Even though you may have already developed efficient systems to deliver your core products and/or services to customers, your business may still be at risk if it does not have effective legal, insurance, financial and tax (LIFT) systems in place. Without solid LIFT systems, your business is just one accident, audit, or lawsuit away from ruin. Like the roots of a tree, the strength of these 4 pillars determines the ultimate success of your business. The tree (like your business) can only grow as big as its roots (LIFT systems) can support

employees’ actions, business agreements, business investments, etc. Hire a team to support your business needs and be sure to have employment policies and procedures in place to set boundaries and manage expectations.

Are you operating your business in the dark?

For the most part, your business appears to look just fine to the public eye, but when you take a peek behind the curtain, you can clearly see there is no “business behind the business.” Key signs you are “doing business in the dark”:

● You make business spending decisions by logging into your bank account to see how much cash you have.
● You have no plan or way of forecasting how much money your business will generate each month and for the upcoming year.
● You have no idea what the most profitable good or service is for your business; nor what is draining profits from your business (via expenses, time and/or resources).
● If some accident or unforseen event were to happen, you do not have the proper protections in place to ensure your business can continue operating smoothly.
● You do not have an exit plan. If some life change happens, will you be able to sell your business and benefit from all the hard work you’ve put into it?
