Goals for 2015

At the beginning of 2014, the most common New Year’s resolutions included getting into shape, reading more, spending more time with loved ones, and being more social. Those are all brilliant goals and I think each of us could merit from incorporating these goals into our lives, but how can we make New Year’s resolutions that will help our businesses looking this good?

Get in Shape

The beginning of the year is a great time to assess what habits and ventures worked last year and which ones didn’t. Where is your company the strongest? Do you have some areas of your company, personnel, or strategy that could use a little bulking up? Make a business plan that addresses these concerns and stick to it. Every week review your goals for growth and you’ll reap the rewards. However, don’t give up if you don’t see results from your efforts right away. Just as it takes time to see the results from going to the gym every day, effort put into growing and strengthening your business doesn’t always pay off till a little bit later. Don’t get discouraged!

By engaging with thought leaders in your market and doing research on best business practices, you’ll accumulate a lot of useful knowledge that will enable you as a leader and the main source of information. People seek out the answers to their questions, so if you can provide those answers, you’ll reap the benefits of more business. The more you learn, the more you become an authority, the more people trust you, the more your business will grow. Take the extra time each week or even each day to read everything from specifics about your industry and your products to material about running a business.

Spend Time with Loved Ones

Do you care if your customers are happy and satisfied? Taking the time to know what things your customers like and don’t like and then implanting changes accordingly will be immensely effective. Do you care if your employees are happy in their jobs? Listening to your employees and coworkers and striving to make your workplace a great environment will boost morale and productivity.
