Consistency in your business is integral to its success. If you continually make good, sound decisions that move your business forward, you’re going to have great success.

Consistency, over time, is a huge formula for business and marketing success. If you’re consistent in making the small decisions (the small “yeses” and the small “no’s”), and focus on the details of your business, this is where you’re going to make a big difference in your business. This is where you can set yourself apart from everyone else.

Nobody wants to be saddled with the details. You know, the small minute details that drive most small business owners and entrepreneurs crazy – the ones you sweep under the rug hoping you won’t have to deal with… those details. The ones that end up costing you so much time, energy and money in the long run because you ignored them.

Everybody wants to be the big picture person, the visionary, the person with passion and a mission, but the devil is in the details.

The small details are also sometimes the difference between success and failure. Now, everything you try will not work in your business. Some things will work and some things won’t, but if you’re consistently doing things, watching the details, and moving yourself forward more things will work than not.

Why is consistency with the small details so important? It’s momentum – the snowball effect. It’s the snowball at the top of the mountain that starts off very small, and as it rolls down the mountain what happens? It gets bigger and it gains speed and it goes faster… and it continues to get bigger and go faster and faster down the mountain. That’s momentum.

You have this in your business too. You can have either positive momentum or no momentum, and if you’re not implementing, if you’re not moving forward and making these small decisions every single day in your business, then you lose your momentum – you stop picking up speed and you stop growing in your business.

All the small decisions you make every single day in your business build momentum, and once you get the momentum moving forward in your favor, many times you can’t stop the ball rolling even if you wanted to… and that’s a really good thing.

Consistency, over time, will bring you success in your marketing, and in all of the things you’re doing in your small business. So, whatever it is you need in your business to bring people in, to improve technology, to get more oomph, more speed, more momentum, do it consistently every day, over time, and you’ll see a huge difference in your business success.

For most owners of a privately held company, when the time is right they want to sell their business for the highest price possible in the quickest time possible and live happily ever after. There is nothing too complicated in that and at a basic level, that’s perfectly fine. However, a question to ask is whether the business owner wants to sell the business or is their preference to transition the business?

A transition plan that allows the business owner to sell the business for the highest price possible in the shortest amount of time to the most qualified buyer is generally the top of the wish list for most business owners. Because the business owner lives and breathes their business they become emotionally attached to their customers, employees, suppliers and other business partners as the business is a reflection of who they are.

In the initial stages of listing a business for sale, all the attention is placed on getting the business in shape so it presents as strongly as possible, sometimes doing a business valuation to arrive at the most appropriate listing price for the business and discussing the tax implications to the seller of the business. Tom West is the owner of Business Brokerage Press and he has a great saying that most sellers and buyers don’t understand until they get into the negotiations of the transaction and it is – You name the price and I’ll name the terms.
