My Business Worth Experience 💭
It’s hard to say, but a large segment of business owners are slowly sabotaging their business value and future wealth — and they don’t even know it. Read on and find out why…
It has happened to me many times over my long career, with many business owner clients.
When I reviewed my clients’ situations, I would ask them about their future plans for business growth and transition — a very important conversation to have with clients.
Countless times they would tell me that “their plans are all in their heads.”
🚫 The problem is, no one else knows what’s in their head. It’s just a thought, not a real plan.
Most recently, I suggested to my business client that he create a blueprint (a designed plan) of his ideas and share it with his growing middle management team. I even offered to share it with his accountant, attorney, and other advisors, as I often do.
Despite my suggestions, I heard the same story that’s been repeated to me year after year:
“I haven’t gotten around to formulating my plans as of yet.”
These are the plans that nobody else knows about.
⏳ To me, it’s a matter of time — without communication and delegation, a company loses growth momentum and starts the decline.
I honestly don’t see how a business can grow without communicating to employees the future growth ideas and direction the owner wants to go, along with how they’ll get there. It’s like — if they’re not involved, the project won’t get done correctly.
🔁 So, year after year, we review the same story. It’s like Groundhog Day for me.
So, here’s my question:
❓ Does your business have a written growth plan, or is it all in your head? ❓ If it’s in your head, why keep it there? ❓ If you have a written growth plan, what motivated you to create it? ❓ Have you been through this with your company — what was the biggest problem it created?
💬 I’d love to hear feedback from business owners.
Why?
Because for over 50+ years as a consultant, I’ve been told that business owners feel their business is their most valuable asset.
If so… why don’t they communicate their plans to the people helping them grow it — so they have the greatest chance of building a successful future transition? 🚀usiness Worth Experience 💭
