This week on Tuesday Tips we will continue to talk about how we are preparing for year end and setting your business up for success in 2018.
This week, I am headed to San Jose, California to attend the annual QuickBooks conference. I am preparing to learn new skills that I can share with you in the coming months. I attended this conference last year and it has made a tremendous difference in my business in 2017.
What are you doing to prepare for your success in 2018?
We are about mid way through the month of November. Have you started thinking about what your goals are for 2018 yet? If you haven’t, you should be thinking about it and putting plans in place to finish out 2017 strong so that you can hit the ground running in 2018.
I recently posted a video asking savvy business owners this exact question. There is about 6 weeks left in 2017, are you prepared to close the year out strong? My question to you is: when was the last time you took a look at your numbers? Do you know how much income you brought in last week? Do you know what your expense are this month? Do you know if all of your product lines are profitable?
If you answered no to any of these questions, NOW is the time to start thinking about them. Now is the time to know where you are financially in your business. Now is the time to which product lines are profitable. I know that numbers are not your thing. I know that you started your business to do your thing and you are awesome at it, but one of the tasks that go along with running a successful business is keeping track of your numbers. I know that you don’t like to pay attention to that kind of thing, but here is why you should.
