January Check List
2022/01/01 6:00 AM
So the new year is under way……..and there are so many things to be doing right now…….. is your head spinning yet? To grow your business you need a plan month by month. I wanted to give you a short but detailed check list to be sure you remember all the things you can be doing (and hopefully are already doing) to jump start your year and make this an AMAZING one!
I know doing all these things might seem overwhelming but if you take small steps each day to stay on task, you’ll be amazed at how much you can accomplish. Try to set aside an hour a day, at least, to work on whatever you have left to do on my suggested check list below. These things will help your sales, exposure and overall brand. They are a MUST to keep up with todays fast moving world.
If you are not sure where to start, be sure to join my free Facebook Group so I can help you. Fiverr can be a great place to get line sheets made or even find someone to work on your email campaigns if you don’t have time.

Sarah, as always you are right on time, I needed this. My list is long, but this will help me to focus. Thanks!
kylie says:hi sarah… massive fan of your work lovely 🙂
quick question… how do you gain access to buyers???? ive sent emails upon emails with no response… not even a rejection letter… sooooo frustrating…
many thanks
kylie
Kylie – You really need to be persistant…….. calling all the time, emailing…..staying on top of them. Send new stuff to show when possible. They like that.
Well, the twins will be here in 35 days, but I am happy to report that I am done with half of the list. Thank you so much for posting it and if everything goes well I will get the rest done as well. I am adding -starting designing and scheduling fall collection- to the list for myself since the forecasts are out.

Sarah is exactly what I have been looking for to take my business to the next level. She brings a ton of experience to the table and saves time, money and headaches with her plethora of resources. I've had my business for 14 years and I've always felt like I was missing pieces for wholesale growth and online growth. Sarah filled that gap in more ways than I could have imagined. Our wholesale quadrupled in the first month of implementing her wholesale practices. We are just getting started and I'm excited to continue growing my business with Sarah as my go to girl for when I get stuck. If you're willing to put in the work, Sarah will take you to new levels in your business. I can't recommend Sarah enough! - Traci Dalrymple, Founder, Kokokahn Essential Oils![]()
