In many countries, the term ‘small business’ is a misnomer considering their impact on economies. Indeed, small businesses are drivers of growth, innovation and job creation, making them a vital part of any nation’s economy. For a small business owner, knowing when and how to translate their efforts into growth requires good timing, proper planning and the courage to try new things.

GOOD TIMING
EMBRACE THE LEARNING CURVE Having a difficult learning curve to surmount can pose challenges to a business trying to innovate or penetrate new markets. However, owners who adapt their strategy can reap the rewards of consistency and determination in the long term. Relying on mentorship advice can also help the owner gain useful insights into how to go through the process.

Pushing for growth when funding might not be available or when economic conditions are not favourable can be a bad decision. Taking the next step requires an understanding of the micro- and macro-environment factors and timing-based issues that can hinder a well-laid plan.
