Small Business Owners: New Year’s Resolutions for Growth

Dec. 18, 2009 - PRLog -- To lay the groundwork for a prosperous 2010, Seattle Biz Coach Terry Corbell says late December is the perfect time for New Year’s resolutions and planning.

His Web site, http://www.bizcoachinfo.com, provides 31 steps for small business owners.

“Wall Street profits are reportedly $49.7 billion for the first nine months of 2009, but it’s been a zero sum game for most small business owners,” says Seattle business consultant Terry Corbell. “Whether it's a home business or larger firms, they haven’t enjoyed a bailout but now is a perfect time to wipe the slate clean and plan for a prosperous New Year.”

Unlike Wall Street where bonuses will be 40 percent higher in 2009, the Seattle management consultant says small business owners will continue to face a tough environment and will have to be more strategic for a breakout year.

His tips from marketing to customer service are in the column entitled, “New Year’s Resolutions to Recover from the Great Recession.”

Performance-enhancing strategies and best-practices management are included in his business-coaching topics: Marketing/Sales, Human Resources, Operations, Planning, Finance, Technology and Public Policy.

His expertise and rich background are why the New York Times featured him twice. The first article’s headline sums up his expertise: “Been There... Done That... Here's How.”

He has provided confidential business solutions for Seattle-area companies ranging from high-tech to professional service firms, and for the public sector since 1992.

Mr. Corbell is writing a book tentatively entitled, “How to Watch Your Back in the Jungle – Avoiding Business Predators.”
