Hitting the Wall...

What do you do when you hit the wall?  Every company, no matter the size, at some point is going to face an overwhelming challenge or “Hit the Wall”.  How that challenge is met is critical to the survival of the company.  Should the business leader become discouraged or defeated, then the business venture will most assuredly fail.  The ability to step back, access the problem(s) and stay focused on finding workable solutions is key to survival.

Recently, along with our affiliate partner NEX21 Partners, we gave ourselves a challenge to create and launch a new program called BestDealerJobs.com, and to do so in under 11 weeks.  We have previously taken on some pretty lofty goals in the past, but this was a new arena to most of us!

We hit many, many walls during the process: Building a webpage – not a problem, we do that. Match candidates with employers, again, not a problem. Our top notch HR team has done that for multiple companies for over 10 years. Build a webpage to both collect candidates and match them to the best suited employers. Now that was new to all of us. Oh, and we needed to complete this and market it across the country - all in 11 weeks!

Repeatedly, we hit the wall, but we worked together as a team to knock them down or push each other up and over them. In the end, we accomplished our goal!! BestDealerJobs.com  has been launched.  We are still tweaking and perfecting it, but the answer to the question for all of us at NEX21 Media & Partners as to ‘What we do when we “Hit the Wall”?’  We pull together and overcome!
