people with small businesses - especially the really small, with only a few employees - often forget to restructure their businesses to more to run, if the founder is not there. I am not referring to an exit strategy, which is a plan to completely leave a company. I mean starting a business, so you have to take a vacation and not have your e-mail to check three times a day (would not that be nice?).
A micro-business is really only as healthy as its owner, so it is important may take time. But your business is your baby, and it is very difficult to leave it behind completely for a long time. You do not have to fight fires on your return. So here are a few ways you can plan your business to keep it going (or even growing!) How to make your much needed R & R received.
1. Be
If your company are your processes, the systems in your head, no one else in your company, they can replicate. So now take the time to write things down and create clear procedures so that someone else in your company, things to do, how to do, while you are away.
2. Say Clients leave
If you do not check his e-mails (or you do not want to) tell customers ahead of time that you will not be available. will happen One amazing thing: they are not my email. If you sneak a look (you know you) halfway through vacation, you will be relieved to find a much smaller Inbox as you normally see.
3. Use, Out of Office Reply
Even if you will be by e-mail, an Out of Office reply use to tell people that you can not react as quickly as they are used to. This frees you to sightseeing to enjoy, knowing there is nothing urgent that you need your attention.
4. Setting limits
It is not to be in order available 24/7 - you need only set the expectation. Once your customers know how to work, they are likely to respect your limits, as long as you also them to be respected.
5. ingrain the separation of work and play in your business
If you can do it, so can your employees. Once it becomes part of your corporate culture, it's there forever. You can enjoy more balanced staff and you will all feel less guilty of being away.
If you are just starting out, and you are concerned, might not be cut out to be a workaholic, which can fine - as long as you, your employees and your customers understand all that, when you're gone , you're gone
you can write these types of organizational goals in your business plan when they are important. Components of your mission or vision. Think about your great entrepreneurial vision - look a freer lifestyle living, or chained to a desk or a phone for 16 hours a day? If it is the former, you can create the systems start now that you finally get to this goal. Sounds like a winning business plan for me.
