Unlike the Banks Going Down in Flames, You Need to Build Value Into Your Tech Business

Wow. Another week gone by and another bank down the tubes. That's what happens when you build your business around fluff. No substance just to make a buck will always come back to bite you.

The tech sector is still going strong and believe it or not it will be a good thing for all of you that work as consultants to the banking industry. With all of the buyouts and bail outs going on, there will be a huge need for systems integration and data migration. Get it while it's hot!

No what size your business is, 1 man show to 100 people, it must be run like a business to build value for your clients and you as well. Obviously bad things can bring a business down but a good foundation will keep it from crumbling.

Unfortunately even good things like a surge in new found revenue can put a business on the rocks. That's what happens when the business owner does not have the infrastructure to handle a growth spurt (read as bad/no hiring practices, no business metrics in place, no/bad financial systems used, no/weak business processes and systems in place, non-existent client management systems, lack of time management, leadership problems, etc)

Oh yeah, you heard me correctly. If you pour all of your time into marketing, hit the mother lode you wished for and double or triple your revenue, you could be heading for big trouble. I've had almost as many clients fail due to a doubling (or more) in revenue as those that failed due to other "bad" issues.

A blueprint to success that includes all aspects of your business is the only way to build your technology company for yourself and for happy clients.
