Fall Business Checklist for Entrepreneurs

September 21, 2018 by Danyelle Little

Autumn is the most lucrative time for many small businesses. Download my free Fall Business Checklist for Entrepreneurs, and rock it out.

Fall is here, which means it is time to pivot and focus on the season in order to maximize sales and make a profit. This is a great time to focus on bundling up your products and services to seize the upcoming holiday sales that will be pouring in.

Are you ready?

I’ve compiled a Fall Business Checklist for Entrepreneurs that fit most business models and niches and can be used to help keep you focused and organized during autumn.

Stock up and bundle

A huge sales season is getting ready to be underway, so if you sell products, it’s time to stock up on them. Economists predict that this holiday shopping season is going to start early, so be prepared and order about 10% more than you did last year.

If you sell products that you make, start working on them now and make sure to also create  few bundles to really drive home a profit.

Create sales campaigns

It’s time to work on your sales campaigns for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Shop Small, and Cyber Monday. Write down your sales goals for each campaign and then begin crafting your strategy, which should include email marketing, social media, and online ads.

Six Ways to Live Your Life Like a Boss

July 27, 2018 by Danyelle Little

Being a true Boss isn't about a title, but how you conduct yourself and how you treat others. I'm sharing Six Ways to Live Your Life Like a Boss.

Most of us like to think that we are a BOSS, but fewer of us have the traits that are needed to be one. Being a boss is a coveted role in this society—and I’m not talking about the title given to one who is selected to manage a group of people in a work setting. I am talking about the characteristics of a person who runs things, who is looked up to, who handles themselves with honor and distinction, and who makes moves on the regular that help them achieve their goals consistently.

A Real Boss.

Yes, a true Boss is one who takes the bull by its horns each and every day without letting people see them sweat. Being bossed up isn’t about how much money you have or the type of car you drive, or how powerful you are. It is the feeling that you leave with people—one of excellence and professionalism. Yes, those are a few traits real bosses possess. And as I type this, I am assuming that if you are reading this yourself, then you are either a Boss or have the capability of being one. Because of that, you aren’t willing to settle for being status quo or regular—exceeding expectations is your credo.

I’ve devised a list of Six Ways to Live Your Life Like a Boss. And if you’re down for the cause, let’s get to work.

Bosses are resilient

If you are living a true Boss Lifestyle, then you have overcome an obstacle or ten. A boss earns their stripes by first failing, and then trying again over and over to get it right. You learn from your mistakes in order to perfect your technique, which makes you wise and someone that people look to for guidance. You’ve been through a lot, but you don’t allow your past and your story to define your future. Bosses know how to dust themselves off and try again, and you appreciate the win because you’ve had your share of losses.

Bosses don’t pass the buck

A true boss owns up to their mistakes and doesn’t give excuses or pass the buck to others. They admit when they’ve messed up, and don’t mind showing some vulnerability. A real Boss is human, and doesn’t strive to be something that they are not.

How to Use IGTV to Enhance Your Business or Brand

July 13, 2018 by Danyelle Little

I am sharing five ways how to use IGTV that can help personal brands, entrepreneurs, and businesses. Don't sleep on this new tool.

Back in June, Instagram released their latest rollout for creators—IGTV. Aimed at being a rival to YouTube, it allows users to create long-form video content that can be seen within the traditional Instagram app and also on a standalone IGTV application. Videos can be up to an hour and allow users to make compelling video content to compliment their Instagram channels.

As a lover of Instagram, I can see myself totally using this even more than YouTube. I find YouTube to be very user unfriendly, and since Instagram is where I’m at (and mostly everyone else is too), it can be a viable tool for business owners, imprints, and personal brands.

I’ve shot several IGTV videos, and I feel like I have a handle on it. I’ve been working on my strategy and how I will use it to propel my message, and if you aren’t using it already, you could be missing out.

If you are still on the fence, I’m sharing tips on how to use IGTV to enhance your business or brand below. Get ready to do some work.

Halfway Through 2018: 6 Tips to Help You Finish the Year Strong

June 29, 2018 by Danyelle Little

We are at the halfway mark for 2018. I've got some tips to help you finish the year strong, things that you can implement now so you conquer your goals.

Six months behind us—six months more to go.

You started 2018 strong and bold. You made a list of goals. You strategized. You planned. Things were going well and you were starting to make some headway. And then, as the year started moving into March and April and then May, you fell off. It’s easy to do, as creating habits and a consistent plan for your goals is hard for most to achieve. And now that we are about halfway through 2018, you aren’t where you want to be.

But the good thing about all of this is that you have the opportunity to shift and pivot and self correct. And you still have six months to finish the year on a good note and with your goals and achievements mission accomplished. I am sharing six tips to help you finish the year strong, and they are tips that I am also following to make sure that 2018 is the best year yet.

#1 Follow your own plan, not someone else’s

It can be easy to get caught up in what other people are doing. But while they are moving closer to their purpose, you remain stagnant. Here’s the deal: you can’t follow someone else’s blueprint, you have to create your own. The recipes to your secret sauce are authentic to you, your experiences, and your offerings. So go forward knowledgeable about trends and what’s going on in the space around you, but don’t copy it. You are a unique and talented individual who should be sharing your gifts with the world. Don’t look to others to chart your course—look to yourself.
