Tuesday Challenge – Make Your Mark

Today is a new day.  It’s Tuesday and time to set the work “on” your business in motion. Today’s challenge is part of planning a business and although you might not be a start-up, it is essential to develop and review your strategic business plans regularly.  Does your business have a vision statement?  Make your mark in your industry by first developing and believing in a strong statement about your business.

This week, take time to think about your business and answer these questions to help you understand and develop your vision statement.

1. Why did you start the business? Was it to overcome an industry challenge? Something your passionate about in the world?
2. What do you hope to accomplish?  Does your business have an overall goal other than to make you rich and famous?

Each day this week set aside time to research and decide the direction of your business.  Keep track of your efforts and decisions and at the end of the week, you’ll be ready to share your vision statement.  

What is a vision statement?  It is a description of what an organization would like to achieve; a guide to choosing current and future courses of action.
