Every business needs a strategic business plan of who does what by when supported the WAY SMART criteria for goal achievement. Many business owners are familiar with the SMART goal criteria: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistically set high and Target date, time driven. Yet, as a business coach, I have recognized that to build a thriving business requires the addition of three other goal criteria. Goals must be Written, Aligned to Plan and Yours. By actively reviewing your business plan, monitoring your WAY SMART goals and making those course corrections when necessary, hope will no longer be your key business building strategy. TAKE ACTION by establishing one 30-day marketing goal and one sales goal. Use the WAY SMART criteria to write each goal. Take the time to think about all potential obstacles and possible solutions before writing down any action steps. If you are still having challenges, you may wish to hire a business coach with a proven track record.
