Business growth can be perceived as something scary, but when you have a plan and it’s done right, it can be very motivating and rewarding. Start with what you know and build on it. #businessgrowth
Growth doesn’t need to mean more risk, more hours and more headaches.
It may be as simple as identifying where the opportunities for growth are in your business and industry. Once you've done this you can establish what you and your team are going to have to do in order to maximise these opportunities, and how you will navigate the likely obstacles.
Here are a couple of tips to get you thinking about growth:
Do an audit to document your growth over time. Analyse all the information you have to understand how you got to where you are right now. This will help you to plan for future growth.
Next, put a one page plan together with the big objectives and what you’ll realistically need to do in order to achieve them. Break this down into quarters, identifying the actions, who’s going to do it and when.
Establish some key performance indicators to keep the momentum up and visit these regularly (either monthly or quarterly) to ensure you’re on track.
Do what you say you are going to do! Find someone to hold you accountable for your plan. It’s great to make a plan BUT without regular accountability, you’ll be able to let things slide.
As a business owner, you can get bogged down in the demands of day-to-day business. Taking time out of the business can give you some much needed perspective. We can help build your business plan and identify the steps you’ll need to achieve it.
