In this episode I'm telling you all about where I spent my money in 2023... including which category I spent more in than my entire eight-year history! I'm talking about where I overspent, where I underspent and what I'm paying for to make my business run smoothly.

Listen in as I take you through how my spending landed in these categories:

• courses
• technology
• paid apps & software
• balloon-specific subscriptions
• paid services
• automation tools
• insurance
• upgrades
• rental products

I'll also share how this reflection has motivated me to create a budget for the year ahead - something I've never taken the time to do before! I hope by listening in, you'll be able to identify areas that could use improvement or upgrades in your business.

In the UGlu Hotline, I share my thoughts on when and how to implement bulk pricing.
