions works with you to explore your vision and ensure that it is achievable. The vision forms the basis from which your business strategy is created. We spend time looking at opportunities you may not have considered, looking at whether your vision could be expanded or even reduced if it is not achievable in the time frame or budget. With a clear vision, we formulate objectives, also known as goals. These are SMART goals which are specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time bound to ensure that the vision is achieved. Objectives are longer term. With clear objectives, tactics are formulated to achieve the objectives. These are regularly reviewed and altered to meet the objectives as circumstances change. Tactics are short term sequential steps that are required in order to meet the objective. The whole business strategy is a live document which requires regular reviews to ensure it is on track to meet the vision. SW Business Support Solutions will support you in the creation and implementation of your business strategy.
