019- Setting Goals for 2020

Strategies and ways to implement

....if you have a plan to grow, what does that look like? Hiring someone? Or just gaining more clientele?

Do you have a plan?

Some tips for achieving the goal you have (because lets be honest, most of us quit our goals by february):

Your goal (or goals) should be specific.

It should be something you can measure, like a certain income you want to make, or number of new clients you want to take on.

Your goal should be attainable and realistic. If you just started dog sitting 2 months ago, it may not be wise to have a goal of hitting 6-figures next year.

Understand why you have that goal.

Set a time limit for the goal (so here we are specifically discussing goals for 2020 but maybe you have a 5 year or 10 year plan)

Small steps

Track your performance.

Have accountability

Celebrate the small victories.

That will help you build momentum.

It may help to talk to someone about it if you are an out loud thinker? May help to write it down or create a vision board if you are a visual person.

Build your team!

Tax person?

Software for management? Time to Pet

IC or employee?

Team leader or manager?

Emotional support?

If you fail, fail forward. Don't lose sight of your end goal.
