Planning for People Who Hate Business Plans
Over 90% of micro-businesses don’t have a business plan – and it shows. In a recent survey of 157 home based businesses there was a huge income/profit gap between those who had a business plan and those who didn’t.
Are you allergic to business plans?
Would you rather spend days in childbirth than write a business plan?
You know you need a business plan but feel overwhelmed when you google it – there’s so much out there and it’s all so confusing and you don’t know how to apply it to your business?
Do you feel as if you’re working your butt off and business isn’t growing?
Business Plans were originally a record of what you intended your business to achieve, your reasons for being in business, your goals and how you planned to achieve them.
Over time, business plans have grown to be huge, bulky, 50+ page tomes of legalese, facts and figures that only a banker or venture capitalist could love. Once they’re written they’re thrown in a dark drawer and never looked at again.
Why? Because they don’t relate to the day to day running of your business. They don’t make life easier for you, they don’t help you with organisation, and they don’t help get ideas out of your head and into reality.
There is a better way!
Our Two Hour Business Plan helps you create a road map leading to the business you want. It guides you step by step through creating a simple business plan that relates to YOUR business, YOUR goals, YOUR reasons for being in business.
- takes only two or three pages
- Clarifies precisely who you’re marketing to and how you can help them
- Eliminates the confusion, overwhelm and that “what on earth am I supposed to be doing?” feeling.
- Simple and easy to put together. No blood, sweat or tears required.
- Will change your life, turn your children into geniuses, solve global warming and negotiate world peace. Ok, not really, but you’ll sure feel better!
- Is a dynamic document, designed to be used constantly and is easy to change and update as your business grows 
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I REALLY need a business plan? Do you have a Business Plan? Yes and Yes. I ran my first business for years without a business plan – it was all ‘in my head’. Then I became a Coach and ran my Coaching business for a couple of years without a business plan. Those years were awful. And the business was failing.
I tried to write a business plan. I took all the ideas that were bouncing around in my head and put them on paper. Organised them. Rewrote them. Googled “business plan” and read every book I could find on the subject. I crashed and burned badly because nothing seemed to fit the structure of my micro business – everything seemed written for big businesses, with lots of employees, and loans, and investors and all the rest of the stuff I didn’t have.
It took months for me to work out what I really needed in a business plan. I didn’t need all the corporate sounding jargon and legal disclaimers, I needed a business plan that would guide me in the day to day running of my business. And finally I created one. Business took off.
It wasn’t an instant explosion of profit, it was a steady and constant stream of increase with a strong foundation and structure behind it. I’ve spent the last few years honing and fine-tuning the process for both myself and my clients.
How is the Two Hour Business Plan delivered? It’s an instantly downloadable course consisting of two audio files and a pdf workbook. Plus some great bonuses – check them out below.
Can I really make a business plan in just two hours? Yes and no. The audio’s are around 45 minutes each. The workbook will take as long as it takes. You certainly can do it in two hours, but I’d suggest spending a bit more time to review it and make sure it’s what you really want.
Can I take this to the bank for funding? No, that’s not the point of the Two Hour Business Plan. The aim of this is to develop a plan that gets you moving in the direction you want to go and gives you a roadmap to follow. A plan that has action and motivation behind it, not pages of forecasts and figures that are used by the bank and not by you.
The reality is that most micro and at-home businesses are bootstrapping (meaning they have to earn the money as they go, to invest into their business) and they never go to the bank for funding. They need an action plan, not a funding plan.
I’m just starting out – do I really need one now? The best time to plan is at the beginning! Getting your business started on the right foot is way easier than bringing it back on track later. Start out right and you’ll start out strongly (and you won’t have a mess to clean up later).

What people say about working with us:
Here’s some comments from previous clients who’ve worked with us previously:
Working with Melinda gave me confidence in the service that I provide and helped me to grow by stepping out of my comfort zone. Coaching with SuperWAHM has been awesome. I have been able to move forward in my business and no longer feel stuck or feel as if I have no where to turn.
Every entrepreneur needs to have a coach on their team.
Felicia Pratt, Online Business Manager
Mel has a very gentle yet effective way of questioning, clarifying and exploring an individual’s situation…..sharing her experience in the area of setting up and running a home based business and was able to call upon her years of both Coaching and Business Building to allow me move towards the goals I identified.
I have found Mel’s insights and support invaluable especially as she keeps me focussed on the next step in taking my Business forward
David Boa, Life Coach
You’d be pleased to know that I’m in the middle of following your Quick N’ Dirty Biz Plan. I opened up a Formal Business Plan to use as a template and I promptly got overwhelmed and frustrated. So, I went back to the Quick-N-Dirty one and it helped me clarify my ideas and really start putting my thoughts on paper.
A big difference …. between a “Business Plan” and what I need, is that a BP is too broad and too detailed for my initial idea AND it’s too focused on complex financials which I have no need/desire/training/time to tackle right now. I’m bootstrapping my microbusiness, I’m not applying for venture capital.
Marina Brito, Real Estate Entrepreneur and Author
I was surprised with the efficiency and accuracy with which Melinda helped me to identify what my dreams for life were. Melinda, it was encouraging how you communicated, with your attitude, that you believed in my dreams. That alone made you a safe person with which to explore and expose vulnerable and budding dreams.
