Almost There

Welcome to Blog 99. It’s an odd number 99. It poses all sorts of conundrums. Just take 99% for example. It sounds great to some people but for others, it leaves 1% uncertainty or room for improvement. Or how about 99 widgets – wouldn’t you rather have a nice round hundred?

For me 99% is very relevant right now because the three year plan we had at the inception of DrivenByQ Ltd back in 2007 has almost run its course – yes we have had setbacks due to the global recession but we have achieved our original goals (although it took two years longer than expected).

 

So in reality, it is time to sit down and create a new business plan. It is especially relevant now we have our second operation up and running. This in itself has brought challenges we didn’t anticipate and it has highlighted our original business model needs adjustment.

 

Apart from a new business plan and evolving our business model, we should also analyse and dissect our culture too. After all why would any member of our team want to persistently put in time and effort to grow a business if they are never rewarded or acknowledged for it?
