Being
Efficient: Improving Your Business from the Inside Out

What is one characteristic that
all great businesses have? Efficiency.
Efficiency is the effective use of time such that the greatest benefit (as
defined by the business
owner) is achieved. Great businesses are efficient in their product
development; Efficient in marking that product; Efficient in hiring
decisions.
Side note: All
of these will have blog posts devoted to them going forward,
so stay tuned!
But before a business can be
outwardly efficient, it must be inwardly efficient; Or as my grandmother
used to say, "Getting one's own house in order."
Many businesses - certainly successful and rewarding ones - start with an
idea. That idea is then talked out between friends, those friends become
partners, and away they go. Is the time taken at the outset to ensure
that, for example, the agreement governing their business relationship is where
it needs to be? Are their vendor agreements in order? What about employee
handbooks and how internal employee
disputes will be
handled? Do they agree on hiring approach and decisions?
Each of the questions above are
issues I did not make up, but rather have been subjects of litigation I've personally experienced in the
last fifteen years. We want to help you avoid those disputes.
Which brings me to my point: We want to help you. Allow an
attorney to review your contracts
and corporate documents and
tell you where, from personal experience, they’ve seen litigation arise. Allow an attorney to help
you develop your vendor contracts so that there are no questions in your
mind with regard to expectations. Allow an attorney to develop an employee handbook that addresses
such issues as insurance,
compensation and incentives, and workplace dispute resolution. Let an
attorney counsel you on hiring methods based on tried and true team building
techniques.
There's that word again. Let
us, help you, become efficient.
