Small Business Strategies To Help Employees Create Value

Small businesses must create value to succeed. Just competing based on price or other non-differentiators is not enough.

As Edward de Bono puts it “Companies that solely focus on competition will ultimately die. Those that focus on value creation will thrive.”

Yet, 99% of small businesses today are not creating value for their customers nor are they helping their employees focus on creating the most value for the business.

Let’s discuss some of the strategies you can employ to help your team focus on creating the most value for your small business.

PROCESSES AND SYSTEMS

How To Build A Business That Runs Itself

There are two types of business owners – those who work for their businesses and the others whose businesses work for them.

On the surface, they all run and own businesses, but you know you work for your business when you spend long hours every day giving orders, supervising operations, attending meetings, etc.

You rarely have any spare time for yourself or your family, you never take breaks or go on holidays, and when you get sick, your business operations collapse.

On the other hand, your business work for you if your business can run itself without you.

How To Turn Social Media Followers Into Customers

It’s not about the number of followers your business has, it is all about the number of customers it has.

Many small businesses start their social media marketing chasing vanity metrics like followers, likes, views etc.

But they soon realise that success in social media is not about their ability to get thousands of followers or fans, but their ability to convert followers into customers.

Getting followers is important, as is getting likes and views for your videos, but that’s not the end goal.
