Gloria Chou Episode 166

Thinking about planning your year and analyzing your business so you can set yourself up for success for the next year? A to-do list is not a plan, so today my guest will show you exactly how to start and make an annual plan that actually sticks and works!

Easy Tips for Crafting an Annual Plan That Boosts Your Business Success

  • Prioritize PR, SEO, email marketing, and social media to support your sales funnel.
  • Begin with measurable goals like revenue growth or audience expansion.
  • Use data to assess successes, failures, and guide future efforts.
  • Limit your focus to 1-3 impactful strategies aligned with your goals.
  • Align initiatives with lead generation, nurturing, conversion, delivery, or retention.
  • Focus on scaling core offerings to build a strong, sustainable foundation.


Planning ahead doesn’t have to be overwhelming—just keep it simple and focused. Whether you’re aiming for more revenue, better leads, or streamlined products, clear goals and sticking to what works can drive big growth. Simplicity scales, so focus on what truly matters and treat your business like a system that thrives with the right care and tools!
