Doing business can be quite tricky at times, most especially if you’re new in it. However, a simple rule may even out the chances of you and your business into succeeding and making it in the large market: focus on what’s important and farm out the rest.
What/Who IS important? Here’s the list:
1. Consumers
Consumers are your business’s link to sustainability and mortality. Simply put, consumers are your business’s make or break. Having this in mind, all businesses should put consumers first, above all things.
2. Investors
Investors are important because they back up businesses, in most cases. Having investors mean that your company is doing well, thus, you strive to continually do good for you and your investor, as well.
3. Partners
Business partners can range from anyone of your suppliers to your employees. They are important parts of the business cycle because they are your backbone; without them to help you and provide you with their services, your business will be for naught.
4. Quality
They say quality beats quantity, and this is mostly true. What will you do with so many businesses that provide mediocre service when you have one that is basically ruling the world? Quality should never be taken lightly because it will determine how far you and your company will go. Your market is not unintelligent, they know and will look for quality, so provide the best you can.
5. How you do business
How you transact is important because this is how others will view you, this is how consumers will learn and want to do business with you. Are your transactions clean, simple, straightforward and consumer-centered? If yes, then consider yourself successful. How you do business not only reflects your company’s profile but all the more, it projects how you see yourself as an important part of the trade industry.
hey, I’m Kim + I am ridiculously passionate about helping you to work smarter and not harder + to realize how freaking amazing you actually are, exactly as you are and how easy business really can be when you are in alignment + simplify + add systems to organize your business + plan your business growth. I’ve been geeking out about online business, online marketing + systems + personal development + all that stuff since I created my first business back in 2006 + sold it.
This whole business owner thing is not for the faint of heart, there is a reason why most businesses fail!
While the road to burnout doesn’t look the same for everyone on it there are some similarities you typically experience on this path!
- You’re always in the weeds of your business
- You don’t have efficient systems and processes (or maybe none at all)
- You aren’t delegating effectively
- You can’t take time off
- You’re trying to do too many things at once + wearing all the hats
It’s exhausting just thinking about it! But there’s a way off the hamster wheel!
If you’re overwhelmed, overworked, stressed out, and worried that if you take time off the bottom will fall out from beneath you and your business will fall apart.
Then, you are in the right place my friend, been there, done that, got the tee-shirt and I’d love to support you in ending the cycle!
