The 38 tips you’re about to see are contained in my two e-manuals called, “How Your Business Can Survive And Prosper In A Recession.”
NOTE: I interviewed 38 top experts in business, sales & marketing. Each expert revealed the common mistakes most businesses make, 5-10 methods that they’d use to survive and prosper in a recession, and money-making opportunities available to business owners during this time.
You are about to see just ONE method from each of their interviews. If you would like to see more, then you can go to the site and check out a free preview of two of the interviews or grab both e-manuals for one low price.
Now here is your 26th tip…
(Vol. 2 Tim Berry – Method To Survive & Prosper)
“Gather your team together. Do a SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) with key members. Think strategically.”
What I like about Tim’s advice is that he encourages you to look at BOTH your strengths AND weaknesses and opportunities AND threats.
This way you can focus on the areas where you can see maximum results while at the same time guarding your weaknesses and being prepared against your biggest threats.
I also like that he encourages business owners to come up with these things with their team. This protects against a business owner not seeing positives or negatives because of their own blind spots. Gather up your team and do this tomorrow, then ACT on the things you come up with!
