What I find great about the form above used for measuring and writing the milestones for the planning process to make it real and actualized is the ability to customize the form. For example, a business may not have as many managers but use teams and a start and ending date could be placed on the top label instead of a Planned date. The idea is to at least keep track in some form of the steps (milestones) that are real action activities on the part of the business planner. This is great information for any business to have; thanks for the information.

You can create milestones in Excel or Visio. I prefer Excel as it is easier to implement and manipulate if the milestones change which they almost certainly will. You should use the cells as perioid times and diamonds as the main milestones.

I like this. I always wanted to put down smaller sounding things (typically named as ‘actions’ or ‘tasks’) as milestones….hardly anywhere I could find a similar thought and wondered whether I was wrong.

Both Bplan and Mplan contain a lot of valuable information. I am in the process of writing a business plan for an internet based business and have found the examples very helpful. thx

The trick is to not let the “Milestones” turn into “Millstones”.
