Minimize The Effects of The Recession

ItÕs a scary time for a lot of businesses. Every day headlines proclaim lower sales, higher unemployment, and greater economic downturn. All is not lost though. You have your greatest asset at your fingertips Ð Your Employees! Explore ways to stabilize your company, and then grow it into a powerhouse!

EmployersÉ

Empower employees to market the organization.
Everyone talks about his or her job. Provide your employees with services information and incentives to promote your company Òafter hoursÓ.

Review your fiscal budget.
Are all line items necessary to produce your product or service appropriately? Which areas can be trimmed or monies shifted to more efficiently benefit the organization overall? Is there enough funding allotted for employee training and motivation?

Review vendor and service contracts.
Comparison-shop your long distance service, trash collection, insurance coverage, etc. This is a practice often overlooked and a potential gold mine of savings.

Low cost incentives carry a huge impact.
What perks will help your employees perform more productively? Potential incentives include a longer lunch hour several times a month, relocation of workstations or mobile workstations, potluck lunches with emphasis on all things non-work related, or a Òquiet areaÓ for refocusing.

Brainstorm, brainstorm, brainstorm.
Everyone has an opinion or an idea. Initiate informal discussion sessions with emphasis on ÒNo idea is a bad ideaÓ. From what may appear to be the silliest of notions, will come a seed of inspiration for an idea, program, or product that will flourish.

The Customer/Client is #1!
All too often we get caught up in our personal lives and habits, and completely forget whoÕs truly responsible for our receipt of a paycheckÉ the Customer/Client!! Encourage employees to focus on client contact. Clients require undivided attention and focus. The Red Carpet treatment for a client may mean the difference between your company making the sale and maintaining the existing business relationship, or someone else taking the business from you.

Michiel Jonker
As a Certified Information Systems Auditor, Michiel assists businesses in a professional capacity by evaluating the threats to their businesses. He acquired the necessary knowledge, skills, and techniques to minimize a business owner’s risk of business failure and to maximize his chances of high growth and success. He strongly believes that you CAN maximize your chances of business success, by implementing the business solution he has advocated for more than 12 years in your business plan and planning. Michiel has decided to share his experience with business owners by putting almost everything he knows in a business plan and survival guide (compiled in an e-book format) and written as a high growth SMB coaching course for SMB business owners, directors and managers - titled as the “Survival Kit for Small and Medium Businesses - Profit from your Business Risks!” According to Michiel, his goal was to add new techniques to a business owner’s business planning survival kit and instruct him or her in using these in the future - without any help from a consultant!
