Finding Productivity Within Your Business

02/6/2017

As a business owner, I’m always trying to find ways to be more productive within my business.  I understand that productivity is a core strategy for my success and it’s something I work on daily. I’ve compiled a few of my favourite tips to help you also achieve maximum productivity within your business!

Outsource Things You’re Not Good At

It’s pretty simple when you think about it. If you’re not good at something and have no time or interest in growing your skills, save your energy and outsource that task. There are many different, cost-effective solutions to your outsourcing needs. You can find affordable virtual assistance in different networking groups, or maybe you even know someone! Have any friends that have teenagers that may want to make a few dollars? It’s a great opportunity to give them some work experience, and you get a new fresh perspective on different aspects of your business. As with any solution, you’ll need to set the framework, build trust, create the process together but just think of the time and stress you’ll be saving by not having to do this task yourself!

Find Tools to Help Automate Aspects of Your Business

One of the things I hear from my client’s all the time is that they’ve never thought about the time it takes to actually complete tasks by hand. Important things like scheduling, booking client meetings, accounting, content scheduling, responding to emails, creating mailing lists all take time. We now have amazing tools right at our fingertips that once set up, will take away the time consuming manual processes. Even on the tightest budget, you can benefit from the simplicity of automated processes.

Blocking Out your Time 

I’ve talked about this before here, but blocking out chunks of time out of your schedule will absolutely save you time! If you know you only have an hour to write, edit and post a blog you’re going to get your butt in gear and get it done! When we have extra time on our hands ( and even sometimes when we don’t…), we tend to procrastinate until we absolutely have to no time left to spare. This also gives you a visual of your schedule and you can easily decide if you have the time to take on new things as they arise.

Walk Away & Come Back

Sometimes when you’re working on something, you become oblivious to the task at hand. You suddenly remember all the things you still have to do, and that email you forgot to send last week. To say you’re not productively completing this task is an understatement. Before you get to this point, I strongly suggest taking a break. Even just a 10-minute walk, or work on something else for a bit and come back to the task with fresh eyes.

Lose the Nay Sayers;

Honestly, if you implement only one of these tips into your business, please let it be this one. I cannot stress enough the importance of having supportive people in your life! Negative people bring you down and ultimately suck the life from your productivity. If your current circle isn’t the supportive kind, find support in networking groups, social media groups and other business owners. Having people in your corner helps to increase your creativity, inspiration and motivation.

Day 3 of my favourites!✨ Since today is my actu Day 3 of my favourites!✨

Since today is my actual birthday 🎂, I decided to make it about my business and network I’ve built! 

Being in business for myself is hands down one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Getting to do it with my husband, and some of my favourite people makes it even better!  Together we focus on providing holistic financial education to Canadians that are typically left behind by the traditional industry.  We also get to travel together to the most amazing places! 
**FYI not all my favourite people are included in the photos. 😂**

The Bliss Network Exchange is a women’s networking group in the YGK focused on bringing Professionals together. For us BLISS stands for Belief, Leadership, Integrity, Strategy & Success. We don’t believe in awkward elevator pitches, forced referrals or mandatory attendance. We believe in just getting together to share the conversation. Celebrate each other’s wins, and support in times of challenge. 

For me having a community of incredible people is essential. Feeling super grateful and blessed to be surrounded by such awesome people! 🖤

One of my favourite things to do is journal. It’s part of my daily routines!  A great place in the YGK to get a nice new journal is @happythoughtsygk 

@foursigmatic - I absolutely love black coffee!  I was told by my health coach to replace it with mushroom coffee. I was skeptical at first, but I honestly love it!! 

Speaking of health coach.. A friend of mine recommended I reach out to @b_elite_diala to work on some of my health goals. After spending 2022 + 2023 really sick, in a flare with my Hashimoto’s, I was desperately looking for help.  I completed their 5 step assessment which was the ONLY assessment I’ve ever seen to include thyroid & gut function. They created a customized plan for me, and I have weekly support from Diala.  Over the last 14 weeks, I’ve lost a pretty significant amount of weight, lost multiple inches all over my body, am getting the best sleep ever and have put my Hashimoto’s symptoms into remission!  I’m beyond grateful for BELITE & Diala! If you have any questions about your health, reach out to Diala!! 

Those that know me, know that I’m a huge advocate for therapy.  Back in 2021 I decided to gift myself the gift of Therapy for my birthday and I started seeing Amanda from @hammondpsychotherapy . It has absolutely been a game changer for me!  They have since expanded into the  @thearmchairco and have multiple therapists on site!  Check them out!!
