Strategic Questions To Ask About Your Business Writing, From Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach
Business writing is an art, in my opinion, and good business writing is learned by experience, reading what others write, formal education opportunities, and through the help of coaches, mentors, et al. When we write in our businesses, we are often composing our business communications under some time constraint and that means there is an opportunity for mistakes. Many simple mistakes are made repeatedly and they have a huge impact on the response and your client’s satisfaction. A good word of advice is to develop a list of questions or call it a checklist to use for your business writing. This will help ensure higher quality written business communications. So, with that in mind, Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach offers the following list of ten (10) questions to ask yourself about your business writing endeavors.

9.2 Barriers to financing women entrepreneurs: Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
Although women entrepreneurs have consistently proven to be good credit risks (as a result of good repayment histories), limited access to credit for both new and growing women-owned firms is confirmed by researchers and key informants as a major constraint.

Financial Management : Constraints of growth-oriented enterprises
Whereas the enterprise managers are well aware of the importance of external finance, they seem to underestimate the importance of financial management. This is an issue that the entrepreneurs did not raise directly themselves as a constraint, but something that was deduced from analyzing the empirical data.

Conclusion: Constraints of growth-oriented enterprises in the southern and eastern African region
Enterprises that are about to grow and employ 5-15 people and enterprises that are in the process of growing and employ 10-30 people, both claim that their most important constraint is short- and long-term capital.

Push vs. Pull Processes
Waste is a constraint. Reducing waste in your organization is one the easiest ways of reducing constraints.

Identify your Marketing Constraint
As I mention in a previous post: Every System, typically has relatively few constraints. However, to operate at maximum efficiency, the limiting constraint must be identified. Five Steps of Continuous Improvement help identify and improve the constraint. How do I correlate the Marketing Hourglass with the Theory of Constraints? TOC uses the weakest link, a chain as a visual in working with throughput.

Ever hear of the term Value Stream Marketing?
My E-book on applying the Theory of Constraints to the Marketing Hourglass is a good example on how one part of the marketing process may be limiting your overall revenue. If you find that constraint what would you do with it? How would you improve it? I would first start examining what got the person there to begin with and then increase the value of your offering based on the previous offer. If you are not getting enough referrals or repeat customers, think about an offer you could create that would add additional value to them. Give them something that they can simply not refuse. What would shake them up a bit?

Value Stream Marketing: It’s just not about the Value
Of course when I start discussing flow, I am going to start discussing Theory of Constraints. In your marketing process, you will have numerous constraints but Goldratt claims that at any given time, there is only one constraint. That constraint is much like the neck of an hourglass and will limit the entire system. Actually, if it is well managed you could throttle your process accordingly (We only wish we could that). Simply doubling the efforts in a constraint could be the easy solution and may just move the constraint to another area. However, we operate in a more complicated world than that. Something else usually cases something else to happen.

How To Improve Your Sales
Are your sales where you want them to be? For most sellers and small business people, the answer is no, even if you are at a high level already. Do you know why they are not where you want them to be? Again, for most people the answer is no, even though you may have an idea as to why. So, where is the constraint in your sales process? It is with awareness of where your constraint or constraints are that you can learn what you need to do, how to do it, and take action on what you need to do. And achieve the results that you want.

Bondage or Liberty, The Choice is Yours.
The choice of being bound and being at liberty is one we make for ourselves. There are many things that restrain us and hold us in places we would rather not be. How we face them mentally is where the captivity gains control. No matter how great the constraint we still have the ability to limit it in our minds.
