Ever stared at your to-do list, frozen?

You’re not alone. Most solo biz people I meet have had at least one ‘stuck on the spot’ moment this week (me included!).

Here’s my go-to fix: pick ONE task, just one, and set a timer for 10 minutes. No pressure to finish, just start. You’ll be amazed at what suddenly feels easier when you give yourself permission to focus on less, not more.

Want weekly tips like this (plus some real talk on getting unstuck)? Pop your email in here and I’ll send them straight to your inbox. Ready to get it done?

“I thought I had a plan.”
(But she didn’t. Not really.)

We sat down, mapped it out, and now?
She’s working the plan daily — and feeling focused for the first time in ages.

I've just found an old doc gathering dust in my google drive.

It's a checklist I used to audit clients website homepages to see what needed to be done to improve sales or enquiries.

I might add it to my site and make it available for folk for something like £15 so that other solo biz folk can use it.

What should I do?

1- like Nike says - just do it!
2 - hmmmm tell me more
2 - dunno, do you have anything else?

One reason I'm grateful to work for myslef. Alone. Where no one can see me....

How many communications do you send out a year, a month, a week, a day?

When I worked in a charity I had to schedule 300 mailings and comms in a year.

It felt like a lot (it was a lot) but it's a fraction of the comms we send out in our businesses these days - social media, newsletters, blogs, podcasts, carrier pigeons....it probably wasn't.

And instead of having a member of staff to plan all of the comms, you're probably doing it all yourself along with all the other things in your business - making things, serving customers, sales calls, admin, finance, feeding the office cat, walking the office dog....

If you're a solo biz owner it's no wonder you feel ovewhelmed by trying to do all the things and plan all the other things in your business.

I'd love to help you with all the planning and marketing know how I've learnt over the years.
Join my Seasonal Sales Planning Workshop and I'll show you how to plan your marketing using seasonality, without feeling overwhelmed so you can increase sales because your customers feel like you've read their mind.
