How to Create a Prosperous and Cost-effective Business in the Current Climate

by Lewis Humphries
03/05/2017

There are many challenges facing businesses in the modern age, particularly as the macroeconomic climate continues to worsen. In fact, as inflation continues to rise while real wage growth shrinks, businesses may soon be forced to contend with reduced consumer spending and diminishing demand.

While this trend is cyclical, however, there are others that remain omnipresent and applicable across all markets.

Take the need to drive growth while minimising costs, for example, which is key to maintaining a profitable and sustainable venture over time. Here are some steps towards achieving this:

  1. Lease Rather Than Own Hardware

If you look at the evolution that has taken place in the worlds of business and commerce in the last decade, there has been a clear shift towards flexible and agile commercial solutions. This is particularly evident in disciplines such as recruitment, where brands are now able to hire temporary workers from a global pool of talent on the basis of individual projects.

The same principle applies to hardware, as it is now common practice for firms to lease pieces of equipment rather than buy them outright. This not only reduces start-up costs, but it also creates an opportunity to transfer the cost of repairs and maintenance onto providers.

Just by wary when seeking a photocopier lease or entering into similar arrangements, however, as you will need to compare the market comprehensively and understand your precise needs before making an informed decision.

  1. Use Technology and Automation to Enhance Your Business

On a similar note, we have also seen automation play an increasingly integral role in various aspects of business in the modern age.

While automation is often viewed with cynicism, however, its purpose is often misunderstood by firms across the UK. Rather than being intended to directly replace human members of staff, for example, automation has been designed to enhance the customer experience and optimise the value that people can add to individual businesses.

If you look at touch screen kiosks from Cammax Limited, for example, you will see how technology has been deployed to streamline the consumer experience and increase the speed of individual transactions. While this negates the need to employ humans at the point of sale, however, employees can simply be deployed elsewhere in the venture to provide strategic help and insight.

Touch screens are now increasingly prominent across markets, while similar technology is also having a similar impact on brands. It is also central to maintaining a cost-effective and efficient business, and one which meets customer expectations in the digital age.

  1. Grow Organically and in-line with Demand

This is a fundamental rule of business, and one that is all too easily overlooked by eager or overly cautious entrepreneurs with a desire to succeed. Make no mistake; however, attempting to force growth within your venture (or failing to grow in line with demand) can significantly derail your venture, while impacting negatively on its profitability.

Instead, it is far better to grow organically in line with demand, as this ensures that you are able to build the resources and an underlying infrastructure that can cope with higher volumes of work.

In many ways, having an agile business model can help with this, as it helps you to respond to periods of growth by investing in temporary, pop-up retail outlets and remote workers.

This way, you can take on additional work as the demand for your products or services grows, while experimenting to determine the best way of developing your infrastructure.
