    NOW is time to make plans to grow your business in 2025. Yes, even in this economy. Especially in this economy. But Doug, the news makes me feel I should hold back and wait. Question is, what data is the source of your feeling? How do you really know if the economy is favorable or unfavorable for growth? That’s what Paul Sparrow, managing partner for marketing firm Chief Outsiders, told my Vistage Worldwide, Inc. CEO Peer Advisory Group last week. He used data from ITR Economics, a reputable economic research firm with a record of 94.7% accuracy in forecasting the U.S. economy one year out—since 1985, as the basis for his plan. Your business is always in one of these economic phases: 1.      Recovery 2.      Accelerating Growth 3.      Slowing Growth 4.      Recession Different industries and businesses are in usually in different phases. Do you know which one you’re in…and which is coming next? Paul gave my CEOs a formula to find out for their business. They are now looking at their own data over the last 3 and 12 months, calculating rates of change, and comparing it to the ITR forecast--to make a plan. If you want to get ahead of your competition and increase your profit, you need a growth plan based on data…not feelings. Despite all the headwinds and continued slow growth the rest of this year… ...2025 is forecast to be a killer year—with the economy roaring back in virtually all sectors. So here are your priorities right now: - Avoid the emotions and do your research based on data - Manage your cash and resources well - Plan your strategy to capitalize on opportunities - Get your staffing and inventory ready - Prepare to execute better than your competition - And plan to step on the gas when the time is right. If you do this, you’ll be ready to win bigger next year. --------------------------------------------- Enjoy this? ♻️ Repost it to your network and follow Doug Haynes for more.

    Amid market headwinds, geopolitical uncertainties, and rising antitrust concerns, industrial acquirers are rethinking their M&A strategies. Despite a challenging environment, there are signs of optimism: 👍 Activity Shifts: Energy, technology, and healthcare are driving Q1 2024 deals. 👍 Antitrust Scrutiny: New HSR Act revisions mean more upfront disclosures, affecting M&A processes. 👍 Interest Rates: Acceptance of higher interest rates is paving the way for cautious optimism. Middle Market Growth Magazine advises preparing for divestitures to navigate antitrust concerns effectively. With $3 trillion+ in buying power, strategic acquisitions could dominate the market in the next 18 months. https://bit.ly/4cBkLev #PrivateEquiity #CEO #BusinessStrategy
