A Year of Change
Over the past year, our little company has become larger. It has been interesting dealing with our growth problems and implementing the changes we needed in order to grow.
Some of our more notable accomplishments that have made the past year have been small, while others have been larger. For example, the hiring of our IT manager Tom, was one of our bigger accomplishments. Instead of relying on me to solve all our IT problems and be the "go-to" guy, Tom has taken that role and allowed me to focus on the larger picture. We found him through a professional recruitment firm and he has been a valuable addition to our team.
It was Tom’s expertise that advised us to switch hosting companies to a larger, and more reliable e-commerce web hosting company. Our sales have increased due to better reliability and we have had very good feedback from our customers.
We have also increased our focus on management training this past year, and the results speak for themselves. Our management has been very effective at mobilizing our workforce to work at peak efficiency, and increase our bottom line. We will continue the training into 2008 as it has been a big benefit for us.
So what will the next year hold? I don’t know. But I predict that our earnings will be better and that we will make some changes to tweak our organization. I know that next year will be great!
