Three Resolutions You Should Make For Your Business In 2013
2012 was an important year for business. We saw the emergence of new social networks
that allow companies to connect with customers in innovative ways. Online businesses
united in the face ofSOPA legislation, demonstrating the value placed on freedom of
communication. And, of course, industry continues to expand in the wake of the global
financial crisis. All that said, 2013 is set to be a defining year for companies worldwide.
                                      Your success this year, or lack thereof, will depend on
                                      how quickly you can institute profitable strategies right
                                      off the bat. To help you out, here are three New Years
                                      resolutions you should implement to get the year off to
                                      a great start!

                                     1. Diversify Communication Channels

                                     Business      presence     on Facebook and Twitter has
                                     become incredibly commonplace, where businesses
can connect with customers more often and more conveniently. However, new social
networks such as Pinterest allow for creative discussions and out-of-the box business
strategies. Image-based communication is becoming quite popular, so if you can
incorporate that into your marketing and customer service efforts, it is worthwhile to do
so. In addition, internal social networks such as Yammer give management and employees
a direct, casual means of discussion that allows for seamless collaboration.

2. Cut Down On Software Clutter

Bloatware causes inefficient business operations and confusing data manipulation.
Whereas in the past, software existed in a vacuum, today software offers integrations that
ensure each individual component serves its purpose in a larger network. If you haven’t
done so recently, 2013 is the year to explore new software options to ensure that your
business has the ability to operate at optimal efficiency for the foreseeable future.

3. Get Complete Visibility Into Projects and Resources

While it does require some time to implement and monitor, organization-wide
accountability is a goal that every business should strive to achieve in 2013. Whether you
are assigning people to projects or determining the profitability of an individual employee’s
activities, a resource management system based on solid time-data will allow you to pursue
value with minimal risk. Failure to maintain awareness of all of your operations can result
in wasted time or failed projects, an unnecessary risk given the availability of robust time
management options.
Follow these resolutions, and your company will be set to take the business world by storm
in 2013. The opportunity is there this year, so waste no time in seizing it right away!
