Are You Making $500 an Hour?

Would you like to make $500 an hour? Everyone of us have the potential to make $500 an hour, however, most of us spend too much time focusing on activities that are only worth $10 an hour. Think about the tasks you do each week; now how much do you think each activity is worth to your business?

I have created an activity list below that is fairly common to this industry. Evaluate each of the activities below and next month we will show you which are worth $10, $100 or $500 an hour.

Discussing a job with a client
Creating a proposal
Picking out a piece of furniture
Selecting fabric for a window treatment
Organizing your office filing system
Organizing your workroom
Public speaking to community groups
Attending conventions, trade shows or classes for this industry
Writing an article/press release for your local newspaper
Fabricating a custom window treatment
Creating or updating your website
Reading trade magazines, marketing books or other books to help you grow your business
Creating a quality brochure for your company
Reading over new brochures from vendors to learn about new products
Reading emails and responding to them
Correcting a problem that might have arisen with a client
Purchasing and learning to use a new software or product
Doing research when you are considering a new purchase i.e., a new computer
Creating a backup system for your computer files
Brainstorming/networking with other business owners to develop new ideas for your business

Let's make this interactive, email me with any activity that you do not see on the list below and we will access those items as well. Be sure to tune in next month for the answers. You might be surprised which activities are only worth $10 an hour.
