This is just TOO MUCH information!

By Jim Connolly | May 9, 2011

Too much really is too much.

  • If you get too many inquiries in too short a timespan, you can’t respond to them effectively or as swiftly as you should.
  • If you attract too much traffic to your website, your servers will go down.
  • If you take on too many new clients, too closely together, the quality of the service they receive from you will dip.
  • If you have too much “spare time” you are 100% definitely neglecting something important.

Aim for balanced growth

Success in business means developing the correct balance.  As soon as we introduce too much of anything, the balance is altered and other areas suffer a negative imbalance.

Focus your efforts on growing your business in a balanced way.  Check your resources.  Ensure you have the capacity in place for when it’s needed.
