The Importance of Seeing The “Big” Picture

When you’re starting a business, seeing the “big” picture is important. Many travel entrepreneurs have stated that had they known about the small details in their business, they may not have started it in the first place. This is because many of us get bogged down by all the small details, and often these small inconveniences can put us off from starting something new.

For those of you new to the travel industry, (and you old timers too), here are a few tips to help you stay focused on the “big” picture:

#1 – Don’t Worry. It’s easy to worry about the fine details of starting a business, but it’s important not to get stuck on these. Keep in mind that whatever you don’t know how to do, you can learn or get help with. In business, there are services and experts for just about anything you can imagine. You can always turn to them for help when the time comes. But as the old saying goes – “I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.”

#2 – Concentrate on your big goals. Instead of worrying about all the small details, write down your big goals. If you’d like to launch your new product in two months time, aim for that. If you’d like to start offering a new service, aim for that. Once you have your big goal set, all the small details will fall into place.

#3 – Make sure it will work. Saying, “don’t worry about the small details” doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t thoroughly research your venture. It just means that you’ll put your efforts into researching your market to ensure that your new venture stands a good chance of being profitable. There are certain big things like target market, product approach and finding customers that warrant your attention. Other smaller issues, like the graphics on your business card, can be worked out in due time.

#4 – Just do it. In business, speed often pays off. If you have a great idea, research it quickly and put the necessary steps in place to take action on that idea. Good business insight often means being open and receptive to the opportunities and ideas that are all around us. Had many successful entrepreneurs sat on the fence for too long, we may not have such wonderful innovations today.
