How much white space do you have in your diary?

If you’re like most creative businesses, your calendar is jam-packed with client work and calls. This may look impressive on the outside, but it’s likely costing you the freedom to grow your business effectively and leads to burnout.

I’ve worked with many creative studio owners in this position and have helped them to take back a day a week in their calendars without breaking their business.

In this episode, I share the exact strategy you can use so that you can get the time back to work on your business instead of in it, and grow a business that serves you.

Covered in this episode:

  • Why creative business owners should avoid a full calendar.
  • How to get back one day a week without breaking your business.
  • The exact formula to work out how many calls and projects you need to grow your business sustainably.
  • The key to building a business that serves you.

PS: If you want a custom roadmap to grow a creative studio that works for you, rather than the other way around. Click this link - https://resources.mattessam.co.uk/roadmap.
