Over the course of time, most successful businesses will need to evolve in order to broaden their scope of services or products. By developing procedures to create efficiencies in how they operate, those businesses have been able to scale in a way that is manageable. This involves having good suppliers, a growing and returning customer base, and an adaptable system in place that supports employees' efforts, giving them tools to make their performance as effective as possible.
Additionally, there are often situations where businesses need to shift their business model to either capitalize on needs in the marketplace, or as we’ve experienced, to do so out of necessity due to cyclical economic disruption (such as global pandemics). As we have seen recently, businesses who have reacted and adapted quickly in these changing business climates have had the most success in handling disruption and are best positioned to exploit opportunities, gain market share or mitigate significant damage to their models.
In either case, even with the right planning and the best staff in place, having a multitude of systems to operate your business can make an already cumbersome transformation an absolute disaster. Having flexibility in being able to quickly adapt your business to any environment will assure that your business is truly nimble enough to not only weather any “storm” but can lead to increased market share.
