Business Definitions

Welcome To Business Jargon 101

The business world has a jargon all its own, one that can seem incomprehensible to ordinary mortals. We’ve taken some of the most common terms and tried to translate them into plain English.

That’s one of the things Ron Sturgeon, Mr. Mission Possible, is best at-putting the guiding principles of successful entrepreneurship into simple, plainspoken language. Ron has a way of cutting through the B.S. and getting directly to the point. That’s because he knows what he’s talking about-when you take several companies and build them into multimillion-dollar operations, you know you’re doing something right!

Worth Taking A Look

There’s more to some of the phrases we’ve collected than meets the eye. Take business success, for example. For some, that means making as much money as possible as quickly as possible. For others, it means above-average results over an extended period. And for others, it might mean having the chance to do the sort of things they’ve always wanted to do. See? Not as simple as it might seem at first.

There’s a common element in all the definitions. No matter whether you’re just starting a business, expanding a business or simply working to grow it over the long term, it’s always a good idea to make sure your plans and ideas are vetted by a seasoned entrepreneur who can offer business mentoring. And it never hurts to have someone from outside the organization offer a different perspective, either.

Sometimes that can be done in something as simple as a speaking engagement. On other occasions, it might call for some consulting. And others might call for a mix of a veteran entrepreneur and the people who know your business best-owners just like you. That’s what peer benchmarking groups are all about. Ron can help you find the solution that works for your business!
