Episode 066: When Business Isn't Sexy: How to Avoid Backend Burnout
Tune In on Your Favorite Platform!
Are you struggling with burnout because you are trying to do too much by yourself for your henna business? One of the biggest reasons entrepreneurs end up with burnout is because they refuse to bring on help and try to juggle too many tasks on their own. Hennapreneurs are generally artists first and business owners second. If you are realizing that certain parts of running your business do not bring you joy, finding ways to automate or outsource them can save you in the long run.
The first tip for avoiding burnout is to put everything that needs to get done on your calendar. Schedule time that is set aside for doing the back-end tasks necessary for running your business and plan around social time, family time, and anything else that you want to work around. Then take a look at what tasks you are doing that you really don’t enjoy, such as bookkeeping or rolling cones. Find a way to outsource or automate that task, whether that means using a software program or hiring someone to help you. The task might not get done exactly the way you would have done it, but it will still get done and that is ultimately what matters. Allow yourself grace and be patient with yourself as you get new systems set up and you will find that your business will run more smoothly than ever before.
Tune into this week’s episode of Hennapreneur to learn more about how to avoid burnout when doing back end business tasks and how automation and outsourcing can help you run your business more efficiently.
