FocusProject

The success of your entire business is determined by your ability to successfully complete your projects.

Think about it. In almost any business its true. It doesn’t matter if you develop software, launch new products, build things or plan events – your success is determined by successfully completing projects. The business that successfully completes its projects will slaughter the competition.

The business that successfully completes their projects will slaughter the competition.

There are a few keys to getting projects done.

1. Clear goals and tasks. EVERYONE must know what to do and when it must be completed. Most project tasks are dependent on other tasks. The problem is that most tasks never get done. The reason is there is no accountability. That leads us to the next point..

2. Hold people Accountable. With Focusproject, the progress and status of everyones goals and task can be seen by the entire project team. In addition, with a few clicks you can see a chart showing who gets things done and who is holding up progress. Its amazing how suddenly things start to get done when progress is exposed for everyone to see. What gets measured gets done. It’s that simple.

3. Focus on one thing at a time and get it done. Projects can seem daunting. You look at all the tasks and people involved and they look big and complex. So simply look at the one task at a time and get it done.

4. Simplify. Life is already too complex. The last thing we need is some complex software to run our complex projects. It doesn’t need to be that way! Focusproject was designed to be simple. It does not do everything Microsoft Project does. That is not the idea. We have just created a simple way to organize information.

5. Be Flexible. Things change. You may need to insert a new task, remove a task or change the order of a task. No problem! Focusproject makes it easy. Most projects change and we have made it easy to modify and change things on the fly.

We have been developing and using FocusProject internally in our construction business for years. Just recently we’ve decided to open it up to the world and let other businesses try it. For now our beta version is absolutely free. We just ask that you tell your friends and collegues and give us some feedback. Set up an account -and use it free today.
