What Is the Paper Brains Business Plan?

  • 5-Year Plan: Year-by-year milestones  

Why Integrate It with the Hustler Planner?

The Hustler Planner (also called the Entrepreneur Planner) excels at breaking big goals into daily, weekly, and monthly tasks. By layering your Paper Brains Business Plan into it, you ensure:

  • Alignment: Every to-do ties back to your long-term vision.

  • Accountability: Regular check-ins keep you on track.

  • Clarity: Clear milestones for Year 1 through Year 5.

Step 1: Gather Your Materials

  1. Print the Paper Brains Business Plan PDF.

  2. Open your Hustler Planner to the business-plan section (often in the front).

Step 2: Transfer Core Sections

  1. Company Overview → Vision Board

    • Write your Mission and Vision on the planner’s vision page.

  1. Year 1 Goals → Annual Goals Section
