Summary of your business year 2019 - a free tool
Blog
There are just a couple more weeks left of 2019 and when January arrives it's not just a new year but also a new decade!
It's time to have a look back at the year and learn from it so you can move into 2020 stronger and clearer on what to do next.
So I thought I would share with you a one-page exercise that I do at the end of each year to summarise how it has gone.
This summary of your year will help you celebrate your successes, build and grow.
What to do
Get a sheet of paper and divide it into six parts (see the example below).
Think about each heading and make some notes:
Activities
Make a list of the things that you have done in the past year.
Don't get caught up in minor details, focus on the main things you have done in your business.
Gains
List the things you have gained over the year
Losses
Make a list of the things that haven't worked as well
Lessons
This is the key section: look at the activities, gains and losses sections and write down what you have learnt. Hint: whether it's something that went well or something not to do again it's all good news!
Income
The money that you have taken
Profit
The amount of money you have made after costs
Spend some time looking over your summary of 2019 as it will help you direct your focus in 2020. Now is your chance to let go of mistakes you've made and use what you've learnt to redirect your attention and energy in the direction you want to go.
Is it time to grow your jewellery business? But do you feel unsure of what you need to do to get there?
I'm very excited to announce that the Jewellery Business Bootcamp will be running again in 2020.
I haven't run this intensive 8-week course live for two years now and my team and I have been working hard to update the resources to make it the best course designed just for jewellers who want to make a living from their jewellery.
Wherever you are in the world and whether you are wanting to start a business or grow the business you have in 2020 this is the shortcut you need.
