From the Keyboard of Brockwell ...

Does your business have an umbrella? Are you making it in the economic conditions of our country? Did you have a plan or are you, like many others, winging it?
As a small business owner, I work on my business and I work for my business; many of you do the same. Working for your business and working on your business reviewing the books, answering phones, and planning the next tradeshow typically leaves any time for proper business planning.
Some business owners set a point from here to their goal and start going, usually without a list of steps to get there. Would you agree that this method generates less than efficient results – I would!
The new year is upon us! What do you want for your company in 2009? A profit increase of 10%? Two new employees? Three new computers?
Setting these types of goals are only half the battle! Proper business planning also develops the requirements, financials, strategies, and other steps to get from where you are now to your goal.
Take time this December (or even beginning of January) and layout your goals and the steps to get there. A few hours of planning now could help you pass your goals later!!!
To your success,
Brockwell Bone
PS – If you would like assistance planning your year, need another brain to pick, or advice, please do not hesitate to schedule a consultation.
NEXT MONTH: Did you plan your goals? Are you following your plan? Are you tweaking your plan?
