Business Coach | Scheduling for Success

 

It is not just important for business owner to work hard in their business according to their business coach. But they need to work very methodically, and on the right tasks. In order to accomplish all of the strategic priorities. And reach their business goals as defined in their business plan.

Doing this, will allow business owners to eventually develop the freedom of time that they dream about. And is often the reason why business owners get into business ownership in the first place.

In order to understand exactly what a business owner needs to be doing in order to be successful. They should sit down with their business coach, and creates a time block schedule.

This way, not only will they understand exactly what tasks they need to work on at each point in their day. But they will also understand how long that they should be, and how many days a week they should work.

While many business owners are not very enthusiastic about working a six day workweek. When they see that there is no other way to fit and all of the strategic priorities into their schedule. They realize it is necessary, and can learn to embrace it.

In fact, when some business owners complaint of their business coach, saying that it is going to be very overwhelming. They will soon learn the hard way, that working a five day week schedule. But not getting everything done consistently. Is far more overwhelming.

Then working a six-day schedule. That allows them to get home on time consistently. So that not only can they relax. They can also spend time with their family consistently.

In addition to that, business owners will also find that when they work that extra day. Since most of their competition will not be working that day. They can gain a lot of customers. Who value being able to go to a business during those hours.

With the right sales and marketing proud that messaging. Can help business owners find even more customers. Because of that time that they are willing to work in the business.

In addition to all of the time devoted to billable tasks. Business owners will also need to work on administrative duties. That while simple to do. Often are time-consuming due to the sheer number of tasks get accomplished.

They also need to ensure that they have sales and marketing on their schedule on a consistent basis. Because one of the most common reasons why businesses fail, is they are not marketing their business. Or they are not marketing their business consistently.

Business owners should also ensure that they have time in their schedule to recruit and train staff. As well as creating checklists and templates for their business.

If they need help creating their schedule. They can call their coach. To help them to look over the tasks. To ensure that not only have they thought of everything. But they have put enough time for every task as well.

What Will Your Business Coach Services Accomplish?

 

When entrepreneurs open the doors to their business for the first time, business coach says if they do not have a time block to schedule. They may not make efficient use of their time.

Without a schedule, business owners may find that they do not know when to switch tasks. Or that they will have customers, staff, or salespeople interrupting them.

And even if they start their day with a to do list. They may not have everything done by the end of the day. Due to those interruptions.

And if they do not have a schedule, what might happen. Is that entrepreneurs do not know how many hours they need to work in a day. Or how many days they need to work a week. In order to be successful.

Which might end up with an entrepreneur working fewer hours than they need. And accomplishing much less then they should be. In order to accomplish all of the tasks of their business.

This is why it is very important for business owners to create a time block schedule before they even open the doors to their business. So that not only do they know exactly what they need to be working on every hour of every day says business coach.

But they will understand why it is necessary to work the long days that they will have to. And why it will be necessary to work a six-day workweek as well.

If business owners do not have time to work on their sales and marketing initiatives. They may find that they are not able to sell the products and services that they need. To generate the revenue in their business to be viable.

In fact, 42% of all business owners that failed. Say not being able to find enough customers to buy their products and services. Is the reason why they were not successful.

Therefore, including time for marketing is an absolute must. To ensure that business owners are doing what they can. To find customers to buy their products and services.

Another important initiative for business owners to work on is recruiting staff. And to put this into their calendar on a weekly basis. Even if they are not actively looking for staff at that moment.

This will ensure that they are meeting the right number of candidates needed. In order to find the right one for their business. Because according to studies, entrepreneurs need to meet about one hundred people. In order to find one right fit.

Therefore, by meeting people on a consistent basis. Means that they can develop a pool of suitable candidates. So that when the need arises. They do not have to waste time starting the search for a new employee.

And this is extremely important to take note of says business coach. Because business owners will always need to replace someone. When they are busy, and when they least expect it.

This regular and consistent recruiting. Can help ensure that business owners can avoid going out of business because they cannot find staff for their business.

This is why business coach recommends putting recruiting in their schedule every single week. Whether they are actually looking for people or not.
