I can not believe I actually had time this weekend, but I did. I finished my 2009 business plan. It’s not the formal sort of plan that I normally do for clients, but it’s still chock full of all the useful crap a business plan should be full of.

For those of you who plan to do your own business plan for next year, here is an outline of mine:
f
2009 Goals- this section discusses my 10 major goals for 2009 including:
-monthly income I want to make
-types of clients I want to get
-groups I want to join
-seminars I want to attend and classes I want to take
f
Methods to Madness- this section breaks down each goal, gives the details of the goal and the way I plan to achieve it.
f
2009 Resources to Obtain- this section discusses books, programs, and materials I need to buy.
f
2009 Budget- this section discusses my budget for money spent on materials, classes, etc. and a budget for my time.

Some of the more exciting plans I have for next year are:
-Hiring a maid to come and clean once a month
-In 2009 I’ll be dedicating 1 day a month to working as I will need to when I am a full time freelancer. This means I’ll have to spend about 8 hours writing that day.
-I’m going to develop some brochures and business cards for my direct mail marketing campaign.
f
I am so happy I completed the business plan. I feel much more organized and I feel like I can actually accomplish everything I’ve set out to do.
