Where are you now?

As with any journey, before you start, you need to know where you are starting out from . If you don’t know where you are starting from you cannot plan your route and you won’t be able to track your progress.

The chances are you are in the same boat as most business owners. As time passes there are more and more pressures on you and your time, you absolutely must focus on delivering goods and services to customers, ordering supplies, managing people and there are always fires that need to be extinguished. When that’s done there is the admin and paperwork, chasing customers to pay their bills and dealing with red tape, and if you are lucky, you will also find time for sales and marketing to attract new customers and on, and on, and on it goes. To help us clarify the link between actions and financial results, we are going to use a real business, anonymised to protect the innocent, so please meet Alex who runs a Software Company providing bespoke software development, hosting and online services.
