Many times it’s hard for people in business to really keep things organized and moving forward smoothly. Specifically projects…
As your business takes off, you will find the things you’ve done in the past get you buried. And it’s hard to figure out what should be done before what…
When I’m planning my projects, I try to prioritize them based on a few things:
1. How much time will it take?
This is especially important when you are first starting out. You want to focus on things that are going to line your pockets the fastest because you need to pay the bills!
You also want to make sure you can do it along side everything else you are doing without making anything else suffer.
Or you will have to decide if something else should be sacrificed to do this new project…
2. What will make me the most money?
Again, money isn’t everything, but it sure helps… especially in the beginning. You can always do charity work later.
3. What will make me money the quickest?
Money again? Yeah, well money is what makes the online world go round. So try and find a good opportunity and direction for yourself that will get you from rags to richest in a reasonable amount of time.
4. What am I excited most about?
If you can concentrate on things you are excited about first, that is optimum. You will find more energy for it and will be more passionate about it… in turn you will probably get to a positive cash position faster!
5. How will it affect the whole as I roll it out?
Will it take away from other things that I am doing? You don’t want a project to consume you so much that something else that you’ve worked hard on suffers…
6. Can it wait?
All of us should have short term and long term strategies and goals. You can’t do everything now. Focus on what will get you where you want to go fastest now… reserve the other stuff for later…
There are more things that go through my head, but you get the idea. What is most important and what will get me there the fastest?
This is so essential in the beginning! You have to make sure you are doing all you can to make money if you want to survive.
It’s very easy to get rapped up in things that don’t…
You are the captain of your ship. You are responsible to navigate that ship and make sure you stay on course to the land of the riches (your goals). To not get stuck on a sandbar.
Remind yourself of this.
When you are sitting at your computer or whatever looking at a list of things to do, look at it from a monetary standpoint.
What is most important for my business now? What can wait?
That’s the monetary approach you should take, but from a management standpoint, you also must consider what needs to be done in the course of your business… Before anything else, take care of the customer.
You can go after all the new business you want, but ALWAYS take care of your new, current or established clientele or customers first!
If you lose one, it will cost you more to replace them than it would have cost to keep them…
1) Customers always come first…
2) Then the general management and routines of your business that keep your ship running smoothly…
3) Your prospects and lead follow ups…
4) Then development and projects…
This is by no means a complete list, but it should give you some ideas.
It should at least make you think about your actions everyday. Everything you do will have an impact on your future and will have an effect on your success or failure. Think about it!
