A Spark of a New Beginning

The Strategies Super-Successful High Achievers Use Every New Year

A new year sparks a genesis of opportunities for any types of businesses. From a small scaled enterprise to a business empire, every single one of them are eyeing and on their knees to see a glimmer of hopeful beacon for success. The productivity and efficiency of your company within the entire year would depend on how you are well prepared and organized with your business strategy. If your business didn’t do well for the past year, it is about time to do a reboot and open up new ideas for you to begin the year. Like the phoenix’s rebirth, your business can shoot up its success just as long as you have laid out your yearly plan.

So, if you want to get the year started with positivity, here are some of the tips we can offer:

1. List 5 Important Objectives For The Year

May it be increase your sales, or to develop your public relations, try visualizing the things you want to focus for this year. Make sure that the objectives should be measurable, attainable and of course with a given time frame, you don’t want to re-write the same objectives for next year do you?

Listing at least 5 things in your mind creates a big picture on which path your business should be undertaken for the next 12 months. Why only 5 things, not 20 objectives? Because, you should know what to prioritize for this year, and when you start tto emphasize on the biggest aspects you need to work on, efficiency comes after that.

Also, for each of the objective, try to write down the things you have to do on how to achieve these goals. Try creating a master plan on how to realize these objectives, and do not forget to share these to your employees.

2. Breaking Down The Year

The whole year is composed of 12 months and it would be wise to break down objectives and plans on specific months or seasons. Taking a look strategically on sales, productivity and efficiency and implementing some new ideas should be taken in and reviewed quarterly or monthly. Keep your objectives open for some minor changes for the rest of the year, for sometimes, things might get out of hand and it’s always nice to have a contingency plan ahead of time.

3. Keep Your Eyes on the Goal

When other things that are not connected to your plans springs up, it would be best to keep track of your objectives and stay as is. You have already laid out your plan and changing it all of a sudden may put you in stress, as well as to your employees who will be adjusting to your new plan. A quick fix do not always make things better, and most of the time, it makes things worse.

You can always consider new things once the plans were already achieved. Do not let your judgment and goals be clouded by what is seemingly new and shiny. Keep your eyes on the goal, and make it happen.

4. Fill Out Your New Calendar

Filling up your calendar of activities will also help you have a visualization of the things that should be done. Plan ahead the possible events that you want to look into implementing for this year. Keep only one calendar for they year to avoid any mix ups with other plans, and always keep it under your nose all the time. In every day of the year, divide it to specific blocks of schedule for you to do that will make you fulfill a bit much closer to your listed objectives. May it be phone calls to your clients, or sending emails to your partners, and even meeting with your employees, you need to make sure it has been listed.

5. Continuity of Goals

If there are things you should have done last year, you should make sure to do it by the start of the year. If a goal was not met by last year, it stains a red ink on your ledger and should be dealt with as soon as possible. Try to evaluate why the goal wasn’t met and check if the unfinished goal is something beneficial for the upcoming year.

6. Updates of Necessary Documents

Before the year starts, try to check if your licenses and other important documents are up to date. If not, try to make sure to get these documents be done as soon as possible to avoid any problems within the workplace, may it be possible lawsuits or even health inspection problems. Your business can’t run if your documents are incomplete. So, Chop! Chop! Get done with it.

7. Never Think Like a Lone Wolf

No man is an island, and in businesses, you need more than two or three partners to run a good company. Before the new year starts, make sure that you are still connected with your partners and clients and aim to gather more clienteles as much as possible. Build rapport and trust to possible clients and win them over with you New Year presentation.

8. Evaluation of Performance for the Past Year

Before you start jumping around and celebrate for the upcoming year, try to see what things you should work on with your business. The things that might have given you a splitting headache the past year and the things that boosted your sales enormously are some of the things you need to re-evaluate.

Your business history should give you lessons on what you should avoid this new year, or what things you can do to boost proficiency. There are lots of things you can learn from the past year, so it is a good  business strategy to evaluate your past performance.

9. Just Chill!

Lastly, don’t beat yourself up. Try to stay as calm as possible and as clear minded as possible. You cannot run a business if you’ve gone cuckoo over trivial things. So, just chill and let things flow accordingly.
