What is G.O.S.P.A.?

G.O.S.P.A is a strategy planning technique I was turned on by an industry friend and I thought it was a really great concept. G.O.S.P.A. is an acronym and it refers to Goals, Objectives, Strategies, Plans/ Priorities, and Actions.

GOALS – What are your BIG GOALS for the next year? You should have about three of these.  Where do you want to be in the next year? The next 5 years? These are your goals. Goals are BIG!

OBJECTIVES – These are the things that MUST BE ACCOMPLISHED to achieve those goals. 3-4 objectives per goal is key. 

STRATEGIES – Strategies are methods you are going to use to accomplish the objectives on the way to your goals. 

PLANS/PRIORITIES– Throughout the planning process, you must know what things you will do first, what you need to do second, and so forth. Plans/Priorities are the specific elements of the strategy to move along in your objectives. 

ACTIONS – Actions are the day to day duties and are specific details of a plan to ultimately achieve your goals. 

After the year we all just had, in our own individual ways, this is a great concept to help you plan big for 2021. My main goals are to build up Fresh Home Loan Inc., gain more market share, recruit retail loan officers, show them a brand new life of happiness and freedom, and spend more time with the wife and kids doing STUFF!
