The top three things to help you focus on business sustainability
As an entrepreneur, you have already taken your idea from conception to reality, which takes a lot of heavy lifting and work. Majority of owners focus on finances, sales, and execution, which are huge for any business to get off the ground.
But we've noticed a trend with our clients and from our experience of other elements that either make or break a business, yet they can easily get overlooked.
We've broken these down to three primary categories to help focus on the sustainability of your business and alleviate any bottlenecks in the process.
1. The People
Who have you chosen to be a part of your team? These individuals are key to the success of growing your company.
Their work ethic, mindset, technical capabilities, etc. are fundamental. They will either be relieving stress or the cause of it, so be selective of who you hire.
Questions to ask yourself:
- Do they have a growth mindset?
- Are they problem solvers?
- Do they create a way when their seems to be no way?
- Are they for your mission?
Taking the extra time to recruit key players instead of just filing a role will benefit you and your business in the long run.
2. The Product or Service
You know why your product and service are necessary, but do your clients?
Tell them why the solutions you provide to aid their problems and why they should choose your company over competitors.

- Are your operations effective?
- What are key metrics that you monitor to track performance (if any)?
