I’ve spent a lot of time speaking to business owners about the impact of slow internet on their business. It amazes me when business owners tell me that “there’s nothing better available”, “we come in on the weekend to get the work done” or “we can’t afford it”.
Time is the one resource that is more precious than any other.
- It costs a lot of money to hire staff – Australia has amongst the highest wage costs according to OECD data
- You can’t get time back (unless you’re Marty McFly of course)
Did you realise that losing 20 minutes of productivity a day equates to 3 days a year. Time that you’ll never get back in your life.
Now, when we look at the compounding effect of this lost time and money on your business
- Team of 5 = 15 Days a Year or $2,194 in Wages
- Team of 10 = 30 Days a Year or $4,389 Wages
- Team of 20 = 60 Days a Year or $8,779 Wages
- Team of 50 = 150 Days a Year or $21,948 in Wages
*Wage data based on the Fairwork minimum wage of $18.29/Hr
Of course I haven’t even started to calculate the impact on
-
Staff Happiness
-
Job Efficiency & Productivity
-
Technology Improvements and Savings
-
Increase in revenue due to increased productivity
-
Decrease in staff wage costs due to increase in productivity
-
and the list goes on….
