Different from classic business planning, the strategic variety (incorporating acquisition, exit and other strategic activities) involves a long term horizon and out-of-the-box thinking. A strategic acquisition plan helps to provide direction and focus. It points to specific and rapid business growth plans with results that are to be achieved and establishes a course of action for achieving them.
