<\/span>Something a little different for you today. A quiz you\u2019ll actually find useful (unlike all those BuzzFeed ones about which vegetable are you most like). Taking a minute to examine your small business\u2019s health this time of year will help shape how you reach for your goals the rest of 2023. <\/span><\/p>\n

And speaking of the health of your business \u2026. How is your staff situation these days?<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Hiring and keeping workers is still one of the greatest obstacles I find my Atlanta small business clients to be facing right now. Especially here at the beginning of the year, when workers tend to cut out after year-end bonuses in search of greener pastures at competing businesses \u2014 often larger ones. <\/p>\n

And the reality is, you as a small business owner are going to have a difficult time keeping up with the demands an inflationary environment has created, especially in terms of paying as competitively as, say, a big corporation. So, you\u2019re going to have to find new ways to hire and even retain your employees.<\/p>\n

But you can still do it.<\/p>\n

When you\u2019re on the hunt for a real A-gamer new hire, sometimes you don\u2019t have to look any further than your own team. Who is stepping up? Who is bringing lots of value? Who seems dedicated to building something with you?<\/p>\n

And keep this in mind: You have things to offer that big companies can\u2019t \u2014 simply because<\/i> you\u2019re small. Things like: more extensive job training, personalized support, and even just relational equity that serves to keep people around and happy.<\/p>\n

You can still attract those A-gamers to your team with what\u2019s already in your arsenal. <\/p>\n

Want to talk about anything related to staffing (or if you\u2019ve got questions after taking the quiz below), you know we\u2019re here to serve:

Regardless of if you need an appointment with our team here at Mark Perlberg CPA PLLC, I thought I’d give you something to keep you future-minded. Many of our Atlanta clients have already addressed (at least some of) these issues.<\/p>\n

These might be great topics of conversation when you do want to meet, though.<\/p>\n

My Atlanta Small Business Health Quiz (Part 1)<\/strong><\/span>
“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.” – Dr. Seuss<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Today, I want to give you some meat to chew about the underlying foundations of your business moving forward. <\/span><\/p>\n

The questions I\u2019m going to ask might raise a few concerns, and that’s fine; that’s what I\u2019m here for. Just know that alongside establishing clear measurables for success (KPI’s), these topics are exactly what effectively-growing Atlanta small businesses really need to get a handle on if you want to see your business soaring.<\/span><\/p>\n

I like to share these questions every so often with my people, simply because it’s good practice to continuously revisit these things and ensure we’re headed in the right direction.<\/span><\/p>\n

And further, as a business owner, it’s important that you take a REGULAR, clear-eyed look at the underlying legal and financial foundations for your business. <\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why I’m about to raise some issues to you and ask you some questions. If you take this process of evaluating your business seriously … it can really be transformative.<\/span><\/p>\n

Take a look at each of these questions, and if you are troubled by any of your answers \u2014 give us a call. We can take some time to look things over and solve any loopholes in your business strategy. <\/span><\/p>\n

Alright, now onto the questions: <\/span><\/p>\n
