ANN ARBOR – To help the leaders of Michigan’s small businesses as they prepare their strategies for 2010, Phimation Strategy Group will offer a webinar on October 30 and again on November 13 to highlight the five trends that small business leaders need to be aware of in planning for the coming year.
�??Most small businesses focus their strategic planning efforts on their internal priorities, and do not give the attention that they should to outside forces. This is a problem today, as the external environment shifts dramatically, and is surprising since strategic planning usually has an impact of hundreds of thousands of dollars on a Stage 2 business,�?� said Dave Haviland, Principal of Phimation.
�??Small business leaders can and should take the market insight from this webinar and talk about it with their teams while they plan for 2010.�?�
Concurrent with the webinar, Phimation will launch its new Stratiphi – Market Trends service that provides affordable, customized market-trend insight for Stage two businesses to use in their strategic planning activities.
To identify the most important market forces, Phimation has reviewed more than 1,000 trends from over a dozen sources, and used its experience with Michigan small businesses to select the most important ones.
Phimation, a management consultant for small businesses, has led dozens of strategic planning sessions over the last eight years for Stage two companies.
Participants can sign up for the webinar from the Sign Up link on the Information Center page of Phimation�??s web site at Phimation.Com
