Strategy for Small Business 2

Invest time away from your business

In order to grow your company, you must take the time to get out of your business to focus on your business.

This time away, be it one hour a week, or two days a month, should be spent reading, meeting with a mentor, going to a conference, or retreating to something that refreshes and enriches your mind.

If you are always mired in the day-to-day responsibilities of your business, you will not have time to set the vision for the future, to plan, to strategise and to think about growth. This time away is critical. Schedule it on your calendar and commit to doing it.
