Lost in Documents and Mails - Dear Entrepreneurs – Happy New Year 2012, but Cleanup the Mess before you Kickstart 2012


It’s an Indian tradition to cleaup one’s house during Diwali – people do it inside out (white washing etc etc) and following the same trend, startups too need to clean up their house.

For people like me who didn’t follow this, its high time now….year end awaits us…in just a couple of days
At least, finalization of Accounts till year end is a must..

Many a times (actually most of the times), you end up deprioritizing some features who lose out to other important ones. They end up becoming a second priority feature – and eventually the list of second priority piles up and is generally lost in the entire cycle.

Bring back the list and ask yourself – which ones were really important? There are a certain things like cleaning up the mail-box, documenting the loose sheets which are generally lost in the ‘big scheme of things’.

Can one of those improve your efficiency and overall productivity enticing you to work for longer hours ?
If yes, then do it.

Just finishing off the year with Financial results may not be the right idea….

This New year, take a look from the Micro perspective, the Marketing strategy, the lags in operational performance, employee productivity,  the overall product visibility and the response rates from advertisements which you would have liked to play as a Key Performance Indicator.

Meanwhile, First Big Leap wishes Happy New Year to all !!!

Enjoy the last day of the year 2011, party hard and have a good time with your family.
And do tell us what mess are you cleaning today?
