How to Grow Your Business Without Going Under

Small businesses need to pay attention to scalability in order to grow without going under. Scalability is the ability of small businesses to accommodate increasing amounts of orders, customers and purchases.

Growth

Businesses are started so that they grow bigger over time and expand their sales volume. If the business is indeed successful and begins to grow, it is necessary to adapt to the expansion process because it can put great strain on financial resources. A strategy needs to be put in place to allow expansion without any loss of momentum.

Strategy for Scalability

In order to create scalability, it is necessary to figure out a good plan well before expansion begins. That is because several steps will have to be undertaken to promote scalability. To allow your business to grow smoothly in the near future, you must make the right investments in equipment, IT infrastructure, software and other resources.

Benefit of the Strategy

The advantage of taking such judicious measures in anticipation of growth is that you will not have to make drastic changes over a very short period of time in the middle of growth itself. If you are caught unprepared and your business has the sudden good fortune of increased sales, then you will be forced to act very quickly.

Not Being Prepared Will Lead to Problems

You will have to make investments in a very short time period. This will produce a big stress on your financial resources and your working capital will plummet as a consequence. Low working capital is never a good thing because it can cut short daily operations (which depend on working capital to proceed). If your daily operations are hampered, then you won’t be able to meet the increased customer demand. As a result, clients will turn away and you will lose your opportunity to expand.

Real Life Scenario

As an example, suppose that you have an e-commerce site. You lead a successful marketing and SEO campaign which produces an influx of consumers to your website. If you are caught unprepared, then this can be very damaging. Increased traffic will put greater load on your servers and this will reduce your website performance. Poor customer experience will then turn consumers away. To avoid this scenario, it is best to invest in spare IT capacity in anticipation of expected growth. This will require major investment.

Increasing capacity well beforehand provides a big advantage for your finances. It is much easier to spend $100,000 over a period of 6 months than it is to invest the same amount in just a few days. Your working capital will remain healthy.

The Best Way Out

But very often we cannot anticipate sudden growth. Even if we do, this does not diminish the investment amount. As a result, financial support is necessary.
