The First Thing I Do With Every Client

What is the number one thing I do with all my clients? It is so important we have them do this first. 

Well, they hate me when I tell them and I usually preempt it by saying, "I know you're gonna hate me for now, but in the end, you're gonna love me, I promise. If you just stick with it for five days."

What is it? A time audit.

Now, whenever I get into a client's business, we are very bad at remembering how much time we spend on things and how much we're actually doing. It can feel like the stuff that you absolutely hate doing takes hours and hours of your day when technically it could be maybe 20 or 30 minutes but it feels like forever. 

And because the way we remember things are typically untrue, there are such a thing as false memories, but also how we perceive things, that I need to know the real data so that way we can go through it. 

I actually use toggl.com, T-O-G-G-L.com, to have my clients track everything, even personal time, if they can. That way we can go through exactly what they're doing. Most of the time there's a lot of things that you can actually delegate that you have not yet. 

So, I challenge you this week, you'll hate me but you'll love me later, go Toggl for three to five days of everything you do in business. 

Have an amazing day.
