3 simple words that make the difference between wild success and just an average year!
The “big players” understand that the keys to success are found in Planning + Focus + Accountability! Set a goal by making a PLAN, sustain a laser FOCUS on achieving that goal, and be sure everyone on the Team knows their role AND is held ACCOUNTABLE for doing their part!! It’s that simple . . . yet when I ask many potential Clients to “show me your Plan,” the response is often very disappointing.
Don’t be in that crowd who hopes the business will run itself . . . you’re a leader so take charge! Make an ambitious 1-PAGE ANNUAL PLAN which describes your expectations . . . communicate that PLAN across the entire Team, making sure everyone knows what is expected of them to achieve the intended results . . . drop the flag to signal “Let’s go!!!” . . . then hold people accountable for doing their part!!
Have a Team huddle routinely to discuss progress and next steps . . . make corrections as needed . . . let a few people OFF THE BUS if they continue to perform poorly and are unwilling to try . . . be an encourager and a motivator and a helper for the Team . . . and keep things SIMPLE!!
A 1-page Business Plan . . . a Monthly Playbook with periodic huddles to check progress and make adjustments . . . hire and encourage and retain the right people . . . and never, never quit!
Business success doesn’t just happen . . . it takes PLANNING & FOCUS & ACCOUNTABILITY !

I do believe all the concepts you have presented for your post. They are very convincing and can definitely work. Nonetheless, the posts are very brief for beginners. May you please extend them a bit from subsequent time? Thank you for the post.
