What Autumn Means for the CEO
If you run your own business, there are a few new things you can add to your to-do’s that will help you embrace the season.
If you own your own business, fall is a great time to add a little something new to your daily routines, goals, and strategies. Not only do you have the great back-to-school vibes swirling around that just invite innovation and new beginnings, but we’re also staring the fourth and final quarter of the year in the face! There is lots of opportunity to make the most of the end of the year and invigorate your business.
Here are a couple of ways you can make autumn MEAN something for you and your business this year:
Imagine how you want to start the new year: What would make you SO excited to sit down at your desk on January 2? Would it be a new team member who handles some of your to-do’s? An easy flow to the day with no question of what to do next? Maybe a new client, or some amazing awareness around your brand would get you amped up? Plot out what you desire, before we dig into how to make it work.
Do a business audit: Take a look at your business, your team’s tasks, and your day-to-day duties. Is there anything that isn’t working anymore, whether that’s not leading to results or just not feeling authentic to you and the brand? Are you bringing in as much monthly income as you’d like? What are the issues that you need to find solutions to?
Dedicate time to researching the solutions: So next step, take some time the beginning of the month to research solves to what you need. Perhaps it’s time to integrate a new project management software, like Notion. Maybe you need to take a quick course to learn a new skill, like in our Holiday Headlines freebie for PR around the holiday season.
Make it vision-board worthy: One of the reasons Pinterest is my favorite social media platform is because it encourages beautiful living on your terms. Create a new Pinterest board with all the goals and tasks for this season, and even some vibey things to keep you encouraged. Maybe there is a lovely new desk set up you can try, or jazzy playlist to encourage workflow. Or do you start your morning with a podcast while you get ready for the day? You are in control of how your days look, how productive it can be, and how to make yourself happy in this moment.
I hope this little list helps you get in the mood for success this season! What are you going to take onboard? Tell us at team@megandrosigliopr.com.
