Normally when we measure impact in the business world, we’re looking for short term success to constantly repeat itself. That may work for larger companies because they have the means to invest over and over again, but that doesn’t work for smaller sized companies. Big companies can fail just like little companies however if they don’t grow when technology and markets change.

For a business to be really healthy, it has to have a long term plan for growth and investment.
Key Takeaways:
