Can you believe it's only 3 months until Christmas! 😲

• If you’re having a pre-Christmas promotion, think of creating an online catalogue that links to the sale items on your website. Then you can promote the catalogue on your socials or email list.

• Over the coming months, make time to conduct a stock inventory, checking that you have enough products in stock for the Christmas rush, and place orders where products need restocking.

• If you’re releasing a new product over the Christmas period, don’t forget to schedule the listing so it publishes on your website.

• Remember to add product badges such as ‘New’ or ‘Limited Release’ to products on your website so buyers can easily see what’s new or has a limited release, which is important if the item is popular.

• If you’re having a pre-Christmas promotion think of creating an online catalogue that links to the sale items on your website. Then you can promote the catalogue on your socials or email list.

• If you know delivery delays are likely due to public holidays, business closure over the holiday period, or unavailability of suppliers during the holiday season, remember to add a note to your Shipping or Delivery policy.

• Finally, ensure that your website is functioning optimally and can accommodate increased traffic. Verify that all plugins and themes are current, and resolve any technical problems to guarantee a seamless customer experience as the festive season approaches.

By getting these tasks handled early, you can enjoy the season knowing your online store is running smoothly.

Are you tired of doing all the things?

If you are juggling your business, family commitments, or taking care of ageing parents, you may feel overwhelmed, stressed or worried that something is going to drop.

In this article, I discuss how outsourcing can help free up your time so you feel less overwhelmed and how it can ease your frustration by letting someone else deal with tasks you don't enjoy.

If you could remove one task from your to-do list so you had more time to...create, design, paint, photograph, etc. What would it be? Leave me your answer in the Comments below.

One of the reasons I started JAM was to help creatives like you manage your time better, so you can focus on your work and build a successful business. By outsourcing tasks that take up too much of your time, you allow yourself more time to do what makes you happy. 😃

Over the years, I have built websites for various business owners using platforms like Squarespace, WordPress and Shopify. During this time, one thing became clear - gathering and preparing content for a new website is often the most overwhelming part of the website process.

Whether you are building the website yourself or working with a web designer, by having your content and other essential items ready at the get-go, you can avoid delays and quickly get the website built and running.

While you may have images and some web copy started, here are some other essential items you will need.

These include:

* Web Host provider - If you haven't already signed up for a web host provider, make sure you research different Australian web host providers and the plans they have available. Do they offer a free domain name, SSL Certificate and 24/7 support? These are a few things to look for when researching web host providers.

* Website platform - Have you decided on a website platform? If you want to maintain your website and are not tech-savvy, you may consider a user-friendly template platform such as Squarespace or Wix, compared to WordPress, which can require more technical abilities and plugins.

* Domain name - Have you secured your unique domain for your business? An .com.au will show that you are an Australian business.

* Business email - Have you purchased a business email? Most web host providers will sell business emails along with domain names.

* Google account - Do you have a Google account for your business? This is essential when connecting your website to Google Search Console and Google Analytics.

* Social media accounts - Do you know the URLS of your social media profiles/pages?

* Stripe/PayPal accounts - If you want to sell downloads, products, or memberships, you may wish to set up accounts with either Stripe or PayPal to process your orders.

These are just a few essentials you need to think about when building your website. If you find the idea of designing a website overwhelming and need help getting your business online, I am now taking bookings for October.

I recently helped Nina with a little website refresh!

The project involved adding a fresh colour palette so it aligned with her new logo and brand colours, changes to the page layout, bespoke imagery, and some content updates to pages.

Thank you for the lovely words, Nina. It was a pleasure to work with you..

When was the last time you freshened up your website?

A website is a powerful marketing tool that ensures you remain competitive in today’s market. It provides a platform for showcasing your products or services, and gives customers access to your business 24/7.

Your website should keep users engaged and interested. Regular updates not only improve functionality but also enhance user experience, making it easier for potential clients to navigate and find what they need.

Remember, your website is often the first interaction someone has with your brand, so make it count!

Hey creatives!

Do you ever find yourself getting stressed when trying to schedule social media posts or sending newsletters to your mailing list?

Does technology frustrate you to a point where you switch your laptop off and on again?

If you are wasting hours playing around with technology that you aren’t experienced in, it can take you twice as long to complete a task.

All that time could be better spent working on a new piece of work, or completing something that brings you joy rather than frustration.

When you have too much on your plate, it can negatively affect creativity and overwhelm your mind, making it hard to relax and engage in the creative process.

Your mind becomes cluttered with all the things you need to get done leaving no room for creative thought.

By outsourcing your marketing and admin tasks, your mind will feel clearer as you clear up those tasks on your to-do list, giving you more energy to create.

Get in touch with JAM and ask us how we can help with your growing to-do list.

Thank goodness it's finally Spring. This winter has been the worst for my family. We have had the worst flu-like virus infect our household these past few weeks. I'm slowly recovering from it, but it's hard when I have to take care of others, and all I want to do is stay in bed.
