How can I find the time to promote my Longaberger business?
One of the most common complaints from consultants is that I just don't have the time to work my business. So, what can you do to find the time? This will be a quick exercise in time management. You will need a timer (10 minutes, total, I promise), blank sheet of paper and a writing utensil (aka pen or pencil). We all have 24 hours in a day - 8 for sleeping, 8 for working and 8 for fun. Most of you have a full time job (8 hours), sleep and rest (8 hours) and another 8 hours. What do you do with the other 8 hours? Don't do this if you really don't want to know.
- Set a timer for 5 minutes
- Quickly, write down everything you do in your normal day, include personal hygiene, computer, tv & telephone time - yes, include it all
- Stop when the timer dings
- Go through the list & categorize each item with P E R K:
Eliminate - just say no
Reduce - determine to spend less time here
Keep - this is a neccessity
(Don't think about this too much, just go with your initial, gut feeling - just do it.)
Highlight the Ks!
Place the Rs on a watch list!
Now,
Place the Ps in an 'after I have completed __'.
Personally, I reward my self with the fun things that I want to do after completing the not-so-fun things that I must do.
I really hope that this helps you with your time management and allows you more time to do what you love to do with Longaberger and make money doing it!
Turn your passion into income!
