Another week has just flown by! I’m half way through the summer session for Irish dance classes and totally loving it! I’m still having to get used to budgeting my time for all of my activities…work, dance classes, dancing at the pub, talking to Jim on the phone, and even making time to work out. I underestimated how much additional time would be involved in running my own business – there’s a lot of time used behind the scenes with paperwork, marketing and scheduling. I think that once I get through all of the “firsts” (first schedule, first lessons, first class handouts, etc.), things will be easier and take less time the second time around. Even though my expenses right now are minimal, I’m glad that I’ve had six months of financial coaching under my belt before getting my business started. It definitely has me approaching it with a plan. The budgeting that Jim and I are doing personally is really helping me budget for my business both financially and in regards to time management.
In addition to teaching, I’m trying to get my name out there as much as possible to promote classes for the fall. Some of my girls helped me with a performance at the T-Bones this past weekend. We had so much fun and got a lot of good, free PR. My coach Charlie just happened to be at the game in the same section that we danced! He took some pictures that I’ll get posted this week. I went in to the summer with a goal of how many students I wanted to have and I’ve already almost doubled that! My goal for the fall is to double it again - I like having the set number to work towards and measure my progress.
