How I Prepare my Business for a 4 Week Holiday

Listen Later

Are you a freelance business owner or contractor who finds it really hard to take holidays? Or have you not quite taken the plunge into it, and one of the reasons is you're worried about being able to take a break? Well, then this is the perfect episode for you. The week this episode releases, I'm off on a long awaited holiday to the UK for 4 weeks. Join me as I go through my process for preparing for this as well as things I learnt from the last time I did this. 

My 5 tips for preparing for a holiday are:

  1. Get as much done in advance as possible
  2. Bring in support
  3. Create white space for while you're away
  4. Clear communication with clients
  5. Don't feel guilty for taking a break

    6. Everyone deserves a break and I hope this episode can help you be on your way to achieving that!
