No one talks about the one asset you can't raise… your time. 2.If you've ever spent hours prepping for a client just to break even, delivered amazing work that took more out of you than it gave back, it might be worthwhile to track you time. 3. Time is your most limited, non-renewable resource. Money can be replaced. 4. Time is the invisible labor in your business, from admin to prep, content creation, client communication, setup, cleanup, and everything in between. 5. Calculate how much time went into prep, during, and post. Then subtract taxes, fees, and costs which will bring your real return. 6. Hidden time costs are everywhere. From travel time you don't bill for, to client follow-ups on your days off, to team management and inventory issues, it all adds up. 7. Here's how to protect and optimize your time: Create repeatable processes, batch content and communication, schedule work during your best energy hours, use time-based pricing, and track your time for one week to see where your hours actually go. 8. Scaling isn't just adding clients, it's reclaiming time so you can build with intention. 9.
