Desmond,
IMHO the best business plan tracks what you can control. Better to plan activities you control than outcomes that may be outside of your control.

My business plan is constantly being evaluated to see if it needs to be tweaked! It keeps me on track and allows me to make changes if needed. Yes it works for me. You need a measurement on your productivity which when detailed out helps in in choosing where your advertising dollars will be spent.
