Off Season Goal Recap

Business

March 28, 2014

My off season ends this weekend, so I thought I’d go over my off season goals and see how I did!

Try out some new ways to deliver my images to clients. I tried a couple of different companies, and Pixieset ended up meeting my and my clients needs best! More on that soon.

Update client lounge. I didn’t do this…mostly because I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted to change! I’m still keeping it on my to-do list though.

Revamp packaging. Yes and no. I think I’ve come to realize that I’m always going to be adding things to my packaging or tweaking it a little bit. I just love packaging so much and I really enjoy making custom, FUN packages for people to open from me.

Learn the ins and outs of Pixifi. Sort of?? I’ve figured out a lot of what I need from Pixifi, but the thing is, there are so many features, I’m constantly uncovering cool new things it does. And they are always MAKING new things too!

Refresh the images on my website. Yes! Done. But I’ll probably be updating it again and again as the year goes on. Luckily, since I have a Showit site, it’s literally only a couple seconds out of my day to make the changes!

Shoot video. Yes. I’ve been having fun taking video of Lucy for a personal project I’m working on…hopefully I will be able to put it together into something to share with you guys soon!

Paint a chalkboard wall in my office. Yes! There are some things I need to do to the office to finish it up, but once those are done, I’ll photograph it and share the results with you guys!

Host Envision. I still can’t believe this happened! It was definitely an experience I’ll never forget! Read more about that here.

Cook dinner 3-4 nights a week. You know what? I don’t know if this is even realistic for me, and that’s okay. I love cooking, but I’m just not a cook 3-4 nights a week person. I’m a take out person. Or heat something up person. Or maybe I just need to be better at time management? I always feel like cooking for us is the last thing on my list! I’d be a terrible housewife! But you know what? I’m okay with that! We all have our strengths and while mine may not be in wifely duties, I’m good at other things! I mean, I just ran a marathon, does that count for something?? Haha.

So excited to kick off our 2014 wedding season with these two tomorrow!

    I love this post!! I need to create a new to-do list for myself too! And I completely know what you mean about not cooking 3-4 nights! It’s the hardest thing for me!!! 🙁 Have a lovely weekend!

    Yay- you got a lot done! I need to make one of these seasonal lists too

  3. I hear you on the cooking dinner more throughout the week…we’ll end up cooking 2 to 3 big meals (and make a ton of extra food), so we can easily heat up the left overs. It’s quick, easy, and it saves us money!

    I have to do a to-do-list too! But I always end up with doing nothing on the list. So baaad!
