Strategy, growth and resilience

Where the business goes next, and what could stop it: a market position, an advantage a competitor cannot easily copy, cost against differentiation, a focus and the substitutes customers already have, and the world outside the business; measurable goals, leading measures, conditional forecasts, sensitivity, scenarios, decision break-even, opportunity and sunk cost; growth constraints, growth cash, equipment against people against price, economies of scale, a second product, choosing a location and testing a second one; scaling quality, standards, motivating and leading a team, and deciding not to grow; and risk, insurance limits, records, security, tools, continuity, a business plan and pitch, and a strategy decision. Five US small businesses, their figures drawn fresh on every attempt.
