Only so much time- don't waste it

I see so many small business owners waste time so at the end of the day what needed accomplished never was. It is even more important for the small business to set limits, there is a lot to get done and not having the time to do it, makes for a long day or failed business. Start by doing the following things to improve and use what time you have to succeed.

• Minimize phone calls. Be polite but insistent that you must go
• Read your emails only once, take action and then store or erase
• Meetings should follow an agenda. Stick to it
• When asked to do something, determine if the time used produces results. If not then, say no
• Make a to-do list everyday and check off items that are accomplished
• Don't be in a cluttered work space, it hinders production

This is a great start to get time in control.

What is a Brand

I think this is the most important thing for any business. It is something that stands out and says who you are to your customer. Does your brand really represent you?
