Most of us can just photocopy our personal resolution list from last year:
- Get in better shape
- Stop and smell the roses
- Take up a hobby
- Stick to the diet
- . . .
But have you ever made a business resolution list? Maybe there are a few of you running small businesses that absolutely hit it of the park last year, congratulations, you're in the minority.
For the rest of us we could use a little time for reflection and even dust off the ol' business plan. Remember a business plan is SUPPOSED to fucntion as a dynamic document, evolving to account for the current and future climate of business. Think of it as your Constitution that has its own Amendments.
What can you improve on as a business owner?
- Participating in a network group?
- Researching & adopting the latest technological improvements for your industry?
- Implementing a customer excellence plan (don't stop at satisfying customers- reach to exceed expectations)
- More meaningful and frequent solicitation from employees about ideas
- Learning how new media and technologies on the web can benefit your growth. EVERY business can/should participate online because that's where your customers are.
- Anything else???
Don't miss this perfect opportunity over the next couple of weeks to make those resolutions.
Thin your waistline and fatten your bottom line.
