Preparing Your Business For Transition to the New Aftermarket

Too many shop owners appear to be stuck in inertia wondering what to do next. Owners scramble for answers as they attend various courses but never put together a plan after the live session to implement what they took from the course.

As a good business friend of mine summarized to me:

Preparation to move your business forward is not simply re-reading manuals from a course; it’s about using these as tools where you implement the lessons that you’re handed during the live course you attended.

Unfortunately, too many people listen and only hear what they’re not doing; the key is to listen and hear what you need to be doing. The difference between hearing the information and listening to insights is your ability to find the connection you need to move your business forward.

Information and education alone is not freedom; the implementing of the information and education is where the freedom happens. It’s where you gain the clarity to keep your mind moving forward.

Remember, when you are not prepared, you will waste time trying to figure out where to start and what to do.
