Are you ever mad at your past self for not doing a better job organizing your business from the beginning?
It would have been so much easier if someone had given us the resources and knowledge we needed. But... we didn't know what we didn't know.
This week, I experienced this myself when making a list of my podcast guest appearances. They were not all in one place, so I "wasted" time trying to put this list together, annoyed that I hadn't done this from the beginning.
My experience inspired this episode. I thought of the things that I wish I had organized from the very beginning, and I thought of my clients and what they wish they had organized.
Let me tell you, getting organized takes a lot more work when you've accumulated all the stuff. So, if you are new to business, take notes. And if you've been in business for a while and are wishing you had started sooner, NOW is the time. Your future self will thank you immensely.
What do you wish you had organized from the start? Please message me on Instagram and let me know what yours are that I missed.
I share 10 critical elements I wish I had organized from the beginning of my coaching business. These elements include maintaining digital files, tracking podcast guest appearances, organizing funnel links, recording assets and freebies, and more.
I've packaged my solution to all of these in Organized Coach Academy where I help all coaches get their businesses and their assets organized. I break it down into simple modules and include monthly calls so you don't stay stuck.
