Plan for a Successful 2019
With Christmas around the corner, now’s a good time to put some plans in place so you can have a more profitable, less stressful 2019.
Be sure to set goals and plans that are both financial (your budget, loan balances, number of new clients you’d like to attract and personal (holidays, education, credit card balance). The old adage with goals is that they should be SMART – specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time based. Also, make sure someone knows about your goals and can hold you accountable to achieving them. There’s nothing like a bit of constructive pressure to kick your performance up a gear. With my clients, we break down their next 12 months into 3-month segments and track how they’re doing along the way, making adjustments as we need to.
Once you’re clear on how to set goals, these are some of the areas you might like to focus on in your business over the next 12 months to help take it to new heights.
What are some goals you could develop within each?
