Is Your Small Business Balanced?
Think of your top 3 costs in your small business right now. It could be personnel or supplies or something else entirely.
When you have more work, do these costs go up or down for your small business? Your costs should be balanced – having a smaller number of sales in one month should not cost the same as having a large number of sales. How can you ensure that your business is more secure?
Managing Your Cash Flow
Knowing your numbers is a vital part of managing a small business. This is an area that you absolutely cannot afford to neglect. Your own money habits will factor into this and you need to look at saving money, time, and goodwill by managing your cash flow. A great tip for improving your cash flow is to charge for results upfront, instead of time at the end of the month.
Operations First
It’s much easier to sell a proven result.
Do you have testimonials? Do you have happy customers and proven results that your potential customers can see and evaluate themselves? Pick your most profitable offering and for the next 90 days, work only on that offering. Improve it, manage it, share it with an audience that can have their problems solved by that offering.
