Sometimes All It Takes is a
Second Set of Eyes
When I speak before an audience of
business owners I usually ask

“By a show of
hands, how many of
you have a
Business Plan?”
Usually half of the hands go up.
Then I ask

“For those with your
hands up, how many
of you have it in
writing?”
About half of those hands go down.
And I follow that up with

“And finally, for those
with your hands still
up, how many of you
have updated it in
the past year?”
About half of the hands left go down.
So our strategy team started thinking.
“Instead of an all-or-nothing
approach, what if there was a
simple way to help Business
Owners by becoming a second
set of eyes?
What if we could review their
existing Business Plan and give
them feedback … to poke holes
in what they already have?”
And an idea was born!
