Planning for business growth

Formulating a business growth strategy

Orchard can lead a thorough and controlled process to assist you in setting the strategic direction of your business. Too many businesses launch into business planning without undertaking this fundamental stage of strategic growth planning.

Strategic business planning

Again, in a controlled process we can assist you in developing your plan and we involve your management team if appropriate and train them as necessary in strategic business planning. The output is a well-presented plan which can be the basis for detailed financial budgeting and forecasting, and so for managing your business or raising finance.

Financial forecasting and budgeting

We work with you and your team to prepare a detailed but manageable business growth plan which you can use to manage your business and hold your team accountable against. We can also assist you in developing monthly reporting to enable this strategic plan to be a live one, rather than one which sits in a drawer once it's approved.
