Tips Every Business Owner Should Follow!
You are only one person and when you are running your empire, one of the toughest things is managing your team and work load effectively! Along with this, you need to make sure you are leading your team to the best of your ability, using your time wisely and most importantly, looking after yourself so you can do all of this with a smile!
Take care of your star players and learn with your team
Utilize your team. A business with a strong team is extremely important and can really drive your business along the road to success. The cost of losing a star employee is enormous, so take the time to know who your stars are and show them how much you value them.
Listen to your customers
As the saying goes ‘the customer is always right.’ Yes, this is true but listening to them is how you really learn what your customers need. Running customer feedback surveys can give you a good insight into your customers requirements or what they might be missing out on.
Lead with purpose
Humility is a powerful trait for leaders to have. As a small business owner flexibility is key. You really do have to operate well across a variety of functions such as sales, marketing, finance, operations, HR etc. And let’s face it – this can be extremely over whelming so utilize your team to drive success. Successful leaders lead with purpose, vision and a set direction for their team. Understand the power of motivating your team, encouraging collaboration and problem solving to achieve the results you need!
Trust your gut
How often in business do we look back and say ‘I knew that was a bad idea.’ Learn to value your instincts as they are an extremely valuable decision-making tool.
