Well 2009 has been a very busy year here at Burford Secretarial and hopefully 2010 will be just as busy if not busier. Over the Christmas period I am going to use this time to plan ahead for the coming year. Of course I will also spend time with my young family but while they are busy playing with whatever Santa has decided to bring them, I can reassess how I would like my business to proceed throughout 2010.
First off I will start by making sure that all my filing is up to date, this includes electronic filing of documents as well as making sure that everything is backed up or deleted if necessary. Once that task has been undertaken it is off to file my online tax return before the 31st January 2010 deadline.
I have decided that next year I am going to write my blog posts and newsletter articles three months in advance, this will save me having to try and fit in the time to write them whilst I am busy with my clients. The great thing about most systems such as WordPress and MailChimp is that it is so easy to schedule posts and newsletters to be sent at any time.
My Contact Management database is also in need of a spring clean. I have a heap of business cards that I have never had time to put onto the system so that is another job to be undertaken as well as assessing my next 12 month marketing plan.
Burford Secretarial has recently started to offer a Call Answering service so this is something that I really want to market as it is a great benefit to my clients, the feedback so far is excellent.
There are also lots of other plans in the pipeline that just need a bit more tweaking before they can be announced.
Is your business quiet over the Christmas period and if so are you going to take the time to plan the year ahead for your business?
