The term Budgeting gets tossed around in many ways. Budgets get blamed for gridlock. Budgets get politicized. Budgets get more attention than the umbrellas under which they rightfully belong: Strategic Planning and Visioning. Budgeting by itself is a minor piece of business strategy. By itself, Budgeting does not constitute full-scope planning and business strategy. Budgeting is a peg in the process. Base Budgets on Value, Not on Cost.

Our reader poll today asks: What does your budget look like going into the new year? One way to free up some additional budget is by stopping unproductive activities. We have a lot more to spend than this past year. 15.4% We have about the same amount to spend as this past year. 54.7% We have much less to spend than this past year. Belts are a little tighter. A large portion of you reported having less to spend in the coming year. That requires more focused prioritization.

Operating under tight budgets makes it almost impossible for startup owners to set aside a marketing budget. Within the tight operating budget, they have to pay rent and employees, purchase raw materials and take care of the huge overhead costs. This makes email marketing one of the most low-budget and effective marketing strategies that claim a high ROI. Since running ads are based on the CPC model, you need to set a budget limit and a bid cap.

This oversight is clearly expressed through the effective management of an executive or manager’s assigned budget. In many cases, this budget includes revenue generation as well as expenditures. Other organizations are simply cost centers and the budget is a reflection of expenditures only. Regardless of the circumstance, all managers must actively oversee their budgets in order to remain fiscally responsible to the organization and its shareholders.

Zero-based budgeting (ZBB) is elegantly logical: Expenses must be justified for each new budget period based on demonstrable needs and costs, as opposed to the more common method of using last year’s budget as your starting point, then adjusting up or down. One might conclude from such failures that implementing zero-based budgeting is simply too ambitious. Implementing ZBB on this much larger scale is more demanding, but zero-based budgeting is always a big bet.

But much of the blame can be attributed to hospitals’ misaligned budgeting and incentive systems. We have identified how hospitals’ budgeting systems have erected three distinct barriers to the adoption of technology. Barrier 1: Unaligned budgeting units. Each of these departments has its own cost budget for which it is held accountable. Each of these units acquires its own resources within constraints authorized by its departmental budget.
