Our View on Impact Business Entrepreneurs’ Challenges

Challenge #1

Managing growth

Similar to all entrepreneurs, there is always a need to acquire or grow clients, while aligning internal operations and people to deliver.

Challenge #2

Managing impact

But will focusing on growth distract from the original purpose of the enterprise?  This is constant struggle makes the life of impact business entrepreneurs even more challenging.

​

Helping Impact Business to answer these questions for the next stage

How to achieve sustainable growth? 

It is always difficult to manage both the topline and bottom line well.  Revenue may become stagnant despite constant overtime work.  On the other hand, revenue may spike, but shall capacity be added given the expansion risks?

How to balance growth and purpose?

Entrepreneurs usually face this emotional challenge – shall his/her energy focuses on prioritizing purpose over profit?  Shall the company rely on external fundings to expand but then spread itself thin over a number of projects? Making decisions of this nature requires an understanding of both the business environment (how quick/ slow the business should grow given the competition) and the heart of the founding entrepreneurs. operate as an NGO (prioritize purpose over profit but need to rely on external funding instead of fully self-sustainable).

How to select the right vendor/ people to partner? 

Vendor and partner selection is an inevitable part of business expansion.  Even though failures are a norm in running a business, cost of selecting a wrong one tends to be costly.  How can impact business entrepreneurs be smarter in investing in a vendor relationship given the current stage of their business?

How shall I manage my team?

People are an integral part of running an enterprise.  But addressing team performance, especially those of the founding team members, can be tricky and require guidance.
