Make Your Business Grow
Introduction
Regardless of the size of your business, every owner faces challenges at some point. You've likely found yourself pondering late at night, "What do I do now?" when things aren't progressing as expected.
Lessons from Corporate Giants
Consider the example of GM, a massive corporation that faced bankruptcy. Retailers like Kmart and Sears merged to survive, airlines have declared bankruptcy, and Enron's collapse was unprecedented. These stories prompt the critical question: How do I make my business grow?
The Entrepreneurial Challenge
According to The Kauffman Foundation, 550,000 Americans start new businesses every month, but at least two-thirds fail within four years, as reported by the U.S. Small Business Administration. How can you ensure your business succeeds?
External Challenges
Uncontrollable forces can impact businesses, such as rising gas prices, which have increased costs for average commuters. These expenses trickle down, affecting everything from housing to groceries.
Consider a dollar store owner who planned to expand but was hit by rising gas prices and a new state lottery. Within months, sales plummeted, forcing the store to close despite a promising start.
Resilience and Motivation
An inspiring quote from Vince Lombardi resonates here: "It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get up." Resilience is key.
Understanding Your Customer
Put yourself in your customer’s shoes. Examine your business from their perspective:
- Is your store inviting and clean?
- Is the signage appealing?
- Are your staff friendly and attentive?
A poor customer experience can drive potential sales away, as I experienced when I left a store due to neglectful service and made a purchase elsewhere.
