In this popular episode of How to Run a Successful Business and Still Have a Life, Stacey dives into one of her favourite topics: creating a powerful vision for your business. Building on last week’s episode about discovering your why, this conversation explores how a clear vision can guide your company, inspire your team, and create meaningful impact in your community.

Stacey walks through the essential questions every business owner should ask when crafting a vision statement — including what inspired the business, who it serves, what makes it special, and the long-term difference it aims to make. She also breaks down her simple five-step structure for writing a strong and effective vision:
Who is doing it? What are they doing? Who are they doing it for? How are they doing it? And what is the ultimate impact?

Using her own business, Port Macquarie Performing Arts, as an example, Stacey demonstrates how a vision goes far beyond what you do — it communicates the transformation you create and how you want your customers to feel long after they’ve worked with you.

Listeners are encouraged to reflect, write, and refine their own business vision using Stacey’s downloadable worksheet. This episode is a must-listen for anyone wanting clarity, purpose, and direction in their business.
