Hello My Hustlers, How's the Hustle Going?
For some summer is the best time for them because their hustle is based on the summer months. Like a Mr Soffee's ice cream truck coming around selling ice cream in the neighborhood. He/she could only do this in the summer. Or like Cony Island in Brooklyn they can only open in the warmer months. Because the winter is not ideal in New York to ride rides and be outside. The point I am making is some hustles make there money in a short period of time and some hustles die or shall I say slow down in the summer months. I have a few online stores and during the summer they are slooooow. But in the fall they pick back up again. So if you have a hustle like mine. While your slow these are some of the things that you can do for your hustle.
1. Brainstorm new ideas that will enhance and improve your hustle. If your thinking about adding something new to your hustle try it for the summer and see if it will work. Make sure your not putting a lot of money in to this new project remember it's only a trial.
2. I know I talked about social media and your hustle should be on it. But if there's a platform that you feel would enhance your hustle and your not on it . Give it a try and see what happens.
3.“Summer-ize” Your Marketing Think of creative ways to incorporate summer themes into your marketing, such as blog posts, Facebook updates, newsletters, events, and more. Give your readers good summer content like grilling recipes, your summer reading list, or summer pet care tips. If applicable, you could even treat your top clients to a summer activity like golf, a baseball game, summer wine tasting, lunchtime barbecue, et Make this small and affordable.
4. Set Time Aside for Yourself As an entrepreneur, you’ve probably gotten used to working round the clock. Your clients and customers are taking vacation, so maybe you should to. Whether you take a two-week beach vacation or just make a point to set aside an hour to do something you enjoy every day, remember that it’s important to recharge your batteries in order to stay focused and motivated throughout the year.
5 Get Out of your comfort zone and make new connections. Like I stated before parades, concerts, festivals are all summer events. Take advantage of them have some fun and get out and meet new people for your hustle.
Happy Hustling
