Self reflect - what do you need to do, how much will it cost, what are you long term plans for your business? are you staying small, will you go large

Include current earnings and potential earnings after the improvements. What your long term plan is. Have you got children that will be going to school so earnings could increase. What you plan to invest any money in and how this could benefit your business.
