In this video, I want to share with you the secret to small business success by getting your technology strategy right, no matter what stage of business you’re at right now. My name is Peter Moriarty, and I’m the founder of a company called itGenius. We are small business consultants. And we worked with 1000s of businesses all over the world.
Now, in working with all of those businesses, and literally 10s of 1000s of employees across all of those teams, we’ve learned what is successful and what’s not successful when it comes to technology with small businesses. And we’ve seen many businesses grow from just a couple of people in their team, to large organizations with sometimes hundreds or even 1000s of employees. Now, what separates those from the successful and the unsuccessful? Well, we’ve tried to distill that down into the technology strategy that drives a business. Now, you would know that many businesses these days are driven by amazing technology. And when you think about how an industry can be disrupted, like Uber coming into the taxi industry, technology is really the driver behind a lot of change and innovation. Now, we don’t want to get stuck behind and left with the laggards of our industry. And so a solid technology strategy, really fueling where you want to take the business is critically important.
Now, we’ve found that at different stages of business, there’s different types of technology, which are the priority, let’s say, Now, there’s hundreds and even 1000s of tools and options out there for a small business owner to worry about with technology, you’ve got CRM systems, you’ve got marketing systems, you’ve got where to store your files, you’ve got how to do emails, and then you’ve got all of your website and your email automation and everything else that goes with that. But if you’re a two person team, you probably don’t need to worry about having a dashboard set up in your office on a TV with all of your statistics and those kind of things, because you’re still at the early stages of working out the business model. Now we’ve put all the different stages of small business into a growth roadmap. And on that growth roadmap, we share with you small business owners, where you need to actually focus your energy and attention at the different stages of your business. Now, if you have a look at the playlists on our YouTube channel, you’ll see all the different stages of small business success, and where you should be focusing your time. And we’ve got videos and playlists curated for exactly what stage of business you’re at. Now, whether you’re a startup launch growth, or even a scale business, there’s going to be different tools that are most critical to you, depending on the stage of business that you’re working through right now. But you might also want to go and review some of the earliest stages in the growth roadmap to see what you might be missing out on. Also, if you’re a small business and you aspire to be a larger business, you might want to learn what’s around the corner. Like if right now you’ve got three or four people in the business and you’re focusing on your file storage and getting your task collaboration all sorted around the corner is making sure you’ve got a great CRM system. So you can keep your sales processes in check and get really good data and analytics on how your sales team are going with customers. If you’re interested in checking out any of these, go ahead and check out the playlist on our YouTube channel. And we’ve got heaps of information on the growth roadmap and how it all works. We’ve even got an in depth video on the different stages of the growth roadmap, and what each of the means and where you should be putting your time and attention. I’ll link that one below.
