There is no doubt that without a strategy and set up goals – we cannot achieve success because we simply don’t know where to look for
it.

The key to success in your business is inside of you.

But the biggest mistake many people do is that they look for it everywhere but not there where it actually is.

Here is the proof:

You are the owner of your business but do you have control over it? Do you reach for goals you want to achieve or do you reach for those goals, which don’t satisfy you? Do you love your business? Or do you cry over it?

Is it because of many Problems with costs, people, market, economy, government, cash flow, customers? Always someone to blame for …

But now realise that no matter what the obstacle is – you and only you can challenge it. And only you are responsible for how you are going to succeed.

Steps to follow

• The main issue is here: stop blaming situation around you and do something. Anything is possible if you have a proper plan of action and strategy to go for your goal!

• The fact that you are overloaded with work, never have time for anything won’t help. You must find the time. If you do it you realise that it makes a massive change.

• What you should achieve is to find the roots of existing problems. Just slow down and try to manage your time. Focus. Yes it is
achievable! If you cut the roots the problem will die.

• Prepare a system of managing processes in your organisation. It can be a very basic one at the beginning but it will help you to define the main processes and manage those (taking orders, invoicing, production, distribution).

• Set up the Key performance Indicators for processes in your organisation. How do you measure your targets?

• Focus on your target market and enjoy it. You have chosen to be there and try to work with your customers. They are the ones who buy your product. Understand the Voice of Your Customer

• Never make promises you cannot keep. Even simple phone call. If people can trust you they also can trust you product.
