5 Tips To Succeed in the Hosting Industry in the New Economy
Here are 5 key points to keep in mind:
1. Make a decision to expand. It doesn’t matter if you’re a business owner or not – this applies to all areas of your life. First, it’s important to understand that change starts with you. For example, I strive to be expanding across all my dynamics (family, business, relationships, work, etc). I see contractions as an opportunity that can put me at an advantage, because on the other side of this, I know that with the right actions, it’ll put me in a stronger position in the future as a result of my actions today.
2. Increase Your Discipline. It’s important to have more outflow (activity being put out) rather than inflow (i.e. watching Netflix). During these uncertain times when most of the world is under stay-at-home orders, those who will succeed the most are those who have an increased level of discipline to get things accomplished, even while at home.
3. Be Receptive to Change & New Ideas. The old way you previously used to do things isn’t going to work anymore in the “new normal” day and age that we live in. You’re going to need to start operating with a mindset of control. Take action now, you’re responsible for your own economy.
4. Business Owners: Stay in Communication with Your Customers & Vendors. This is key! Staying in communication with your customers, vendors, and partners is crucial more than ever before to ensure the long-term success of your business during these times. Keep your customers in the loop with frequent email & social media updates and continue to find creative ways to expand your value delivery.
5. Invest in Your Skills. Use your extra stay-at-home time to invest in self-improvement and honing your skills. Don’t hesitate to invest time, energy, and resources towards improving yourself, especially new times like this. Investing in yourself is always, without a doubt, the best investment you can ever make, in any economic status. Get committed to being exclamatory at what you do – rather than average. For example, when a company has to make a decision to furlough or lay off people, the safest ones are the ones who are absolutely stellar and go above and beyond on the job. Be sure to deliver, and always with the mindset of over-delivering.
Wishing you nothing but the best, I’m pulling for you!
