New Future in 2010
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010 | Author: Chantal

I have been continually impressed with the growth of Key Administration since its launch date back in April of 2008. As a startup business, I worried many times, not on the concept of the business, but mainly for the 2 steps forward, one step back process we experienced over and over again, especially in the past few months. 

However the excitment of its future is becoming. Back in the fall, Key Administration prepared to launch a few sister sites to expand services offered to their ever-growing clientele. Even with all the planning, the resources, the new team members… something wasn’t “right” - something was off.

And it finally dawned on me what that something was. I was thinking too big.

Too Big? Is that even possible?

In this case for sure. So the Key Administration team has reformatted our bases to come up with sometimes even more special. In this process, our goal is to bring Key Administration up to its potential. We are not putting aside our sister site ideas - we are incorporating them into our Administration business.

So stay tuned for more exciting news including a new site launch in the upcoming weeks.

I’m getting so excited!!!!!!

Are you properly planning for your success?

Does this sound familiar?

You suddenly have an idea. This idea is genial. Absolutely Fan.Ta.Bu.Lous!

You sit at your desk, pen in hand (or keyboard…) and start working on this idea. In fact, you stay up most of the night because this idea is well worth it. There’s a huge need for it AND it’s going to generate loads of income.

You spend a few days completely intoxicated with your new found idea. Sooner or later, you run into an obstacle or two. You deal with these yourself but find you’re getting discouraged with distractions and eventually this brilliant idea is put on the back burner… and slowly forgotten about.

It’s never truly forgotten because months, even years down the road, you’re filled with regret. “I should have’s” fill that void to justify the failure but you never really move forward with them.

So what went wrong? Any guesses?

You should have planned!

This step is so critical, people make a living at doing just that – PROJECT MANAGEMENT… and they make good decent money too!

Project management requires more than just a short list of to-dos. You must really dissect every little piece of the project and ensure it is all accounted for.

“Yeah… but that’s going to take more time to do! I’m not experienced and I’ll get overwhelmed! Forget it!”

Well then forget your idea as well… If you can’t take the time to plan or hire someone to help you, you’ll find yourself in the above scenario. Simple. As. That!
