5 New Year Resolutions for Your Business This Year
Happy New Year!
We know you will all have big plans for your businesses and getting the basics right will help you make these work.
That’s why we’ve put together this list to start you on your way to reaching your new year aims and goals.
1. Workplace Wellness
With more people returning to work this year, workplace wellness is going to be important for you and your employees. This could be simply taking a walk outside at lunchtime, moving more if you work at a desk all day, working more productively in less hours, or continuing with hybrid working.
2. Buy Sustainably
You can make a difference to the plant this year by choosing to use sustainable and recycled products. Our ever-expanding range of eco friendly products include office supplies, furniture, clothing, janitorial supplies and technology. Simply click on the ‘Recycled & Eco Aware Range’ tab in the navigation bar on our website to see the full range and reduce your impact on the environment.
3. Buy Quality
You may have heard the quote “You buy cheaply, you pay dearly” [French Proverb] and this is something we believe in. Many of us are now ditching cheap, disposable or single use products in favour of alternatives that have longevity or that can be repaired. Buying quality items that stand the test of time is a good investment and is more sustainable. These items could include a good pen, quality made furniture, clothing made from natural fibres or office tech. If you need any advice, we're always here to help.
4. Keep Your Tools Up To Date
In order for us to be as productive as possible, we all need the right equipment to do our jobs. Make sure everyone has the tools to carry out their job effectively. This might be investing in the right tech to allow your team to do their job, finding a more efficient process, or ensuring a comfortable working environment to become happier and more productive.
5. Make Plans
It’s good to have something to strive for. Athletes, businesspeople, and high achievers all set goals to work towards. Goals give you a vision and help with short-term motivation for happiness and contentment. Think about personal or professional goals for the year ahead. It may be planning a holiday, adapting your company ethos or making simple changes to become healthier – make some plans for the new year and work towards them.
