As we hit the holiday months, it’s going to be even tougher to close out 2010 in a strong fashion due to time demands, etc. While we may not be toasting each other at midnight if these do (or don’t) get done, they are still important to allow us to kick start 2011.  We thought it might help you out a little by sharing our “By Year End” to do list to inspire you to create your own “By Year End To Do List”:

• Plan for a successful New Year in 2011 – Review work & determine what new services we can add for our clients.
• Offer Upgrade Packages and Face Lifts for Clients – Within the last couple months there have been some important upgrades for Joomla and WordPress – there is more information about this HERE.
• Update our portfolio – add new work onto RKN site (most have been updated except the sites we are either just finishing or have just finished in the last mo. – check them out HERE)
• Clean up email inbox – this one is pretty tough, but we’re working on it.
• Organize work area – we JUST finished this one. Boy it feels better to have a workable workspace.
• Review our Social Media Strategy – seems like this would be an easy one, but just like you, we struggle with finding time to do our social media stuff that we know needs to be done to grow our business. It does take commitment and we’re going to make it a priority going into 2011.
• Assess Our Marketing Strategy – believe it or not, we’ve not really worried about this since we started this business. RKN Studio hasn’t had to worry about finding clients because they find us through our loyal & awesome customers who refer them to us (have I mentioned, we give prizes for referrals yet?… we do!). This year, we are finally going to take the plunge and focus on some marketing to take RKN Studio to the next level.
• Develop Client Appreciation Program – We have some really fun ideas on what to do for this but can’t tell you just yet!
