Business is a journey with many destinations, some of them are bright and exciting, while others can feel stormy with never-ending dark clouds.
But those who embark on the journey have one thing in common – a big business vision that they dream of realising to create a better world – and going on that business journey is a remarkable endeavour.
As your business evolves and expands, managing its various facets can become overwhelming, and to truly reach the next phase of your business vision, seeking help is not just a choice; it’s a strategic necessity.
That’s where an Online Business Manager (OBM) can help and why you must read this blog to see how to get to the next level in your business and what that looks like for you.
1. Start-up stage: Overcoming challenges and embracing the dream
If you’re just starting out, I understand the challenges and overwhelming moments that come with it. Those late nights, countless ideas, and uncertainties may seem daunting, but remember, you are crafting the foundation of something extraordinary … with a big business vision!
This is an exciting stage, with so many opportunities for you – but it can also get overwhelming. Which advice do you listen to, what step do you take, who can help you, and what if you make the wrong decision? These are all valid questions that run through every business owner’s mind at every stage of business.
What you must do at this stage:
If you are at this stage you might need a helping hand to provide valuable insights and a systems road map to guide you through the initial stages of your entrepreneurial journey.
At this stage, you might need someone to show you or help you to juggle everything in your business and life.
It’s time to build a solid framework and foundation for your business to turn your dreams into reality.
2. Growth stage: Navigating success amid inconsistencies
If you’re in this state, congratulations! Those late nights and hard work in the beginning mean you’ve begun to see the fruits of your labour.
At this stage, you might start feeling tired, frustrated and even a little bored, and you’ve started to see inconsistencies that might be holding you back from reaching your full potential.
As you wear multiple hats, business owners can find it challenging to maintain steady growth. And business can be very up and down.
What you must do at this stage:
This is where you need to streamline operations, identify growth opportunities, and establish a strong brand presence with your marketing.
An Online Business Manager (OBM) will be your partner in achieving stability and growth, enabling you to flourish in a competitive market.
At this stage you don’t need someone to show you or help you to juggle things in your business and life, you need someone to remove tasks from your day to day, and start building systems to improve efficiency.
That’s going to make sure you are not getting stuck in the day-to-day grind (and feeling bored because you’re not working on your big business vision).
Building systems can be time-consuming if you’re doing it yourself and often it just won’t get done because there is so much to do.
But when you have an OBM on your side, it gets done and your business starts working for you – and the inconsistencies you’ve been noticing … they start to fade away so you can focus on what truly matters.
3. Scale stage: Embrace success, but don’t get lost in time constraints
At this stage, your business is consistently making profit, and your business vision is taking shape.
However, you may find the time constraints are becoming more pronounced, preventing you from implementing all the projects in your plan.
And that’s what stops you from scaling. At this stage you need a strategic ally. I’ll work hand in hand with you to optimise your operations, delegate tasks, and unleash your creative potential.
This is where you’ll see your business vision transform into reality, and you get to focus on your big-picture strategies to take it to even greater heights. This is where your meaningful work pays off to help more and more people.
What you must do at this stage:
At this stage you don’t need someone to show you or help you to juggle tasks in your business and life, you’ve already got that sorted.
But you will need someone to take unnecessary tasks off your hands, and lead a team of top-tier players who will help to build the business – because you can’t do everything!
At this stage you still need to be building and rebuilding systems and processes so your operations are working like a well-oiled machine. As your business grows and evolves, you will update these operational systems.
Plus, you need a strategic partner who can integrate projects, understand all levels of operations, assign tasks, and build workflows to help the team work efficiently
