Why A Strategic Business Blue Print Is Worth The Investment

With only 50% of businesses surviving beyond year five, the odds are stacked against new ventures. Yet among those that do succeed, 70% cite having a strong business as a key factor—and many founders invest thousands of dollars of their own money to make it happen. These numbers make one thing clear: a strategic business plan isn’t just paperwork—it’s a survival tool. Investing in a solid plan upfront can be the difference between thriving and folding.
