When starting a business, it is common to rely more on feeling as compared to having actual data. But as the business grows, gathering and making use of data is crucial. It will help you improve your products, your categories and strategised your product launches. Make sure that your business have diversified cash and the business model is resilient and can' t be easily knocked over by one situation or event.

Welcome to Sunday's Solo Episode #437.   During this episode, we talk about how I've got Covid-19 after 2 years of feeling invincible and evading it. In the middle of 48 hours of feeling sick and horrendous, I've been thinking of several thoughts and one of them is "Could Your Business Run Without You". We've heard a lot of businesses turning upside down during the pandemic and it's a good exercise to plan in advance for these kinds of scenario. Here are some highlights: If you can systemise and automate your processes, do so. If your just starting your business, make sure that you got your first hire right. I encourage you to employ a PA (personal assistant) or VA (virtual assistant) For business owners, the last thing you want is not making a decision. It's better to make a bad decision than no decision at all.   Learn more about the contents discussed in this episode: Connect with me via LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Clubhouse

Welcome to Episode #430 with Ian Small, CEO of Evernote, the app that launched a personal productivity movement for knowledge workers around the world.   During this episode, Ian and I talk about how innovation is key to a company's future. Here are some highlights: Culture is super important within an organisation. If your culture is toxic, you're not going to get anywhere. If you have a supportive, empowering, high performance culture that allows every contributor to shine in their own way, there is a real potential of success in every employee in the organisation. Learn to listen. Listen to your employees. Listen to the past and to the present. Listen to the customers. If you can't innovate, you can't move forward. As a leader, strive for transparency and honesty. If you're not prepared to be fully transparent with the team and transparent with your customers and honest about the situation, then you're already building yourself a barrier before you start.   Sponsored by MANSCAPED: The Best in Men's Grooming Get 20% Off and Free Shipping with the code justdoit   Learn more about the contents discussed in this episode: Connect with Ian via Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn
