Office Organization and Your Small Business

As a business owner it is key to keep your office and business organized to reduce inefficiency and increase productivity. Disorganization can also affect customer service, vendor relations and more important aspects of your business. This is even more important to an owner-operator whose time comes at a premium. 

 

The Problem

If you own your own business and do not have any employees you are your own sales department, marketing department, accounting department, production department and more. It’s very easy for the day to day administrative and organizational tasks to get tossed to the side because, let’s be honest, it’s more important to make a sales call then to file some paperwork.

Eventually these things pile up and prevent you from running or business or at the very least make you very inefficient. Now you, as the marketing department, accounting department, sales department, production department and so on are spending your valuable time on catching up on customer mailings and other administrative tasks. This is called the opportunity cost, the cost of you as the owner of the business using your scarce resources, yourself, on clerical tasks that are not material to your business but need to get done.

The Solution

Most owner-operators fall into three categories: those that cannot afford an employee, those that do not want the commitment or hassle associated with having employees or those that do not have enough work to require an employee. There is a single answer to any of these issues. Outsource, outsource, outsource.

Most people think that outsourcing means large companies sending their work overseas to some remote location. Outsourcing is done on a much smaller scale and done locally. This is the affordable solution for owner-operators to get the work done on a tight budget.
