Planning a business pause as a Core Operational Practice is likely the best decision you can make when starting your business. Not only will pausing your business give you time to take a much-deserved break, but it will also give you an opportunity to look forward to something that is not related directly to work, but rather a vacation or a getaway.
Here are 3 tips you can use to help execute your business pause as an owner of your business or a leader in a company you work for.
- Plan and schedule for the operational pause of your business far enough in advance to not negatively impact clients, customers, or patients. I like to schedule program pauses one year in advance especially for programs that have a waiting list or are in high demand.
- Inform the team members, referral partners, business partners, clients, and customers/patients of the pause in business operations so they can plan ahead and reduce any negative impact. The sooner you inform all those affected by the pause, the sooner arrangements can be completed.
- Do not start any new initiatives two weeks up to one month before a program pause so team members can complete deliverables that may be due during the business pause. For example, if you plan to continue social media posting, you may want to complete all your posts one month prior to the pause and schedule the media to automatically post so you are still visible on social channels during your business pause. You can check out episode 39 for more information regarding automating your social media scheduling.
Planning for a business pause is a great strategy and I highly encourage this practice to start early in your entrepreneurial journey to help you regroup, refocus and recuperate!
