The Top 3 Reasons Your Business Isn’t Hugely Successful
If you want to know how to get those important projects out, then you need to avoid making these 3 mistakes (at all costs).
Mistake #1: Time Manages You.
Does this sound like you?
-You work hard to provide the best for your clients.
-You always want to undersell and overdeliver. (And this all takes time).
-You're a great problem solver and you’re always available.
-You're hands on and proud of it!
-You scan your emails constantly, making sure there are no fires to put out.
How is any of this a bad thing?
Because you're reacting, instead of being proactive.
You don’t have a plan of execution to get your work or bigger projects out and done!
Mistake #2: Chasing Software Solutions
A tool can ONLY save you time when you have an effective plan in place.
Think about it like this - if you gave me power tools, that wouldn’t save me time building a house. I don't have the skill set!
Here's the thing...
you're wasting valuable time chasing technology and software solutions.
We've all been there!
Big promises are made that once you get past the learning stage...
everything will pretty much take care of itself.
But it doesn't and then you're on to the next thing…
trying to make up for even more time!'
It's a never ending search that moves you further away from your goal.
What you need is...strategies in place that get your work done!!
Think of it like a high performing athlete…
Does their gear help? Yes- for sure!
but without their skill set, expensive equipment doesn't do anything.
Mistake #3: Thinking You're Unique
It's tempting to think our situation is different, or special but it's not.
In fact, Anything done at a high level of excellence comes down to business.
Think about it...
-musicians
-athletes
-film makers
And all these businesses deal with time management like every other business in the world.
In fact, some have deadlines that we would never want.
There is no moving the Olympics because you caught the flu!
Your business is built on the same principles as every other business.
The players may change but the game is the same.
Believing you're different, limits your potential and growth more than you understand.
Thinking your "almost there" is the anthem of the small business person.
If you want your business to truly reach its potential then you need to have strategies in place that can accelerate your growth!
Wait!
-You've been in business for a few years now,
-and you're successful but you want to be MORE successful?
-you have big dreams so you assume they require big hours ( all my clients think that).
-But, they don’t!
Honestly! They just require a proven strategy!
