4 Ways to Focus on Growing Your Business
I found a great article that tackles four ways to focus on growing your business. Here are some highlights.
You can’t discount luck in business: meeting the right person, a great referral, being in the right place at the right time. But without a little aim or a vision of where you want to go, it’s pretty hard to grow.
1. Create Your Vision
Ask yourself the hard questions: How big do I want my company to be? What is my company known for? What do I want it to be known for? How do I want my employees to feel about their jobs? What industries do we want to work in? What will my role be? What does our everyday workload look like? How do we measure success?
2. Know Where You Stand
Now that you have a vision, you need a detailed map — a plan. To create that, you need to know where you stand today. Having an accurate picture of the current operations and finances will help you determine the next steps to grow your business.
3. Create the Map to Meet Your Vision
Once you know what you’re trying to achieve and understand what’s happening in your business, create the barebones plan. Use the financial reports you’ve gathered to check your margins, grow business within your current clientele and examine your processes.
4. Make Time
Day-to-day business can get in the way of achieving long-term growth goals. As you begin, ensure you have a strategy to keep your vision in focus.
