For many women and mom entrepreneurs, summer months mean the kids are home on break…and for some, the business takes one too. With 5 of my own kids running wild and bouncing off the walls these days, I can understand why many of us choose to slow down, cutback, or close up shop altogether, to spend time with our little people and enjoy time off.
As tempting as it may sound…the worse thing you could do is kill your momentum just because it’s summer. This is actually the best time to step your game up because so many other home based business owners will be sleeping in or lounging out pool side…BUT…
You may be thinking, “well, I actually want to spend more time with my kids at the park or the beach.” Or, “my family goes away during this time of year.” “I don’t have time to run my business full-time.”
Well, what if you could have the best of both worlds?
There are 2 things you can do. First, if you are really strapped for time, you can get someone to manage your social media for you.
Second, you can do it yourself by finding the best online tools that will do what you need to get done and implement them in your marketing!
This is a practice I use regularly (more so when my kids are on breaks) and many of my colleagues do too (savvy women run in packs…you didn’t know). The types of tools you need are those that will automate much (not all), of your social media activity.
So, here’s a quick lineup of some of my favorite tools and what I’m using right now:
