Our Ratchet Technique Reduces Risk
Eliminate the two steps forward, one step back problem!
Businesses often overdo their growth targets and run out of money
And that is just one risk dragging businesses backwards!
Our Ratchet System for Sustainable Business Success reduces the backsliding risk!
We use “ratchet” to describe our system for improving business growth and profitability while reducing the risk of the business going backwards.
” a ratchet is something that makes a situation change or develop in one direction only, for example by being able to rise but not fall …:” – Cambridge Dictionary
Do Away With Complex Business Plans
Although the gurus say you should have a multi-year business plan, realistically, that’s not reasonable for most small businesses. You work on much shorter time frames and with much more uncertainty than big business.
Picking a figure for your revenue in 2 years time is really just picking a figure at random. You will be wrong 99.9% of the time so why waste time and energy on something that speculative!
In any case, you are probably more interested in just surviving right now!
We have built a more realistic, and easy to use, 2 Step planning system for small business
We call it GamePlanning!
FIRST: Decide where you want to be in three years time
You can quickly decide where you want to be in general terms in 3 years time. It might be (e.g.);
- profitably exiting the business
- growth as fast as sustainable
- or slowing down growth for lifestyle reasons
None of these are right or wrong! It’s entirely your choice. And you can change you mind without wasting a lot of past planning effort.
We call this your 3 Year GamePlan
SECOND: Decide your Most Pressing Issue to Resolve in next Quarter; likely Turnaround initially
We help you prioritize your no-doubt long ToDo list to find the main issue to tackle over the next 90 days. Its usually fairly easy to pick the biggest problem and 90 days is a manageable timeframe to get things done.
This way you and your team have regular successes as motivation. And your business moves forward as rapidly as possible because you are always addressing the most important issue at that time.
We call this your Quarter GamePlan
