It's hard to build a successful business by accident.
Building a business may be the American dream, but it isn’t for the faint of heart. Entrepreneurship requires optimism and bravery.
And it requires you to embrace being a business owner.
Do any of these sound familiar?
- I own a business, but I say I'm a _______ (dentist, accountant, plumber, etc.)
- Running a business is easier than working for someone else.
- An exit strategy? I'm not ready to think about that.
If you aren’t running your business on purpose, than you’re doing it by accident. If you want to be a better business owner, and get a better handle on your finances, your first step is to build your business on purpose.
To get started, you need a realistic mission statement for your business. This is different than the mission statement they tell you about at business school. And it’s different than the mission statement you set up for yourself and your family. But these things? They’re all connected.
I created a worksheet to help you figure out the best value (or mission) statement for your company.
I’m sharing it for FREE so you can start to discover the power of purpose in building a business.
