#174: Wrap Up Your Year with These 5 Questions
Manage episode 385194035 series 2757814
Listeners, I would love your help! Please contribute to an upcoming episode: Email me a voice memo of you describing a specific marketing tactic you did that landed you a client. Provide your name and helpful details of what you did that might have been unique or persistent that worked in securing new work. Email it to me at melanie@meledits.com to be considered for a future episode that will include tips from other listeners.
On today’s show, I share five questions to help you wrap up your year to create a “fresh start” in January. I explain the difference between these five questions and larger questions to ask yourself later in a solo business retreat to set up your year for success.
The five questions are:
- What do I need to do now to line up work in January?
- What do I need to do to wrap up the year?
- Do I need to raise rates or fire anyone?
- Where do I need to improve my marketing and networking?
- How much money did I make this year?
