How Healthy Is Your Business?

When all the parts of your business are healthy and work together, they fuel profitable, sustainable growth. A healthy business also creates a work environment where everyone is engaged and thriving.

Just like a human body, a business needs all its parts to work together. When marketing is weak, sales have to overcompensate. Likewise, when your mission isn't clear, it's as though you're operating with a confused mind.

By taking this assessment you will quickly identify the parts of your business that need immediate attention.

To get started:

• Complete the assessment
• Review your results with Lynn Tickner, a Business Made Simple Certified Coach
• Work with your coach to master the skills you need to improve key areas of your business
