    The Builder

    Foundation Stage

    Your company is at the beginning of its journey and there is much to do. You have spent a great deal of your time building and refining your business idea.

    The good news is you’re building a solid foundation for your business, and the time and effort you’re putting in now will be worth it soon. With the right guidance, you’ll be able to take the next step.

    Here’s what you need to do:

    1. Get the ground work done. If you haven’t done so before, small things like registering your business, opening a bank account or completing your financials will make you feel like you’re making progress.
    2. Identify simple processes and systems to implement. This helps you add some structure to your work and will help you achieve a more seamless growth when you begin adding new people to your team.
    3. Seek help. No one builds a successful business alone, it’s done with the support of friends and family, mentors and advisors. Tools like our SME Toolkit are designed to provide insights, advice and tips on starting, managing and growing a successful business.

    Maturity/Self-Sustainability Stage

    At this stage, your organization is blossoming. It’s an exciting time for everyone. You’ve been in a consistent growth phase for more than 2 years. Your focus now is more strategic, and you want to begin looking outward to develop a network beyond the immediate industry.

    Here’s what you need to do:

    1. Create a strategic growth plan for your business. Identify where you want the business to be in the next three to five years. Set clear goals along the way.
    2. Think about your financing and ask yourself what your top three options are to secure financing for your business plans. List them and assess what the best opportunities are.
    3. Reach out to your trusted advisors and mentors to seek their advice. They’ve been around the block and may have a fresh perspective to share, or would have had experiences worth learning from.
