What My Latest Expansion Taught Me
On August 16, 2021, my husband and I expanded our Child Care Business into Atlanta Georgia. If I can be honest, this expansion stretched my faith. It was the scariest business move that I had ever made and the best move that I could have ever made.
God has ordered our steps to a growing city, my Husband and I have met some amazing people, the vision of the business has been embraced, and the opportunities have been unlimited.
In fact, we’ve been in business for over 27 years, however the past five years has felt like a brand-new exciting Journey and the best is yet to come.
Before this expansion, we expanded four times in our hometown, however, expanding across state lines was different and I want to share with you today five vital details that my latest expansion taught me.
- If you feel the need to expand, do your research on the city where you want to expand and follow your gut.
- Write the vision for your expansion, because once you write the vision, you activate the plan.
- Stay Open minded, because you will have many deals to fall through, but there is only one deal for you.
- The systems that work where you are now, may no longer be effective where you are going.
- Your next expansion will require a different version of you, keep investing in yourself as a leader. Keep reading new books and learning new leadership skills.
Most of all, this expansion has taught me that it is important to come out of your comfort zone, because great things happen outside of your comfort zone!
