How better managing your time improves your business finance


It doesn't take a brain surgeon (even a fake one) to see that a sloppy management of time will lead to sloppiness eventually in business finances. Business finances are complicated; finance is one of the most complicated areas of business, and one of the most important, too, as that's what business is all about-good, prosperous finances!

Let's discuss further how better managing your time improves your business finance.


- To better manage your time and thus improve your business finance, we suggest that you make a careful list of what you do throughout the day, starting with your morning ritual all the way up till when you close shop and go home. The point is to manage your time better and thus improve your business finance. This means that you'll have to be very, very exact in your assessment of how you spend your time each day. In fact, you might want to think about the process this way: the more accurate you are regarding the way you spend your day, the more accurate you'll be when it comes to your business finances. That should put a bur under your saddle! In business, time means money, and money means you live another day, and living another day means perhaps you'll make more money, and if this pattern repeats itself enough, who knows?-bigger house, nicer car, kids in college. It's crucial that you better manage your time, and thus better manage your money.

- So, your goal is to better manage your time and thus improve your business finances, and the first step is to make a strict accounting of what you do all day. Ask yourselves these questions when trying to get an accounting of how you spend your time. How much time do I spend "getting ready" in the morning, and what does "getting ready" actually entail? Am I managing my morning time in such a way that it will improve my business finance? Am I, for example, dragging my "morning ritual" into work with me?-that is, chatting with employees, having a second and third cup of coffee while talking with the secretary about last night's television show, sitting at your desk staring into space, emailing a few friends, checking your phone messages, fixing your hair in the bathroom, sending a joke email to your employees-and so on and so forth-you get it. Almost every business leader is guilty of these little time indiscretions at some point in his or her career. It's hard to be in a position of responsibility, because no one's taking account of your every move. Therefore, you've got to manage your time, and thus your business finance, wisely on your own.

- Another important step for managing your time better in order to improve your business finance is to get your accountants involved. Your accountants are trained to know everything about business finance, and your accountants should know everything about your business finance especially. Chances are, they'll have good tips and advice on how to better manage company time and thus better manage company finances. Now you'll be getting into areas a little more complicated (and even controversial) than how many bathroom breaks you took to straighten your tie that day. It could be that little company traditions such as weekly informal meetings to discuss "whatever" (i.e. what's bothering people, what they'd like to see in the vending machines, who's going to win the super bowl, etc.), are really a big waste of time and are wreaking havoc on your business finances. Maybe your accountants will have a list of such activities that, once cut, would improve your company finances considerably. This, of course, means that once you decide to better manage your time in order to improve company finances, you'll have to be ready to make personal sacrifices as well as company sacrifices.
