Have You Thought About these Procedures For Your Business?

Many business owners  would agree that, there is fear associated with launching your own business.   When in the start-up phase of your business there will be a lot of planning and critical thinking involved.  Decisions must be made regarding customer service expectations, client target markets and business accounting  responsibilities. 

Establishing Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) are essential for your business success.  They can provide the visual for how task should be performed and who is responsible for ensuring task are completed.  You may ask if outcomes within your business design are measurable.  The answer to is a definite Yes.  

As a small business owner here are four benefits to becoming highly productive:

1. Reduce training time for new employees and learning curve:  When you bring someone aboard, obtaining the clarity of their role within your business, upfront, can often be the key to their longevity and loyalty.  A well-written SOP can be the lifeline to retaining a strong employee.
2. Delegating task becomes a non-stressing matter:  Having a well-written SOP in place answers the question of, who can I delegate this task to?  
3. Ensure customers are receiving the best possible experience from your business:  Set your business apart from competition and standardize the way your company handles complaints, inquires and refunds.
4. Standardized process:  How many task can you list at this very moment that are repetitive for your role on a monthly basis?  These time consuming task can easily be transitioned or supported by your key employee when well-written procedures are in place.​
