You should start by simplifying .... your Systems & Workflows!
You’ve got clients, and you’re making some money. You’re feeling really great about the successes you’ve achieved and are loving having that income that you created yourself. Only …. You feel like you’re constantly in client mode. You don’t want to be too far from your inbox, in case you get a new inquiry (it wouldn’t do to not respond immediately!), and you spend more time dealing with clients, client work, and the backend of bringing on new clients than you do on your own business.There's a better way, friend. By simplifying your systems & workflows, you'll be able to create that space in your business to do those things outside of client mode that you're dreaming of.Ready for the how? Read on for 3 ways to start simplifying your systems & workflows today!1. Ask yourself what tasks you do over and over again. If you repeat anything more than once - a certain email you send, a common question you get asked, a questionnaire you create for new clients ... whatever the case may be, you need to have a template.2. Start recording how you do things. Take notes as you prepare to work with a client. Screen record how you create your done-for-you services. Either way works, but start writing down how you do things.3. Create a Workflow. Take that information you've gathered, and turn it into a workflow! Whether inside of a CRM tool, in a Google Doc, or in Trello .... just start somewhere!And who am I? — let me introduce myself...Hey there, friend! 👋 My name is Amanda Warfield.I'm a simplicity-focused time management & business strategist, and host of Chasing Simple - a podcast to help creative entrepreneurs uncomplicate their life and biz.
