To delegate or not to delegate – that is the question. You know that you are running your Face Painting or Children’s Entertainment business just as you would like to, and often think that you are the only one that can do certain tasks, sort certain problems and provide certain administration input successfully. In most cases you probably are.

Sometimes,Delegate Your Face Painting Tasks And Free Up Your Time To Concentrate On Wealth Creation Articles however, things just get a little on top of you and it’s the usual scenario of ‘so much to do and so little time’. Sometimes you just have too many things to do on your to list that and sometimes you are crying out for a helping hand.

So how do you start to delegate in order to relieve some of the pressure of running your Face Painting or Children’s Entertainment services. How do you let go of some of those tasks that take up too much of your time, or are just too menial or are just plain boring!

Well start off by making a list of everything; yes everything, that you do on a daily, weekly and monthly basis for your Face Painting or Entertainment business. No matter how small or trivial the action or task might be – record it!

Next type out those business actions into a list and rate each one accordingly as follows, using a different coloured highlighter pen:

  1. Too Involved
  1. Too Easy
  1. Too Boring
  1. Too Time Consuming
  1. Too Difficult

Now it’s time to delegate certain actions on your list to other people – family, friends, a PA or VA, and professional bodies, in order for you to free up more of your time for the more important strategies of running your business and moving it forward into wealth creation.

Let’s take some examples here:

  1. Too Involved -
    these actions should be done by you and only you and will generally be based on all your marketing activities.
  1. Too Easy –
    could your children give you a hand with these actions like cleaning your kit and equipment, or stuffing envelopes for mail shots or leaflets drops in the local neighbourhood?
  1. Too Boring –
    maybe enlist the help of family members to update your mail merge and customer database and to do your internet research.
  1. Too Time Consuming -
    can you afford a PA or VA to send out your confirmation of bookings and invoices, types out your brainstorm notes, write envelopes and update your blogs, facebook and twitter.
  1. Too Difficult -
    maybe you need paid professional expertise in areas such as accounting and tax returns, business planning, cash flow forecasting, website management and email sequencing.

By freeing up your time and delegating more will allow you to focus on the key growth areas of your Face Painting or Children’s Entertainment business. This wealth creation area is the marketing side of your business, which you should be investing 100% of your available time into.

You and only you will have the drive and the passion to grow your business by using effective marketing tactics.  So invest as much of your time where needed, where the money is coming from!
