Are You Lacking The Structure You’re Used To

Do You Have Structure In Your Business?

First of all, if you’d rather listen to this than reading it please check out the podcast below.

When you leave the employee world behind and start your own business, we are lacking the structure we are so used to having.

As an employee, you are given structure by your employer.

Things like…

What time to come to work
What time to leave
When to take lunch
What you are working on
When you get a review and a raise
And so much more….

It is up to us as the business owner to add structure to our own business.

Now we don’t necessarily need to set specific work hours….but it would be nice for clients to understand what hours and days you work.

In this week’s VLOG, I talk about the need for structure in our business and share tips and tricks on how to create it for ourselves.

Thanks for watching!

Feel free to post below and let me know what structure you have in place.

I’d love to hear from you!
