It’s Time to Organize for 2019 - Business Success Consulting Group

The end of the year is approaching fast, which means that 2019 is right around the corner! It’s time to tackle organizational challenges now so your new year begins smoothly. Here are some of the main pain points that need organization is most companies:

Email and Computer Clutter

Unfortunately, computers are made to store information, which makes it easy to have clutter which no one knows about except the user of the computer. However, this kind of clutter weighs on one’s mind and can cause one to lose track of things just as if these piles of folders were sitting on one’s desktop. Get the entire office to tackle computer clutter throughout the holidays so that they can come in on January 2nd with a neat, organized computer.

Read Anything Set Aside for Later

We have all run into articles or books that we didn’t have time to read when we encountered them, so we set them aside for later. Go through your bookmarks, books, notes, and more and read anything vital to your company or industry. Reducing or eliminating this backlog will help you get up-to-date on your industry.

Install Tech Upgrades

The end of the year is a great time to get your IT team to upgrade your technology and install software updates. Additionally, if you’ve purchased new software or technology systems, it may be time to have the whole office go through training to understand every aspect of your new purchase.

Set Up Automation

There are many aspects of a business which can be automated, including billing, followup emails, newsletters, social media posts, production, and more. Take advantage of automation so your staff can move forward with other projects

Create A System to Prevent Backlogs

Many offices have hot spots where things pile up. Examine these areas and work out new ways to prevent the pileup and allow projects to move through your business smoothly.

Set Up a Better Floor Plan

If your business floor plan doesn’t make sense, take some time to rework it on paper or utilize an organizational system to make your office more efficient. Once your new floorplan is completely worked out to your satisfaction, put it into practice.
