But how often do you look at or refer to your business plan? Frankly, I think they are good if you are looking for funding or you have more than a hand full of employees who need "direction", but we are just two guys and we know exactly the market we are going after. And even at the large companies I worked for in the past, the business plan was dated about 3 days after the ink dried. IMHO, consulting is probably one of the last businesses that needs a business plan.
