Tip #2 to Increase the Productivity of Your Business

Today, we are talking about Tip #2 to increase the productivity of your business, which is to: Work each day with a To-Do List.   I prefer to call this list a Prioritized Action List because everything should be in priority order all the time. Since most people call this list a TO DO List, we will use this label.  Creating a to-do list is one of the most efficient ways to increase the productivity of your business.  Crafting a detailed to-do list for you and your team will help them comprehend exactly what is expected of them each day.  This will motivate them to complete the tasks they’ve been given with the greatest efficiency and effectiveness.  If your assistant or team is known for procrastinating, this is an especially effective tool for encouraging them to stay focused.  When you don’t leave wiggle room for lollygagging, you’ll have one heck of a productive team.  Customize each To-Do List to each team member, so that each team member can be held directly accountable for their actions.  Encourage a team atmosphere, but convey there are consequences individually as well as collaboratively for tasks left incomplete.  You may use their individual performance to establish performance merits, and to encourage efficient team productivity.  Say for instance, you establish a goal that if the team can drive X number of dollars in revenue within 30 days, you will treat them to a nice dinner, gift certificate to an online store, or shopping spree worth $100 at their favorite store.   Tune in tomorrow for tip #3 to Increase the Productivity of Your Business.  To download a sample Prioritized Action List (PAL) that can get you and your team started, go to https://www.accountabilitycoach.com/pal-sample/.
