The Benefits of Support: Why Getting Administrative Support is Critical
to Your Business Success
You
want to MAKE money, right?
As a small business owner, did you know that trying to do everything
yourself is costing you 40 to 60% in lost revenue?
Yup, it's true. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration
(SBA), the average small business owner spends up to 40% of his or her
time on routine administrative tasks. This may even be on the conservative
side as some business owners who have tracked their time for a week or
two have been shocked to discover they were actually frittering away a
whopping 60% of their own time on administrative work.
Doing the Same Thing Yields the Same Results
Administrative work is absolutely vital—it's what keeps your business
organized and humming along smoothly. But that doesn't mean you should
be the one doing it. As the business owner, 80% of your time should be
focused exclusively on planning, strategizing, marketing and development,
not to mention working with clients if you provide a professional service.
Doing your own administrative work cuts into the time you have to devote
to those core revenue-generating areas. If you don't have the skills and
resources to do that work well, it will take you longer. If you don't
like certain tasks, you'll keep putting them off. All of which ends up
zapping energy and wasting precious time and resources, not saving them.
The fact is, your business will never grow beyond where it is today unless
you get support. The more administrative, non-core, energy-draining activities
you can eliminate from your plate, the more profitable, streamlined and
successful your business can be.
