Yesterday (as well as being so productive), I ate lunch with a new Professional Organizer, Andrew Neary of organizingbyANDREW (he has tonnes of energy and will do very well for himself, I'm sure).
We met up because he wanted to pick my brain about the industry. He's just finished a 10 week government-funded program on starting one's own business. Andrew came out of this program with a very detailed business plan. I looked it over and was reminded yet again why I'm not running a service-based business anymore. There's just too much frickin' detail!
Writing, however, is a business and so I decided that I need a business plan. My business plan doesn't take pages and pages of writing. In fact, the whole plan can be reduced to a simple math-like equation:
Business plan = (Write + (Submit + Wait)Repeat until accepted)Repeat until death.
Simple, eh?
