Home Blog 3 Everyday Tasks That Will Make a Colossal Impact on Your Small Business
Earlier this week, an iceberg the size of Delaware broke away from western Antarctica. While this is typical behavior for ice shelves, and scientists have been anticipating the event for months, what makes this event unusual is the size of the iceberg.
Weighing more than one trillion metric tons and estimated to be about 2,239 square miles, the massive sheet of ice, which is big enough to fill lake Erie twice, is now floating independently. While scientists say the event will not have any direct impact on humans, it does dramatically alter the landscape of the Antarctic peninsula.
As a small business owner, you know what a colossal undertaking it is to effect the growth that will change the landscape of your business. You’re taking on operations, sometimes single-handedly, that larger corporations accomplish with teams of experts: think things like managing money, maintaining cash flow, obtaining financing, executing a marketing strategy, and hiring (and training and retaining) great employees, to name a few.
While these tasks are no doubt some of the biggest time depleters you’ll encounter in entrepreneurship, and they’re critical to having a smooth-running business, they’re not the only things that can alter the landscape of your business. You don’t have to wait for a big breakthrough or a major event to make a noticeable impact in your sales, your customer acquisition or the overall health of your business.
These three everyday tasks will not only keep your business afloat, but if you do them consistently, they’ll effect greater change and growth over the short- and long-term life of your business.
While you’ll always have a focus on the big picture, honing in on effective day-to-day routines will ensure your business is keeping good momentum. Prioritizing your to-do list, becoming a singletasker and learning something new each day will not only ensure the important tasks are completed, but help you carve out a profitable future for your business.
