We start by defining a SWOT analysis and its purpose in business strategy. Then, we break down the process into manageable steps, beginning with an internal analysis to identify your business's strengths and weaknesses. We offer practical tips for gathering insights from your team and using data to support your findings.

Key Takeaways:
