How to Do an Annual Calendar Audit

April 13, 2023

I plan my time out a year in advance – while that might sound crazy, trust me when I say it’s a complete life changer! 

Now, I don’t plan out every minute (obviously…), but I DO block off times in my calendar for specific things that I know I need to plan in advance, or else they’ll never get done. 

annual calendar audit how-to

What are these things I plan out so far in advance, you ask? Honestly, I’d encourage you to keep track of EVERYTHING in your calendar; not just your business meetings and doctor’s appointments, but your mommy/daughter dates, happy hour with friends, and financial dates. 

It’s important to plan out the things that will bring me energy. That means self-care, rest, family time, you know, all the things we are tempted to skip when things get busy. But we can’t skip these essentials because they’re what keep us from burning out! 

This week’s episode walks you through how to do an annual calendar audit (looking back) and plan for the year ahead (looking forward). Bust out your color-coding, we’re getting down to business!

Here are the categories to create mentioned in this podcast:

Work

  • Development hours
  • Meetings
  • Finances
  • Marketing
  • Networking

Personal

  • Self-care
  • Relationships
  • Fun & vacations
  • Volunteering
  • Books

Listen in for step-by-step details on how to do your own audit and plan for your most abundant year yet! 

Tune in now!

A lot of small business owners assume an agency is out of reach until the budget gets bigger. 

We'd push back on that. The right starting point isn't about how much you spend, it's about where you put it.

This client started at $350/month. Swipe to see the story.

We don't just build websites for our clients. We show up for them.

Before a single page was designed, we were on site walking the build, understanding the materials, feeling the scale of what Laurie and Bob were creating. 

That's what it takes to build something that actually represents the work.
This is what boutique looks like behind the scenes.

Most agencies need your ads running. We just need them working.

Your business doesn't operate the same way every month, your marketing shouldn't have to either. Some months you're ready to invest heavily. Some months you need to pull back, shift priorities, or pause entirely. We built our ads model around that reality.

No contracts locking you in. No minimum spend requirements. No pressure to keep campaigns running when the timing isn't right. Just flexible, strategic advertising that works around your business — and results that make every dollar count.

Meet Bre Russell of @femthrive!

If you've ever said ""I don't have time to work on my business"" or ""we have revenue but we're never actually making money,"" Bre is who you need in your corner.

- a 24-page personalized report on your business
- a strategic roadmap for the next 12 months 
- a complimentary 90-minute deep dive to get into it 

No pitch. Just real, high-level insight from someone who has been in the trenches herself.
