Quote of the Month ~ April
“April is the Sweetest Month of the Year...The Mellow Season of Rebirth & Renewal”
The Second Quarter of the year is a great time for leaders to take stock of their progress and set goals for the months ahead. Whether you’re looking to boost sales, improve operations or expand your team, it’s important to have a plan in place to make the most of Q2.
So here are 3 Ways for Starting Q2 Strong:
1. Have A “SPECIFIC”Goal in Mind ~ As You listed all those New Years Resolutions earlier this year, what’s that one thing of yours that’s been on your “To-Do” list forever. You must have a specific goal in mind and a plan for how you will get there otherwise, you’ll be working daily accomplishing nothing that aligns with that specific goal. Are you going to bring on a specific number of new clients? Reach an important monetary milestone? Launch a new service? It’s OK if things don’t go exactly as planned..they rarely do just make sure you stay focused on the practical aspects of your goal.
2. Have A BUSINESS STRATEGY
~Now you got the goal written down, how are we going to get there? First you have to start with your purpose..what’s your why? Knowing and understand your why is VERY IMPORTANT
because that is what is going to keep you motivated otherwise you
may not leave the bed. Next write down step 1, step 2, etc and put
them in sequence so you know what’s after the other and have direction.
There is planning and preparation involved based on what you are
capable of doing and strategies. The same applies to succeeding in
business; without a clear strategy to be successful and a clear path
to accomplish it, you won’t win.
3. Assess You and Your Company’s Performance & Conduct Visual Planning
~ Do an open and honest self-assessment of you or your
company’s performance so far. Stop and think alone or with
your team on what is working and what is not, what isn’t let it go.
Vision planning and execution after an assessment of where
things are today can help you continue to thrive and grow in
the next season. When I’m able to understand where I am and
where I’d like to be, goal setting follows. Your business growth
can go as far as you see it, so vision planning is a helpful
strategy to set the right goals that support your desired growth.
Let’s Make This Year a Good One. Cheers To 2024.
As Always Continue to Breedlove.
