Looking to quit your job? Ten tips for surviving as an entrepreneur via Womens Agenda. I help clients to get clear and focus particularly on 2, 3, 4, 6 and 10! 1. Find time away from work: whether its at the gym, playing with your dog or simply taking an actual lunch break, youll be more productive and your body will thank you and reward you for it. 2. Dont assume anything: regardless of your past experiences with a client, ask for contracts and check the fine print. 3. Document all client liaisons: this is great for chasing invoices. 4. Dont overburden yourself in running your business: work to your strengths and find professional help for areas you cannot manage. 5. Look at your social circle for skills: can you do a contra deal with your friends for mutual benefit? 6. Talk it out: find a mentor or person in a similar industry to bounce ideas off and discuss business issues. 7. Invest in your staff: they will grow your brand. 8. Shop around for services: research and price-check on what you need to market and maintain your business. 9. Remove emotion in hostile situations: youll make better decisions when you focus on the facts. 10. Automate wherever possible: save time and rarely miss a beat by keeping a variety of email templates on file to respond to enquiries, quotes, invoices and feedback. Look for ways to automate your business.
