Today With Jeannie Andresen:

Welcome to the Window Treatments for Profit podcast. Today on the show we have Jeannie Andresen, a business coach helping design professionals make their businesses more sustainable.

Jeannie recently joined us on A Well Designed Business to discuss knowing your worth, charging accordingly, and turning away business that doesn’t fit. But you can’t get there without a plan, and you can’t make a plan without a planning day. In today’s episode, Jeannie shares her best practices for a great planning day. With her acronym DATED, she walks through every step from setting a date to debriefing afterwards. This process can make a big difference in your business, so listen in to find out more.

LuAnn Nigara and Jeannie Andresen's Ah-Ha Moments

“As business owners, we are all operating at such a high level all of the time. And what moves the needle in our businesses is not that activity, it's the activity that you take when you step away from your business—to actually look at it—to notice trends, to make decisions to change the course of how certain things are going.” – Jeannie Andresen

 “The goal for me, and I hope for most people in entrepreneurship, is to remove yourself as much as possible, in a way so that you can grow the others underneath you.” – Jeannie Andresen

“So often we have a really productive day where we make decisions, and we say that we're going to do things, but if we're not giving ourselves space and time to actually look at that stuff—add things to our calendar, clean up what we made decisions on, confirm that we made decisions—a lot of stuff falls flat…give yourself the space and time to actually execute on this.” – Jeannie Andresen
