Goals Will Get You There

You own a business, so you probably did okay in school. You were in a sport at one point — or at least some sort of club. The point is that you've been exposed to goals, how motivating they are, and how rewarding it is when you meet them. So, why don't 90% of business owners set goals for their business? (Hmmm... could this be linked to the 90% business failure rate?)

Every business owner needs goals as part of a marketing plan. The act of quantifying your business and translating that to an attainable increase in sales is motivation enough to develop a plan around those goals. They provide a straightforward and very honest assessment of your business’ strong points.

Where would you like to see your business in the next 6 months? Figure out your attainable goals, and write a plan to accomplish them. Soon you'll look back in pride, awe, and with the will to keep growing.
