Are you running your business by the seat of your pants, or are you planning out every last detail? One of my favorite topics to dive into is planning for the new year. In today's episode, we'll go over the 9 things that you need to do when planning for the new year. These tasks will help you to bring intention to your business while continuing to grow your business with clear methods to make sure that you're staying on track.

The 9 Things You Need to do to Plan Your Year are:

1. Set Clear Goals - ‌This means we should set specific & challenging goals, write down our goals, visit our goals daily, share our goals in a community, and imagine & visualize our goals.
2. Plan From a Higher Place - Stop thinking small and dream BIG! Plan your life from the perspective of the you that you will be when you've "made it".
3. Know your Financial Goals - Determine how much you need to make from each client in order to meet your financial goals. Understanding business finances so that you can accurately plan for reaching those big financial goals.
4. Perform a Client Audit - Identify where your past year falls in relation to your goals. Take a look at your average client investment, what they purchased, and how big of art did they purchase, determine ways that you can increase that client investment by making tweaks in your system.
5. Perform a Financial Audit - Know where your money is going! 
6. Create a Budget for the New Year - Plan for large purchases and all of the potential spending that you will do in the next year.
7. Mark Off your Calendar - Planning our your entire calendar allows you to set boundaries on your time and gives you a sense of stability throughout the year. Plan for your time off, what days do you want to hold client meetings, which days will you shoot portraits?
8. Time Block your Weeks - Determine what hours you want to work. Setting boundaries on your day-to-day schedule is just as important as your yearly schedule. It will allow you to keep a consistent schedule that you and your family can count on.
9. Create a Marketing Strategy with Intention - Create a marketing plan that gives you a clear and concise plan so that you know what to focus on. Market to your ideal client and know how you're going to get them through your door.
