Seven weeks ago we began a series of podcasts on strategic planning, the backbone of a company. As we mentioned in our first podcast, we define the strategic planning process as having eight steps. So far we have discussed setting corporate goals and objectives, doing product and/or service analysis, industry analysis and target market profiles, competitive analysis SWOT analysis, marketing strategy and tactics. In this, our last podcast on strategic planning we discuss the last two steps in the  process:  Revisiting the Product Plan and Creating an Action Plan.
