💰 We all want to keep our margins strong, right?
And yes, I’m all for doing those pesky office jobs ourselves, saving a few quid and getting on with it.
Until it gets complicated… 😂
I recently decided I needed a sparkly new website.
“I can do that myself. Piece of cake!” 🍰
Fast forward 5 hours… I gave up.
Then came the procrastination.
Should I carry on? Start again? Change the design? Do I even know what I’m doing?! 🤦♀️
I chatted to a few colleagues, sat on it for weeks and still had absolutely nothing to show for my efforts.
So that “saving” suddenly looked a little different…
5 hours of my time could easily equate to £150 of billable work — and I still didn’t have a website!
And that’s before we factor in all the time I spent thinking about it. 😩
Eventually, after chatting with the lovely Flick, I decided to speak to a professional.
Enter Gill and Mark at Crystal Pyramid Ltd. ✨
After a fun Zoom chat, they completely understood what I needed, understood me, and built me a website I absolutely love.
Best decision I made.
And it got me thinking…
👉 Sometimes trying to save money actually costs you more.
You’re the expert in your industry. You know your trade inside out. So when something falls outside your expertise, why spend hours struggling with it when someone else can do it quicker, better and more efficiently?
The moral of the story?
If a job needs a professional, get a professional.
It could save you money, free up your time AND ultimately help you make more money.
And if you need an accountant, bookkeeper or VA, give me a shout. 👋
I work closely with some fantastic professionals so we can offer everything from managing your finances to creating a complete virtual office solution.
Because sometimes, the smartest way to save money is knowing when not to do it yourself! 😉
so here it is the big secret.. its live
