This publication takes you through a practical process of understanding your motivations, goals and values so as to achieve success in your own terms. It also helps you understand your competitive advantage in relation to competitors and how to create a feasible business strategy. Characteristics are evaluated in terms of strengths and weaknesses using the PRIMEFACT checklist. Opportunities and threats are identified through an external analysis using the ICEDRIPS checklist. A Unique Business Formula is then devised, taking into account organisational structure, market segmentation, financial forecasts, business risks and a range of other factors.
