The age-old question that business owners, leaders, sales, and operations managers never seem to quite nail down in a formal response is why people choose you to do business with. Why do your clients choose you over others!
Some will say it is because they offer a great product or service, excellent communication and so on. But what most responses always seem to leave out because of its in-depth discussion is quality, speed, dependability, and cost associated with all of these.
Not only are these important to the client, but to the business. Taking a proactive approach by reviewing and making your business operations as streamlined as possible, will help make the staff and business operate as smoothly as possible.
So, what is the purpose of spending time reviewing your operations profile?
