Have you ever felt like someone looking for Waldo/Wally when it comes to your business plan? Has your business plan been missing or you just couldn’t figure out how to organize your business just like it is when someone is trying to figure out “Where’s Waldo/Wally“?

Just to explain for those who don’t know about “Where’s Waldo/Wally”, it is a book that has pages of different images which contain tiny people doing various things. The whole object is to find Waldo/Wally amoung all of the tiny people in the image. The image to the right is a sample of what a page might look like.

Now how does this apply to a business plan? Glad you ask. Below are a few things that you can relate to the process of developing or figuring out your business plan.

• Fix the small thing. Sometimes the smallest or tiniest thing may be stopping you from figuring out your business plan. Such as, what you should include in your business plan. Here is a resource that can help you: Entrepreneur.com – Business Planning
• Investing time. Do this to figure out what works and doesn’t work is important to your business planning. Start with a to-do list because it helps you quickly identify the key things that you need to work on for your business.
• Finding the uniqueness (like finding Waldo/Wally). Being able to make your business standout so it can be found by potential clients is a way that you can make your business unique. Branding your business is important so being able to brand your business with a logo, or a catch-phrase, or a specific service/product offering is important to your business planning.
