3 tips for the self-employed bookie

Look at the bright side, and learn from it

Instead of looking only at the obstacles, pay attention to what is actually working right. For instance, if you have a lot of clients but can’t seem to make sizable income, analyze what is driving all those clients to your business, what makes it work and why it is not generating enough income. How else can you exploit your situation, what can you do differently? Analyze what is working for you in other areas or on other projects and use that knowledge to push your sports business forward.  

Timing is gold

When you have all day to work on whatever you want, it’s very easy to get distracted or work on tasks that contribute less to the business. Set aside the most important tasks for your business—those that will help it develop and grow. Make a daily to-do list and give priority to those tasks. This way, you know that if you’re working in something outside that list, you’re not using time as efficiently as you could. It will be difficult to stick to a schedule at first but once you get the hang of it, your business will be developing much faster. Those tasks don’t have to be written in stone either. Once you complete certain goals or your business needs a change of direction, it is perfectly fine to change those tasks. As a matter of fact, make sure you revise those tasks regularly and make sure they are still the most important and top priority tasks for the business to grow. This is an example of what such a list would look like.

• -Getting new clients
• -Follow up on existing clients
• -Analyze reports
• -Build/maintain website
