At first you will be able to handle your office work by yourself but as you get more clients things may become a little overwhelming. Here are some signs that you may need to reach out for some help and outsource some office support.
1. You’re feeling overwhelmed
The feeling that you’re drowning in work is never a nice feeling. Do something about it and outsource some office support instead of letting the feeling consume you. It will help you to complete other work to a higher quality if you aren’t feeling as rushed.
2. The to-do list is longer than your arm
When your list is growing, and you know you don’t have time to complete them on time then find some tasks which someone else could complete for you.
3. Your diary is full
Your diary will soon fill up as you gain more clients and that is a good thing! But you don’t want your diary to be so full that you don’t do anything else. Free up some time in your diary.
4. Cancelling or forgetting about plans
When you start to cancel plans because of work or worse, forget about plans then it would be a good idea to get some support. You don’t want work to take over your social life, it isn’t fun or healthy for your or your relationships!
5. You work through your weekends
Don’t start getting into the habit of working through your weekends! You need time to relax, take a break from work and change your thoughts towards something a little less stressful.
