| GOAL SETTING Goal setting is an important exercise for small business owners; without goals, you will just drift along. Goal setting allows you to be proactive, instead of just being reactive. These goals should include Sales, Operations, IT, and Profit. However, just setting goals isn’t enough. Goal setting is just the first step to achievement. The next step is developing a goal setting strategy to help you accomplish the goal you have set. A goal setting strategy is a series of actions that you are going to use to work towards the goal. You will also need to align your staff and assign accountabilities to reach these goals. To be successful, you need to make things happen, not just let things happen. Biz-iz can help you establish reasonable goals, and help you with the strategy plan to make it happen! |
STAFFING The small business can only hire a small amount of people. Therefore, you need to be very selective in your hires. You don’t have a lot of training time, so you need to hire people with a variety of skills, and with the ability to quickly learn other skills. Biz-iz can help with the job descriptions, interviewing and training to bring your new-hire up to speed quickly and efficiently, and make sure you hire the right people to achieve your goals. Obviously, the final choice is yours! |

NEW HIRE PAPERWORK Once you hire your employee, there are many government regulated forms that must be completed and kept up to date, as well as new hire benefit orientation. Biz-iz can help you put a new-hire packet together and teach you to complete it properly so that you stay out of trouble with the government. We can also review current files to be sure they are up to date. |
| ENHANCE BANKING RELATIONSHIPS One of the most important relationships you can have in your business is with your banker. It is very important to meet with them on a regular basis. During this meeting, you can show them your financial statements, your company goals, and the plan to meet those goals. Your banker can often give you advice, and can also help you when it comes time to get or renew a loan. |
VENDOR NEGOTIATIONS If there are products or services that you buy on a regular basis, you want to be sure that you are getting the best pricing possible. Biz-iz can get bids for your product, and then sit down with your favorite vendor to negotiate the deal you need. Sometimes it helps to have a "bad guy" to help you out! |
