  • 2 Assets Every Entrepreneur Needs Before Starting 2025
    2024/12/03

    Hey entrepreneur! Ready to set your business up for success in 2025? In this episode, I’m sharing the two key assets that every entrepreneur needs to have in place before January rolls around. These simple yet powerful tools—your time plan and revenue plan—are what kept me energized and growing throughout 2024 without burnout.

    After hearing from so many small business owners this year who felt overwhelmed, burned out, or even ready to take a break, I knew I had to share the strategies that made all the difference for me. Learn how to use these assets to take control of your schedule, protect your time off, and achieve sustainable growth in the year ahead.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Why These 2 Assets Are Essential
      Burnout, overwhelm, and reactive decision-making are common struggles for entrepreneurs. Learn how these two assets can help you avoid those pitfalls.
    • The One-Page Time Plan
      I’ll walk you through how to map out your business year on a single sheet of paper—events, launches, promotions, and (most importantly) your time off.
    • Revenue Planning That Aligns with Your Life
      Discover how to create a revenue plan that works in tandem with your time plan, so you can hit your income goals without overworking.
    • How These Assets Work Together
      I’ll share how using these tools side by side can keep your business running smoothly, help you stay focused, and create a sustainable pace you’ll love.

    Your time and revenue are the backbone of your business. Having a plan for both ensures you can grow without burnout, take intentional time off, and achieve the work-life harmony you’ve been craving.
