The 5 experts you need to help your business grow
Expertise is a word some of us shy away from, however when you are wanting to open a supported living business, I believe it is necessary to drawn on experts to help us in the areas we cannot manage effectively. In other words, we recognise that we are a bit rubbish at some stuff!
Entrepreneurs are good at a lot of things, but we are not good at everything!
What is an “Expert”?
Dictionary definition: a) a person who is very knowledgeable about or skilful in a particular area OR b) having or involving a great deal of knowledge or skill in a particular area
I am sure some of you can think of many more experts whom we could add to our “team” of helpers but for now let’s take a look at the following five:
- Marketing expert – Marketing is an essential part of business growth and there are many ways this can be done. The question is, does your current marketing plan fit your business?
- Branding expert- The one who understands how powerful branding can be and will show you how to get the message of who you are across to the masses!
- Business coach or mentor - Someone who knows more than you about business and how to effectively develop it. Don’t let your ego get in the way of reaching out!
- Financial expert – Otherwise known as an accountant who can give both sound advice as well as do the number crunching
- You! - Bet that took you by surprise! Well, you are offering a service to the public and don’t we like to buy from experts when the opportunity arises?
“How much will this cost Angela?” I hear you ask!
My response is “What will it cost you, if you don’t get the support you need?” It may cost you a little or a lot everything is relevant, either way, consider whatever you pay as an investment into your business for long term growth. Why? Because….
It’s time to make that shift!
