LBMC, the largest professional business service company in Tennessee, just launched a national Business Outlook Survey, a resource tool to provide answers to the questions keeping you up at night.

How can you plan for future capital expenditures, outsourcing decisions, risk and security, staffing or technology investments without examining the prior year's performance? More importantly, how can you project future growth and direction without identifying the challenges your clients and prospects are facing? Assessing current and future market conditions while benchmarking your outlook with others in similar regions or industries can help evaluate past performance and lead to better data points for decision making in the future.

"The survey is not only a useful way to garner key information about clients and prospects but also to review your own performance from the previous year. It will help set key benchmarks on challenges so that you can be selective as to where you prioritize resources and understand where your industry or competitors are headed. " Suzanne Reed, Director of Marketing for LBMC.

In the survey, participating business unit leaders report on how business conditions have changed for several indicators such as revenue, employment, prices, and company outlook. Answers cover changes over the past 12 months and expectations for activity over the next 12 months. The survey consists of 35 questions and takes no more than 15 minutes to complete.
