If your numbers don’t add up, how can your plans?  Without clear financials, every decision feels like a gamble. Bookkeeping services bring order to chaos, giving you confidence in every choice.  💡 Start Well Tip: Start the year with a realistic view. Take one hour this week to categorize your business expenses to better understand where your money is going. Awareness is key. If you want help, please let us know!  #productivity #entrepreneurship #bookkeeping 

To save time in 2025, start your day with a structured morning routine. Whether exercising, meditating, or reviewing your goals, a solid routine sets a positive tone for the day ahead. If you are utilizing The Pomodoro Technique, this is where you can set out your 16 Pomodoros for the day. What does your morning routine look like? #productivity #pomodoro #routine

Are you waiting to be perfectly organized before asking for help? Stop. You’re torturing yourself. Too many entrepreneurs hold back from hiring help because they think they need to have everything perfectly organized first. Lanna Thompson’s personal advice from learning the hard way? Don’t. Whether your receipts are in a shoebox or your tasks are a mess, it’s exactly the right time to bring in help. An EA or bookkeeper's job isn’t to judge (and we promise, they never do!) - it’s to help you clean it up and move forward faster. What’s one thing you could delegate today if you shifted your mindset? #productivity #entrepreneurial #success #mindset

 If you are looking to save an hour a day, try time-blocking. We are a fan of The Pomodoro Technique (or Pomodoro Method) a time-blocking strategy invented in Italy by Francesco Cirillo. It consists of 16 time blocks or "Pomodoros" of 25 minutes per day. Start your day by scheduling the tasks you will complete during each Pomodoro to ensure your day flows smoothly. Learn more about the Pomodoro Technique in our video. https://lnkd.in/gPJPFQX8 Read our accompanying blog post here: https://lnkd.in/gUu_W4jg #pomodoro #timesavingtips #timeblocking

I have nothing but the best things to say about her and value her tremendously. ✨ If you're ready to experience results like this, we'd love to hear from you! #entrepreneurship #freelance #remotework #leadership 

Is yours the only phone that rings? Whether it’s clients, vendors, or team members, this constant communication isn’t sustainable or scalable. If you’re tired of fielding phone calls and emails from morning to evening, consider hiring an "in-between." An Executive Assistant can manage your emails and calendar, while an Online Business Manager can handle inquiries from your team. Reclaim your time and focus on what you enjoy, rather than being interrupted by constant notifications and phone calls. https://lnkd.in/gKv5XMdG #productivity #hiring #timeback

Doing this yourself is holding your business back.   Here’s a common trap most business owners fall into...  ... holding on to email and calendar management. It feels like something you should do yourself - after all, staying on top of communication is crucial, right? But here’s the reality…  You’re spending hours each day on tasks someone else could handle, robbing yourself of precious time to focus on what really matters - growing your business. We’ve been there and done this.  By delegating email and calendar management and implementing a streamlined system, you could free up 3 to 4 hours every single day. Imagine only seeing the important emails and reviewing your calendar once at the start of your day.  Simple. Efficient. Game-changing.  Ready to reclaim those lost hours? It starts by letting go. We’re here to help you do it.  #productivity #entrepreneurship #success
