Scaling Up Business with Bill Gallagher Tuesday’s Tips — Helpful Tools to Better Deal with a Crisis
Because of the 2008 crash, Bill had tools and strategies already prepared that when 2020 hit, he was able to pull out his toolbox and adjust accordingly.
The first step is to triage the situation. Where can you buy some breathing room to really assess the situation? You want to begin to preserve cash, and hold on to the core of your business as best as you can.
The next step is to use the SWT tool (say "SWEAT"). It’s a little bit of a more strategic version of the SWOT analysis tool. SWT focuses more on upcoming trends and gaps in the company. And then finally, we want to connect the dots. Now that you have this information, what’s the most logical move forward?
