WWN – How big do you want your business to be?

WWN – How big do you want your business to be?

Most may say as big as I can get! But not me. I need it to run along side my job as a Mum and a house wife, may sound dated but it’s true. My husband works long hours and unless I want the family to grow up in a cold, unwelcoming house with DIY meals I am unable to work the hours required for Skibz to become a monster of a business. Granted, I could get a cleaner, nanny and extra help but I don’t want to give ‘these’ jobs away as I (sort of) enjoy them. Plus, I like keeping Skibz small and manageable and therefore controllable.

My problem, (challenge I think they call it nowadays) has always been keeping the business at a size that allows me to ‘have it all’, albeit on a small scale. I have no answers, just continuing to work on a constant quest to do just that.

From 2017 onwards I endeavour to be as efficient as I can be, for example thinking more so that I do less 'meaningless doing' and taking on fewer projects but doing them better – quality not quantity I suppose you may call it. I want fresh new designs, new products but only designs that customers want and only products that people actual need and not ones that companies make us believe we need.

What goals do you have for 2017? Do you want something completely different for yourself or your family or to just do what you do but better? I’d love to know. helen@skibz.co.uk
