New Year, New You - Time for a Business Clean up and Clean out!
Here's 8 ideas to nudge you into some 'new year cleaning' of your business:
- 1. Canva - if you use www.canva.com<http://www.canva.com/> then you
probably have a gazillion photos uploaded to it - take some time and delete
the uploaded photos you won't use again. Scrolling through 100's of photos
is no fun for anyone! - 2. Still sticking to Canva here - start creating files for your different
creatives - get in there and organise all your posts, cover photos, manuals,
slide shows etc - give yourself a gift of being able to find things quicker! - 3. Emails - today is the day to tackle those. Unsubscribe to the ones
you NEVER read, and delete, delete, delete. Put them in order of "from" and
just start - it will take some time, but you will be thanking yourself
later! PS - if you find people you haven't connected with for ages, but
might be a good lead, send them a "hey, haven't spoken in a while but ."
email - you never know where your next sale is coming from! - 4. Clean your office - your physical office. Get the bin and get
throwing! Get rid of all those loose papers with important things on them!
If you want to keep them, take a photo of them with your phone or scan them
into your notes on your phone - and throw away the hard copy. Clean office,
clean head! - 5. Create a folder system in google drive - start-a-fresh in 2021
- 6. Archive and backup your hard drive onto a separate hard drive - of
course! - 7. Consider updating your equipment - what needs to be updated? Perhaps
a new monitor (how many is too many right?!?) - 8. Update your bookwork - get your finances in order!
No one else is going to do it - so you just need to make some time and get
it done! Mark the days out on your calendar, and have no excuses!
Clean office, clean head!
