1. Create “Just Do It” days. You know there are those tasks you hate to do. Perhaps billing? Catching up on your Quickbooks? Updating your website? Whatever those tasks are that you hate doing, make time. Dedicated a morning, afternoon, or entire day once a week or once a month to doing nothing but that task you must accomplish. That’s the life of an entrepreneur. You’ve gotta do whatcha gotta do.

2. Outsource. Are you making so much money that you can afford to outsource a task rather than set aside “Just Do It” time? By all means outsource! Call an accountant or web designer to do the work for you. Just one little thing: please outsource to another small business owner like yourself. It’s always nice to pay it forward and help other small women-owned businesses succeed.

3. Activate the signature settings on your email account. Sick of always signing your name and phone number and business name and address on every email? Activating the automatic signature settings will save you lots of time. Many providers even allow you to upload your company letterhead for a professional and polished look.
