If you've never felt the passion, it's time for a more in-depth look at what decisions need to be made. Put the necessary systems in place to obtain accurate current information about the financial, productive, interpersonal and market status of your business. Then put one day a month on your calendar to review the information, analyze it and make any adjustments to policy or practice you think are necessary. This is valuable information to have when you conduct your monthly business review and when you are doing financial or operational planning. Look at the Big Picture Passion is important, but there needs to be a growing market trend for what you offer.
Trends are especially important for long-term planning.
Determine both your present and your desired position within the economy and your market, then create a plan to get from here to there. Wisely Consider what technology you'll need to accomplish your mission. A thorough, professional analysis of which technologies can best serve your needs, both now and in the future, is in order at least annually. Plan capital expenditure in conjunction with the technology you'll be using. If you're not an expert in this area, call upon someone who is.
