It’s a new year, and now’s the time to set goals, commit to organization and grow your business. Whether you are trying to sell a new product, increase sales or build your team, follow our top tips to setting goals in 2019.

Get Organized: Now’s the time to go through old paperwork, file important documents and implement organizational solutions. After you clear out the clutter of 2018, you’ll be ready to set goals and keep them.

Evaluate Last Year’s Goals: What worked in 2018? What didn’t? Maybe you went in a totally different direction than you expected last year. That’s OK. Take what you learned in 2018 and use that to create new goals that will set you up for success.

First, Think Big Picture: What do you actually want to accomplish this year. Instead of getting bogged down by all the little steps in between, think of the most important goals and break it down from there.

Include Measures of Success: How will you ever know if you’ve succeeded without adding in some key measures of success. Want to grow your business? Figure out by how much. Write it down and keep it somewhere visible throughout the year.

Consider Hiring Outside Help: Some parts of running a small business are tough. Try hiring an outside company to fulfill the needs of your back office, HR or insurance. This will take a lot of the pressure off.

The new year is always a time of reflection, both personally and professionally. Taking time to review your challenges and successes is the best way to set your business up for success in 2019.
