Started your Christmas Shopping yet?

We’ve refreshed our Client Christmas Gift Guide and given you 20+ gift ideas to send to your clients (or team!). Head to the link in our bio to read the full blog (I’ll also create a story highlight with tags to everyone).

I did a poll on my stories recently…

🎁 A whopping 80% of you said you planned to send some festive happy mail this year.

🎁 When it came to budget, 56% had a budget of £15-£30 per gift and 22% either had a budget of under £15 or £30+.

This year, I also want to encourage you to donate some of your client gift budget to a charity instead, such as @chooselove @britishredcross @unicef @savechildrenuk or @crisis_uk. Your donation will make such a difference to those who are suffering and need our help. 🕊️❤️

The summer holidays have arrived! One week in, and

The summer holidays have arrived! One week in, and so far, surviving the juggle! 💪🏻
If things are quieter over the summer, and you've got time to work on your business - now is a great time to put on your CEO hat to tackle some of your Biz Ops to help you hit the ground running come September.

Here are a few ideas for big and small projects you can tackle over the next six or so weeks:

📝 Stress Tests Your SOPs - Your business processes are a living part of your business; they must be reviewed regularly. Check written steps and video walkthroughs are still relevant/accurate.

💰 Fix Up Your Finances - Complete a financial forecast for the rest of the year, check in on your financial goals, and audit your outgoings. Are you using the tools you are paying for? Are you still making a profit on your services, or is it time for a price rise?

📅 Plan, Plan, Plan - Check your business strategy and update your 2023 plan for the rest of the year. Use a project management tool like Asana to map your next launch or summer priorities. Complete a SWOT analysis of your business to grab hold of the opportunities and tackle the areas for improvement. One final 'P'.... prioritise wisely!

👯 Tighten Up Your Team - Review team roles and responsibilities. Look at where they spend their time and whether it is spent wisely. How can you strengthen relationships and team communication? Are your team clear on their roles/goals for the rest of the year?

Most of all - make the summer count by taking a well-deserved break! Whatever you're up to, I hope you enjoy some time to rest, relax and make memories with the people you love.

BIRCH (Selsdon) - Sneak Peek

I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek of the new membership space by @birchcommunity that’s opening on my doorstep in a few weeks time. It looked great even with lots still to do. They’ll have an art deco inspired lido, co-working space, gym, pottery studio, hotel rooms and gorgeous dining and outdoor spaces along with a full programme of events.

I can tell already it’s going to be a great community that I’m sure will attract a range of creative minds into the area. I was really excited to hear about all the fun & creative events and opportunities to get back to nature for families & children. It’s going to be inspirational, creative space for us grown ups to dine, work & relax in too.

Membership is super tempting as it would be a great space for me to offer VIP days in.

IT’S ME HI…. It feels like I’ve been in hid

IT’S ME HI….

It feels like I’ve been in hiding for a while so I’m back with a reel (who even am I!?).

For those of you who are new here, and more likely those who have forgotten what I looked like and what I do:

👩🏻 I’m Claire, Ops Consultant for Online Service Providers, Coaches & Consultants.

👥 I’m also the Founder of The Assistant Quarters aka @taqagency an Agency of fabulous VAs and OBMs.

👩🏻‍💻 I geek out over Strategic Planning, Business Operations, SOPs, Team Growth and KPI Dashboards.

👩🏻‍🎨 I’m also creative at heart so I love designing and bringing artistic flair to my work.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 I’m a mum of two fab kids. My daughter is the reason I left corporate and set up my own business, and they are both the reason I work part-time as frankly I’m not sure I could make the biz/life juggle work otherwise.

🫖 I cannot get through the day without 7-8 cups of tea

✨ If I could wish for one thing, it would be more sleep (thanks to my 3yo!). And maybe a lottery win so we can finish renovating our house!

So that’s me! I’d love you to say hi in the comments and tell me something I may not know about you?

If you're already looking ahead to next year, what would you love to shift off your to-do list and delegate to a new team member in 2023?

I'll go first... as a mum of two young (often messy!) children, I would 100% say my cleaning/ laundry 🤣

With my CEO hat on, I struggle with showing up online consistently - so a Social Media Manager who can take the reins would be super duper!

Feel free to ask the universe for your new team member in the comments, and if you spot someone who needs your help, don't be shy! 👋🏻
