Am I losing out? What can I do to grow my business?

¿Estoy en desventaja? ¿Cómo puedo hacer crecer mi negocio?

You are closer to your business than anyone. But you may be too close to see the big picture. And sometimes you might have the feeling that you are neglecting aspects which could be important not only for the future of your business but also for your family and wealth. That's when having a fresh perspective can help find orientation and put a plan in place for the future.

Questions to ask yourself

When you’re planning your next move, it’s a good idea to start early. But there’s a lot to consider. Start by asking yourself these three questions:

Italian Companies

83%

of companies in Mexico are family-owned and represent 53% of the Gross Domestic Product*

Am I ready to expand?

Same market, same returns? If growth has slowed, you might want to think about branching out. Sometimes the real reason your business isn’t growing as fast as you’d like is that you’ve tapped out your existing market. Is it time to innovate? Or diversify into new areas?

Should I raise more capital?

Sometimes businesses need extra support to reach the next level. Have you considered a joint venture, launching an IPO, divestment, or a share issue? What’s the best source of capital to fund your company’s growth?

Is it too early to involve my family?

The short answer is no. Showing your children how you built your successful business will ingrain respect for and understanding of money early on. And 17 of the top 100 fastest-growing businesses in the UK are owned or run by the founders’ children**.

Second generation

Only

1/3

of Mexican family-owned businesses survive the first generation and only 13% survive until the third generation***
