Scheduling
Job is another import aspect of any business that performs services either on
or off the premises. Mechanic, handyman, contractor, photographer, ll need a scheduling plan. Another work

days and hours you will be available and build a calendar with those dates and
times, Divide the time up into one hour segments for
as many hours you plan to be available.
This is a powerful tool when it comes

basically a To-Do-List set in time. Once you have established availability, you
can set up a series of tasks to form your routine.
