4 Deadly Small Business Mistakes

Are your sales stagnate? Perhaps you are guilty of one of these 4 small busienss owner mistakes. If so, take note, repent and start on the right path today.

1. Always working IN your business instead of ON your business. Get out of reaction mode and take time to think strategically. Make a list of 10 new ideas that can create excitement and revenue for your business. Also, if you havent done your marketing plan yet, stop reading right now and go do it. Seriously!
2. Laziness. Pretty straight forward on this one. Get off your rear and get to work. It is nice having your own business, but it very easy to become lazy or ineffecient with your time. And dont get stuck behind a desk all day. Get out there and meet people, do market research, engage with your customers and make some sales.
3. Abusing your health. Spending all your energy on your baby (business) to the point where your kids think you are carrying a baby is not a good idea. Eat healthy and get to the gym or buy some weights. Good health equals healthy mind and directly effects your business productivity. Stay sharp!
4. Not marketing. Marketing is the life blood of your business. In store collateral, bsuienss cards, brochures, websites, signage, branded clothing, networking, referral programs, direct mail, email, and all the rest. Put a plan together and stick to it. Plan your work and work your plan or plan to fail.
