Day 4

Subject: Are you trying to do too much, [firstname]?

Hi [firstname],

When you analyze all the time log data like I explained yesterday, you'll probably come to two conclusions.

1. You do more than you realize every day, and
2. Not all of it is important or profitable.

In order to spend your time more effectively, and get the most out of every working day, you need to prune your tasks so that you only spend time on what's important.  As an entrepreneur, you need to concentrate your time on things that help your business grow and develop.  Ideally, you should spend your time working ON your business rather than IN it.

I know that's easier said than done – especially in the early days when money is tight and you're having to do everything from overseeing your marketing strategy and landing clients, to making the coffee and taking out the trash, but as soon as it's feasible, you should consider delegating some routine tasks so you can concentrate on the more important stuff.

This doesn't necessarily mean that you need an office of full-time employees on the payroll. Thanks to the Internet, you can access an army of freelancers who are more than willing to handle those mundane, time consuming tasks. Start your search on sites like UpWork (https://www.upwork.com/) and Freelancer (https://www.freelancer.com/). The great thing is: The people here are professionals, and likely to be much better at this sort of stuff than you are anyway.  

Another payoff is that many people on these sites are from developing countries and charge much less than it would cost you to hire somebody local. As money goes further where they're at, they still make a good living.  Win/win situation for you both.  

You can also delegate to software.  For example you can use an autoresponder to send e-mails. Sites like Aweber [YOUR AWEBER AFFILIATE LINK HERE] and GetResponse [YOUR GETRESPONSE AFFILIATE LINK HERE] are good ones to try.

Incidentally, this message was sent to you by autoresponder and I hired a professional writer to write it.  I practice what I preach, [firstname]!

Warmly,

[Your Name]
