Essential Functions of a Small Business: Creating An Organisational Structure For Your Business

In this video, I share the essential functions of a small business. Why? Well, growing a small business (or any size business for that matter) requires essential functions that cannot be ignored. No matter what industry you’re in or what type of business you own, you must understand the essential functions your business needs to scale.

If you want to be the kickass CEO of your business that I know you can be (and avoid burning out) you’ve got to work on your business instead of in it.

So, what are the essential functions of a business? And how can you create an organisational structure for your business? Watch today’s video to find out and don’t forget to subscribe for more videos like this one!

In this video, I cover:

• Essential functions of a business
• Why you cannot ignore these functions
• How having these essential functions for a small business can help your business grow
• Creating an organisational structure for your business
• …so much more!

I post a new video every Wednesday, so please subscribe to this channel (CEO Entrepreneur by Tamer Shahin) NOW

ABOUT ME

Hi! I’m Dr. Tamer Shahin, the Founder & CEO of CEO Entrepreneur, where we help small business owners scale their businesses, without sacrificing their lifestyle, wellbeing, or freedom. I’m also a Serial Entrepreneur, TEDx speaker, Executive Coach, Consultant, Author, Speaker, Investor, and now… I'm a ‘YouTuber.’

I’ve grown several multi-million-dollar businesses from scratch. Some of these businesses were massively successful and others turned out to be catastrophic failures! Nonetheless, I picked myself up and learned a lot from all of my extraordinary success and catastrophic adversity.

Now, I’m taking everything I’ve learned and leveraging it to create this YouTube channel and help people like YOU scale your business to astronomical heights. Each week, I’ll be sharing tactics, tips, tools, and insights to help transform you into a “cool as a cucumber” CEO.

I just wrote down all the roles in my business and identified 21 different 'departments' and I'm currently doing 20 of them!This is clarity indeed. Armed with this information I can start working out who to hire!

[Exercisewithleah]

This really helped! I decided to stop having everything in my head and write a business plan instead of using sticky notes everywhere I realised that I have most things written down correctly I just overwhelmed myself! I’d recommend everyone to do a business plan for yourself

Very well-thought-out video. My favorite moments were, You may need IT like it's 2020, lol. The second one was, well, I forgot because the first one had me rolling with the office clip. I have not read the book Rocket Fuel but you are correct, I am a visionary who constantly tries to be the Integrator. As you know the struggle of a Solepowered CEO is finding the right people in the right seats and how to afford them. I appreciate your video mostly because I assume you have at one time been through the same struggles.
