Working On The Business Not In The Business

Now that you’re ready to dedicate more time to working ON the business, you’ll need something to help you stay focused and disciplined. Most people find it easier if they have a structure they can just follow that’s already set up, week by week. An organised structure that shows an overall view of the week, and also has specific times each day set up, just for your business.

In this video, I introduce the concept of a Default Diary. This helps you as a business person to ensure that you give a certain amount of time to your business each day. The more you do this and make it a habit, the more likely it becomes that your business will grow and prosper.

Benefits Of Time Management

Most people, especially business people, think time is elusive. There’s always IMPORTANT matters that are URGENT and need immediate attention. Meanwhile, matters that are EQUALLY important but NOT as URGENT are forgotten. It feels like there’s never enough time to both work IN the business and ON the business. I’m here to tell you that a balance is achievable.

This video talks about various concepts that can help you manage your time, delegate work, and maintain a structure that allows for more attention to the business. Through these practices, you will discover more efficient ways to work and realise that time isn’t always so elusive.

What Is A Business Coach And Why Do I Need One?

Some people may be skeptical as to the necessity of a business coach. Well, in the same way, a professional athlete still needs a coach, a business coach can prove indispensable to business owners as well. Often, business owners, much like professional athletes, are too focused on the game to see any mistakes they may be making. This is what coaches do, in business as well. They watch you play then give feedback and make a game plan for you.

And much like professional athletes, you also need to do your part in the business. It doesn’t matter how good the coach is if the player doesn’t want to take part.

Understanding Financial Goals For A Business

Often times when business owners set financial goals, they focus on their turnover rather than profit. People often talk about their turnover, but as I always say, turnover is vanity, profit is reality.

You see, a big turnover means very little if you have nothing to show for it at the end of the day. Higher turnover leads to increased costs, the need for more infrastructure, hiring more people and many more challenges. Usually, we are simply just amplifying our stress levels because of business inefficiencies. Like a leaking bucket, the more water we pour in the more comes gushing out.

In this video, I talk about tracking and understanding financial goals, KPIs, and more so that your business runs smoothly.
