Do You Have Your Goals for the Last Quarter of the Year?

Here we are already in Fall!  The weather is changing and why not your business or career.

Maybe you have come across people already saying that they don’t want to start anything until after the holidays.

Are you ready to get through the Major 3 upcoming holidays?  First you have Thanksgiving, which leads into Christmas and then New Years. 

Life doesn’t stop just for the holidays so you need to set some goals to keep your career or business on track and moving forward even through the holidays.

Here are some goals you can set to get you started:

Business Owners:

1. Put together a marketing plan for the rest of the year.
2. Look at your products and services…what kind of discount or special can you give people to celebrate the holidays but keep them buying? 
3. Take time off to focus on your creations for the coming year.
4. Network!  This can be done any time of the year and is a great way to get yourself in front of those people that you want to work with. 
5. Housekeeping.  This is something we all have to keep up with in our business.  

Career Professionals:

1. Put together a career marketing plan for the rest of the year
2. Look at your products and services… the product:  you.  the services:  what you bring to the table. 
3. Take time off for career strategy planning for the coming year.
4. Network!  This can be done any time of the year and is a great way to get yourself in front of those people that you want to work with. 
5. Housekeeping.  This is something we all have to keep up with in our career.  What needs to be tackled first?  Your work office or your home office? 

Power up for the last quarter of the year!  Fall into Action! Finish 2011 strong!!!
