59: Batching Working Smarter, Not Harder


Listen Later

In this episode, we dive into a business strategy that has saved our sanity as photographer entrepreneurs: batching! We explore how focusing on similar tasks for extended timeframes can help you feel more accomplished and less scattered, especially during business relocations or restructuring.

Key Takeaways:
  1. Start small - Begin with just one repetitive task you can batch for an hour to knock out a couple weeks' worth of work at once.

  2. Establish boundaries - Setting specific days and times for certain tasks (like client calls, emails, or ordering) creates structure and helps manage client expectations.

  3. Pair with Marketing Mondays - Consider creating a monthly cycle where each Monday focuses on a different marketing task (emails, social media, blog posts) to maintain consistency while avoiding overwhelm. Check out episdoe 51 for more on that!
