Creating a Game Plan for Growing Your Business

Creating a game plan for growing your business

As I have mentioned on a number of occasions, you can’t continue doing the same things and expect different results. Here are some questions you need to ask yourself to better determine if you’re focused on the right areas that can make a significant difference in the ability to help your business reach its potential. In working with Joe, we started by evaluating areas of strengths as well as weaknesses. These first three questions gave us a basis to work from.

1.    Over the years, has the company kept up with the changes in your respected industry?

2.    Is each facet of the company’s marketing/sales, design, construction, etc. working collectively on a game plan that maximizes each entity and creates same page thinking? Are you developing a total concept that allows the company management team and employees to share a common company vision?

3.    Is the company on the front of the wave? Are you pacesetters in your respective industry?

Start by answering these three questions and answering them in a very objective way to better understand where the company stands in the current market place.  

I did independent contract work for Wendy’s for twelve years back when Wendy’s was first started up. I vividly remember in the fast food industry when Wendy’s started the drive-thru window concept. It really got everyone’s attention industry wide. What are you doing to institute a pacesetters mentality? We will continue along this line in the upcoming weeks.
