Task Stacking

Good evening!

In case your are interested in what that looks like for me this is my run down for today:

  • 2am Meet with developers about some issues and features on Legiit
  • 2:30 Go back to sleep for a bit
  • 5am Shower/Shave/Get Dressed etc…
  • 6am respond to any support tickets that came in overnight that need my specific attention
  • 7am Send Legiit payouts from previous day
  • 8am check in with staff to see if they have everything they need for the day
  • 9am Karate
  • 11am Make Legiit Monday posts for Superstar SEO
  • 12pm Lunch
  • 1pm run yesterdays numbers and plan sales strategy for the rest of the week
  • 2pm 1-on-1 consulting call
  • 3:30pm 1-on-1 consulting call
  • 5pm write this email/post
  • 6pm 1-on-1 consulting call
  • 7pm dinner
  • 7:30pm reply to all Legiit messages, FB messages, and email that came in throughout the day
  • 8pm Send Legiit payments for the day
  • 8:30 pm answer any tickets that require my personal attention
  • 9pm do something not work related (TV, book etc…)
  • 10pm ZZZZZZZ

So as you can see this was a fairly light day 🤪

But the thing I want to talk about is stacking similar tasks. As you can see I have 3 1-on-1 consulting calls in the same day. That’s not an accident, I try to batch them that way.

There are a few reasons for this, the first is that our minds just function better that way. Symmetry is beauty to the mind, the more symmetry we create, the better we will perform. The other is that the fulfillment of these 1-on-1 sessions is not an income producing activity (the sale of them was, the fulfillment is not) so by stacking them all in one day it allows me to just write off that day as far as income production is concerned and frees up other days fully.

That’s really what business, and Profiit are all about right? Generating more sales.

So even though there are some non revenue producing tasks every day, if you have a way to dump them all into a single day of the week you will get much better time optimization. Time/task management is something I will dig into more specifically in future broadcasts, but for today I thought you might get some benefit of seeing my day, and from the tip about task stacking.

What are some tasks in your week that you can stack into one day to make you more efficient?

Let me know in the Profiit Academy Facebook group.

Best,
Chris
