What’s going on LL here and welcome back to the podcast.  Today I am talking about math lol.  But this is good math I promise.  Simple math when it comes to your business can make goals seem more obtainable and really take some of the pressure off.  Let’s dive into today’s show…

Remember in school when you took geometry or algebra and you wondered how the heck that would help you in the real world… maybe you were stupid like me and took pre-calculus and stats as well..  Well, you were right.. most of that math is useless practically.  But I find myself using a ton of basic math to help me set goals and run my business.  I am honestly obsessed with it.  Breaking things down into bite sizes pieces just takes a lot of stress away.

I can’t believe I’m talking about the holidays again!  Last year was ummm special.  Many challenges with covid and logistics in general.  But it did teach us one thing as business owners.  To be prepared and think outside the box.  I always say this...  Entrepreneurs, meaning small business owners, that’s you… are problem solvers.  Throwing up your hands and giving up is not an option or at least something I don’t condone!  

As of this recording, we have 4 months until Christmas, 3 months until Thanksgiving/black Friday/cyber Monday, 2 months until Halloween.  Holiday prep starts now! Yikes

Let's talk about some things you can do to ensure you have a smooth and successful holiday season.
