8 Things To Do For A Successful Binge Working Session 1. Schedule time for the session and let everyone know. 2. Write down your objective and post it in plain sight. 3. Make sure those around you understand you are not to be disturbed. Get More Done As home offices and technology expand, more new businesses open. Demands on our time are increasing exponentially. Running a small business can make it seem like time is not on our side or even in our control. We are experiencing a complete change in how and when we work. 8 Tips For Determining What You Don't Know 1. Find Out How Your Competition Is Doing. Ask yourself if your competitors are doing better than you are. What do they know that you don’t? Are they asking questions and responding to the answers? Did you see your competitor try something new and tell everyone you thought of it years ago? Thinking about it is one thing but doing something about it is what separates successful businesses from mediocre ones. Thinking about it doesn’t make the cash register ring. If You Only Knew Knowing what you don’t know means having an understanding of and a respect for all the knowledge you do not possess. It would be difficult for anyone to possess all the answers and to know all the questions. Two major stumbling blocks can prevent a small business from becoming successful. 10 Rules For Thinking Outside The Box 1. There Are No Rules. There are lessons to be learned but no rules. It would be counterproductive to insert rules into a free thinking format. So no bad ideas, no ‘we can’t or don’t do that here’ and no negativity. It's Time To Think Differently We live in a world filled with buzzwords and new ways to say things. A marketing phrase you may be familiar with is ‘‘thinking outside the box.’’ This means to stop thinking in the normal way, stop using the restrictions that we’ve all grown up accepting, and look at something from a different perspective. 4 Ways To Say No Internally Or Externally 1. Quickly. You want to say no quickly but not without giving the situation reasonable thought. In some cases, the person who came to you needs to make alternative arrangements and your decision will have an impact on his or her next steps. Don’t keep that person waiting. You wouldn’t like being in their position. Saying No To Employees Or Associates You don’t want to diminish the enthusiasm of your staff or associated companies. Their ideas may be good but not appropriate for your company now. Try building on their ideas instead of killing them. The way they were presented may not fit in with your current plans for the future of your company. Saying No To Customers Or Prospects Not every assignment or sale is right for your company, nor is it the best use of your time. Every small business owner has at least a few customers that he or she refers to as ‘‘one-day customers’’, customers with potential. So Much Power In One Word Just as important as being careful whom you chase is the ability to know when to turn down an opportunity. Running a business involves dealing with a series of questions that can be answered with a yes or a no. Some small business entrepreneurs desire their own business in order to be able to say Yes. |  Eric Gilboord is the Founder and CEO of Bizness Central GIVE As A GIFT
