What’s stopping business growth?
There are a ton of things that stop business growth but recently I’ve been doing some studying into what is really stopping progress and for many people there are two real reasons why:
Inaction
Fear
Lets look at this in more detail:
Inaction
We all know we need to be active on social media or that we need to reach out to more people to start building brand awareness but we don’t do it, and we wonder why our business isn’t growing. Why not block out some time each day (as little as 15 minutes) and connect with 10 people on LinkedIn or to create an imaginative social media post.
Make sure that your ‘action’ is then geared towards your business objectives. Look at the possibilities that will come from this change. The change from inaction to action. Reflect upon what you have achieved but do something!
Fear
Fear is one of the main reasons that people don’t start a business in the first place but once you’ve started the business the only thing holding you back is you. I was always told growing up that there is no such word as ‘can’t’ and I believe that if I want something, I can get it. I just need to understand what is standing in the way.
If someone tells me that they can’t grow their business, I will look for reasons why they aren’t growing. In truth, the person themselves is often the reason and with some small changes, we can achieve growth.
I am interested to help people with growth and every once in a while I will help someone to grow their business to prove them wrong. If you’re struggling with business growth, let me help you.
