Would you like your business to keep growing? And would you like to retain the valuable employees that work for you? Half the year has gone now, so the time has come to take a step back and do a mid-year checkup to make sure that you’re on track in reaching the goals and targets that you’ve set for the year for your business. This is something that you can’t do alone so it’s very important to get everyone on board and to have the entire team facing in the same direction. Listen in today as I explain my really simple, eight-step plan for doing this.
Every employee needs to know what’s in it for them and they also need to understand that if you work as a team, with the same goal in mind, everybody is going to benefit. I used a simple, eight-step, one-page business plan, to do quarterly check-ups in my business and it really helped us stay on track, and it worked in keeping the turnover rate of employees low. On the show today, I will be discussing how to do this by using my one-page business plan, which you can download for free from my website, as a playbook. Even though many of us don’t really like business plans (or think we have time for them) they are critical if you are going to grow your business, so listen in today to find out how to use my eight-step mid-year checkup to keep your employees motivated and your business growing and running smoothly.
