Ep 212: The No BS Way: Scheduling Your T...

Pia Silva
About this episode

How do you schedule your day? Do you plan your week out? Do you know what you're working on every single day?  Or are you in reactive mode and constantly playing a guessing game for when you’ll hit project milestones?


Been there, done that, and trust me, there is a better way.


This month, we’re talking about the default way that most agencies run their businesses and how the No BS Way can be much more efficient and effective, bringing you the freedom and ease you wanted out of starting your own business.


In this episode, I talk about something that has an immediate impact on how you spend your days: Scheduling.


Tune into this episode to hear:

  • How intensives simplify your calendar and make scheduling projects a snap
  • How scheduling “in chunks” gives you time to build your business and live your life
  • Why the default way of juggling multiple projects at once is creatively and practically inefficient
