With a staggering 89% of workers admitting to wasting time at work, it begs the question of whether there’s a better way to do this. The traditional nine-to-five seems outdated, especially with businesses embracing remote working and improved flexibility. However, there is a risk that too much of this could grind productivity to a halt but not if managers learn how to streamline their business. If you want your office and employees (wherever they are) to maintain success, here is some advice for establishing a streamlined business.

Improve Your Website
Your company website is the first port of call for many customers and clients. Because of this, it pays to make it as good as possible. Knowing how to make your website a money-making machine is a great first step toward success and this all comes from rebuilding the website from the bottom up.

Essential website improvements can improve optimization, reduce website clutter, create valuable content, and fix broken links. These improvements immediately make your website more appealing, which means you don’t have to work as hard to attract customers. If people come to your website knowing it will be a stress-free experience, you can let it do the hard work for you.

Put Together a Coherent Team
Coherent teams are the backbone of any successful business. Although it can be tricky for them to mesh well at first, hiring people with the right attitude and complementing skills is vital for streamlining your business.

If everyone works well together, you can create a culture of accountability and camaraderie. With this, everyone is willing to go the extra mile for each other. You can address weaknesses and strengths and plan projects based on these to bring the best out of everyone.

Cut Out the Stuff You Hate
Every business owner has to do things they don’t enjoy. But, while this was previously considered all part of the job, it doesn’t have to be anymore. Whether you hate arranging meetings, scheduling appointments, or balancing the books, there is a solution.

Meetings are disruptive to the general workday, especially if all the information could have been in an email, so why not just send an email instead? Likewise, automating the office means you don’t waste time looking for free hours, while an outsourced Business Accountant means you never need to work out your expenses again.

Know What You’re Doing Every Day
It sounds obvious, but many offices would improve by simply knowing what they are doing every day. Establishing detailed daily and weekly planning means that everyone is aware of what they are doing and what everyone else is doing.

This means people can get on with projects and move on to the next task once they finish or while they wait for feedback. You won’t have employees waiting around for you to tell them what to do. Instead, they are empowered to do it.

Streamlined
A streamlined business does away with time-wasting and can achieve more in the same number of hours. Rather than employees sitting around and watching the clock, they will remain on-task for as long as they need, and if that means they can finish early, so be it.
