Feeling like your biz is taking up way too much of your time?

It doesn’t have to.

Besides the fact that we so often get caught up in a lot of busy work that is not even necessary in the first place, there are a lot of time savers you can put into place to make you way more efficient.

Leaving you with time to do whatever the heck your heart desires!

The following are 3 of my best tips to help you save time in your business:

1- Automations

This. Is. Key. This one thing is going to be what saves you the most time in the long run. Everything from automated e-mail opt-ins, e-mail welcome series, on boarding for new clients or team members, to scheduling programs and tools. 

2- Batching

A certain amount of the time you take to do a task is actually getting set up for that task. So batching certain work together like writing content or creating graphics saves precious time.

3- Link Page

I’m not talking a link tree for your IG, but a easy to access place (from both your phone and computer) that has all the links to all of your sites, social media pages, landing pages, blog posts and anything else you link in inside your business. Adding a link to your FB post just got a lot quicker!

4- Planner

If you don’t use a planner for your business and personal life, you are wasting time and energy. That may sound extreme but organizing and planning things out in advance inside planner allows you to work efficiently and be ahead of the ball which means more time and energy saved for other things.

Personally I recommend a planner where you can manage your personal life and business in once place. It prevents a lot of double booking and confusion and you get a much clearer idea of what exactly you have going on. Of course, detailed business plans like content planning and such can be done in a separate place but your scheduling and to-do’s are best managed in the same place your manage the rest of your life.

I know from experience it can be hard to find a planner that has space enough for you to do this. In fact, I never found one so I created my own! Its a complete day planner and goal planner in one that has unique features that you won’t find in any other planner. You can check it out here.

As with a lot of organization and time management tips, these can also apply to your personal life outside of business as well so don’t be afraid to see what could be automated or batched at home either!

Feeling overwhelmed just thinking about applying these? Let me help! If you are struggling with organization, productivity, time management or accountability either in your biz or personal life, this is for you!
