Does Your Business Deserve A Gold Medal?
The Summer 2016 Olympics are a thing of the past, but we want to take some time in this article to talk about whether your business deserves a gold medal. We bet it does! Even if you’re never going to get up on the podium and have a medal hung around your neck, here are some things that many entrepreneurs do that warrant gold medal treatment.
They create. Entrepreneurs are creators. They take their idea and run with it. They find ways to address a pain point. They are innovators.
You’re your own boss. Do you remember the leap of faith it took to make the change from employee to employer or entrepreneur? It was scary as hell, but you did it! You are your own boss and you just might be making opportunities available for others.
You use your talent. We all have talents. Some may feel more hidden than others, but everyone has a unique talent that they could potentially use to start their own business. What’s your talent?
You’re doing a better job. When you’re working for a company you may find yourself frustrated with the status quo. This is especially true if you see a better, faster, more efficient way to take on a task and your ideas aren’t being considered. As your own boss, you can take your ideas and run with them!
What prompted you to start your business? What do you do each and every day that warrants a gold medal? If you asked your customers or your staff what would they say sets you apart from the rest and would make you the gold standard to aspire to? We’d love to know.
