5 Simple Ways To Improve Your Productivity

✅ Create a timeline for each task and stick to it. Start by assessing your workload and identifying any upcoming deadlines. Prioritize your tasks and plan your schedule accordingly. Try using the Eisenhower Matrix, a task management tool that helps you organize and prioritize tasks by urgency and importance.

✅ Breakdown goals into achievable tasks. Be honest with yourself and set realistic goals with realistic expectations. When you have a clear vision of what your purpose is and an action plan you can follow to get you to your goal, YOU WILL SUCCEED!

✅ Eliminate distractions and yes, that means putting the phone away too. Distractions hurt our efficiency and productivity. As a business owner distractions can cost you precious time and money. Keep distractions at a minimum and focus your attention on income producing activities.

✅Time Management. There are 24 hours in a day, eight of those are spent sleeping. What are you doing with the remaining 16 hours? Take a look at your daily and weekly schedule. How are you allocating your time? Invest your time in areas of your life that bring you joy and give value. Maximize the 16 hours you have by being efficient and effective. When you think you don't have time, think again. Make time for the things that are important to YOU!

✅ Be mindful and intentional by being conscious and deliberate with what your priorities are.
👉 Urgency vs Importance
👉 Effort vs Impact
👉 Stress vs Ease

✨WHAT IS THE GOAL?✨
Work efficiently to maximize output.

As a new soon to be small businesses owner, you must decide between single-entry and double-entry bookkeeping.

How do you decide which one is right for you? 🤔

👉 Single-entry bookkeeping is similar to keeping your own personal checkbook. You keep a record of transactions like cash, tax-deductible expenses, and taxable income when you use single-entry bookkeeping.

Single-entry bookkeeping is characterized by the fact that only one entry is made for each transaction, just like in your check register.

This type of bookkeeping is probably only going to work for you if your business is very small and simple, with a low volume of activity. It is not for large, complex companies. It does not track accounts like inventory, accounts payable, and accounts receivable. You can use single-entry bookkeeping to calculate net income, but you can’t use it to develop a balance sheet and track the asset and liability accounts. Transactions are a single entry, rather than a debit and credit made to a set of books like in double-entry bookkeeping.

👉 Most small businesses, use double-entry bookkeeping for their accounting needs. Two characteristics of double-entry bookkeeping are that each account has two columns and that each transaction is located in two accounts. Two entries are made for each transaction – a debit in one account and a credit in another.

If you want to keep track of asset and liability accounts, you want to use double-entry bookkeeping instead of single-entry. Other advantages that double-entry bookkeeping has over single-entry bookkeeping are that the owner can accurately calculate profit and loss in complex organizations, financial statements can be prepared directly from the books, and errors or fraud are easy to detect.

Avoid co-mingling funds by opening a business checking account. If you haven't done it yet, start now. While it isn't legally required for some business to open a checking account, unless your an LLC or Corporation, there are benefits to keeping these accounts separate from your personal finances.

Whether or not you decide to open up a business checking account or not, consider opening a personal checking account exclusively only for your business until you make that decision. It's free or comes with a low fee that can be easily waived depending on the financial institution. Be sure to double check with your bank as they might have certain terms and conditions that specify that personal checking accounts shouldn't be used for business transactions.
