Have you ever wondered when it’s the right time to add a workflow management app to your surveying or civil engineering business? I’ve chatted with a bunch of surveyors, business owners, managers, and even some side-hustling solo entrepreneurs. I’ve dealt with new buyers, sellers, and companies that have merged. Based on my experience, here are the three main situations when companies are ready to level up their operations and get more efficient:
- Transition from solopreneur to managing new employees. So, the owner wants to start things off on the right foot instead of having to fix things later. Right now, things are running smoothly with mostly manual processes and a couple of apps, but the owner knows it’s important to get organized now so that new employees can easily learn the ropes.
- Growth. Business is good. Our company has expanded, and we now have a team of 20 to over 50 people. We need to keep everyone in the loop about the progress of all our projects and proposals. We need to be super organized and efficient. The best way to do that is to have everyone use the same app. This app is a lifesaver because it helps us organize our data, tasks, and schedules. It also gives us real-time profitability reports, which is a huge plus.Right now, a lot of companies are on the same page. That’s a good thing. But it also means taking project management seriously. Without a management system that connects tasks, timesheets, and Quickbooks, profits can easily slip through the cracks.
- Position the Company for sale. So, this 70-year-old surveyor dude found me at my first surveying conference. He was all about this Qfactor thing because he knew the younger generation of owners would want to use fancy software to manage their stuff. Pretty smart, huh? By uploading years of client projects, they can easily measure their worth, which makes their business worth more when they sell it.
If any of those situations sound familiar, it’s time to take a step back and assess your current situation. What are your goals for the next few years? What kind of growth do you want to achieve? Once you have a clear understanding of your needs, you can start to develop a plan for how you’ll reach them.
Don’t wait until tomorrow to start working on your 2025 growth plan. The sooner you start, the better positioned you’ll be to achieve your goals.
I can help you with that. As the founder and developer of Qfactor, I have a really cool web app to share with you. Qfactor is a powerful tool that can help you track your progress, identify areas for improvement, and make data-driven decisions.
It’s grown almost entirely by word-of-mouth from satisfied clients. That’s because Qfactor is not just another piece of software. It’s a tool that can help you transform your business.
Our users have a better experience every year as they use it more and more often. That’s because Qfactor is constantly evolving. We’re always adding new features and improving the user interface.
