Supporting Local
Supporting local is a big movement right now and I would like to incorporate it to my business plan. I would also like to create a family environment for my employees and have incentives to do their best. I would like for them to feel comfortable to discuss anything with me or any higher-ups at any point. I want to have an environment that they can feel appreciated and have the opportunity to advance or make lateral career movements.
I would like to hire as many people from the surrounding areas as much as possible. In this area there is not a lot of opportunity for a long term job that you can gain skills from. I would like to offer a job like that to people from my hometown. This will also be encouraged by doing package deals when clients are looking into the venue. A package would be services that are predetermined by the company to ensure excellent service/product while maintaining the local influence. I have yet to decide if only package deals will be available or if it will be completely customizable. Possibly customizable for an extra fee...
One of the ideas to show employees that I care about them is a company breakfast one morning a week every week. This would likely be done only once there is a restaurant on the property. I would like for everyone to get together and enjoy a good meal. Additionally, I want to structure my business on the principals in the book; Less Chaos, More Cash. I want for my employees to have responsibility and autonomy. I want to offer encouragement for education as well. Maybe, offer my own classes for any topic that may be of use that my employees could attend.
Lastly, I want to make sure to pay my employees a higher than average wage. I want for them to have excellent care in health care, other benefits, and be treated well. I'm not yet sure how to accomplish this, but that is a goal of mine and I would mandate at least 1 day off per week. No one will work for seven straight days for any reason.
