Add up the numbers of each answer to give yourself a score from 4 to 16 and see what we recommend for you and your business.
If you scored 4-10:
It is likely that many things are inconsistent in your business from having enough cash flow to pay everything (maybe even yourself) regularly to knowing what marketing you should do to increase your revenue. It is likely you want to have a team to help you more but don’t know how to get there. You can use some help around business strategy, marketing and possibly leadership to move ahead in your business faster.
If you scored 11-13:
Your business is likely pretty steady and yet you still see a few key things you want to stabilize or improve. The sensation of “almost being there” is probably familiar to you. Things may shift quite a bit in your business. One day everything is great and the next things are quite chaotic.
If you scored 14-16:
Congratulations. You have built a solid foundation for your business and are ready to move to the next level in your business. In that level you will see considerable profit being returned to the business owner and your marketing will begin to produce predictable results. You’re also ready to work on building your team, both in size and through strong leadership.
Bottom line, growing your business is not something you have to do alone. We are here to help. Hope that 2014 brings great success to you.
