Happy Friday! Let's talk about planning. 💼📝

Writing a business plan can be quite complex, especially in the early stages of your business. In my opinion, it's crucial to establish a business plan with a clear vision and a well-defined strategy.

I'd love to hear our Forums community's thoughts on this:

- What do you think are the essential elements of a successful business plan ?

- How important is it for a new business to have a well-defined plan from the start, versus evolving the plan as the business progresses?

- When crafting a business plan, do you advocate for simplicity or do you prefer a more ambitious and detailed approach?

Personally, I firmly believe that having any plan is better than none at all. A plan provides direction and helps maintain accountability. I'm looking forward to hearing different perspectives from our community!

Listing Lounge: Button Cell Batteries, what's all the fuss? We have had a lot of contacts regarding getting listings reviewed by the compliance team, so I wanted to share more information with you and follow up on our news post.

Learn more here.

There were a lot of great discussions happening in our last post about Search Suppression and how to fix a listing when it has been suppressed.
