Part 2 of 4

Business

For a running business whose operations need keeping running, and for a business with a date to meet: an event, or a holiday let's first guests.

Beside the operations side, the inbox, the diary and the systems, there is the marketing side: her social media and online presence service.

The Inbox Detox

An inbox, before and after

An example of a detox. Watch the string close round it as the messages sort into four folders, then sort and unsort it yourself.

Prices include any VAT due.

If you book as a consumer, you can change your mind up to 14 days after the day you agree the package. Work starts inside those 14 days only if you ask for it; if you then cancel, you pay for the work already done, in proportion. If you ask for work to start inside the 14 days and agree that you lose the right to cancel once it is finished, you can no longer cancel after the work is complete.

What a week of posts looks like

Three example posts for a small business, each with a picture, a short caption in plain words and its tags.

An example

Three posts, with their tags

  • Your business

    A clear pale-oak desk by a sash window, card folders in a letter rack, a closed notebook and a desk lamp.

    Monday, and the desk is clear. Every invoice filed, every reply sent. A calm start to the week.

    #SmallBusiness #Bath #MondayPlanning #Organised

  • Your business

    A small shop unit ready to open, a pale-oak counter with labelled trays and stock in neat rows on oak shelving.

    The shelves are stocked and the doors open on Saturday. Come and say hello.

    #ShopLocal #NewShop #Bristol #OpeningDay

  • Your business

    Rows of oak chairs set out in a bright stone room facing a blank screen, a welcome table by the door.

    Chairs out, name badges ready. See you at tonight's spring workshop.

An event, planned

A business event, planned remotely: what it costs, who is coming and a timed run sheet for the day.

A workshop room made ready before guests arrive: rows of oak chairs facing a blank screen, and a welcome table by the door with blank name badges and jugs of water.
