Staffordshire Moorlands Business help for SME's and Startups

About You: Can I help?

David Lovatt -passionate about business. Here to talk. Here to support.

I am guessing that you are a small business owner maybe from North Staffordshire/Cheshire who is visiting this website just to take a look or maybe there is an area in your business where you may need some hands-on support.

There are many facets to a business but also some key fundamentals that are crucial to its success, indeed its survival. You may have all the bases covered and the business is running well.

Alternatively they may be some niggles where you just know you could do better given the time or that little bit of support. I have listed below a number of key questions that may resonate with you and help you to decide whether you need any support to take your business to the next level.

Do you have a financial plan in place which includes budgets and cash flow forecasts
Is there a written strategy which clearly identifies for your fiscal year key business objectives with targets, milestones and management responsibilities.
Have the company's business objectives been clearly communicated to your workforce; are there departmental and personal objectives which support the overall business plan
Do you have an innovation strategy and/or key development projects to guard against product/service erosion or obsolescence
Have you benchmarked yourself against your competitors-where do you stand.
Do you, the business owner feel in control, or are you trying to juggle balls and spin plates at the same time.
Do you monitor the online conversation in order to learn what is being said about your business, your competitors and your market.
Is there a clear management structure with specific defined responsibilities and key performance targets.
Do you have a marketing strategy which positions the business in the marketplace; are you maximizing the use of Social Media to engage with, and reach more customers.
Are your processes regularly audited to reduce waste, improve quality to maximize the added value to products and services in order to improve margins.

Maybe some of the above questions strike a chord with you, if so maybe you feel that you could benefit from some support in one or more of these areas.
