Today we are talking about habit #3 that secretly affects your productivity, which is Checking Social Media.
Social media is more than a way to view memes, gifs, and videos, as well all know. It has transformed into a platform that benefits businesses at every turn, when managed properly.
As an entrepreneur, you may be handling your social media by yourself.
The only challenge with this is that checking your social media can be a slippery slope, as you might already have experienced more than you care to admit. You may open any of your platforms to reply to a message or just to take a look at your insights or performance for a minute.
This can quickly devolve into hours of watching funny videos, liking posts, and jumping from page to page, and one attraction to another.
Instead of doing this, simply turn off all your social media notifications and put your phone out of sight. When you do this, you can focus on the most important high payoff tasks you have to handle to move your business forward.
Strictly follow the allotted time block when you handle your social media services. Once the time allotted is up, put your device away or close the apps or tabs and turn your focus to other high payoff activities. This will help you improve your productivity.
If you are the only one to do social media marketing, time block when you will do this activity. I recommend not doing this during prime time, of course. Ideally, you can hire this activity to someone else who is an expert because it can be delegated and doesn’t need to be done by you. You should only do what you can do and can’t be done by anyone else.
Tune in tomorrow for habit #4 that secretly affects your productivity.
