Sometimes I get up at 3am
Sometimes, most often when a child has come running into my bed in the middle of the night and I get up. Once I'm up - I'm up. Only like twice have I ever been able to lay down and go back to sleep right away. I don't mind it thought sometimes. It's nice to have a quiet house, a quiet Facebook and an opportunity to just do me. Here are some things you can do at 3am to benefit your business.
1) Watch Ted Talks - great time to take it all in and just consume the info being fed to you.
2) Outreach - cold message folks from groups who have asked questions pertaining to your business. Use keywords to search for the questions that you think your ideal buyer may have used. Drop them a cold message and wait. Often you will be the first message in their inbox when they wake up. The average user checks Facebook within 7 minutes of waking up! If you can connect with someone in those early morning minutes, solve their pain point you can put your self on the way to your first sale of the day!
3) Schedule your social media - take one hour and sit down and schedule out all your social media content that you need on FB or IG. Remember to keep your buyers pain points and how you solve them in mind. If you drop out a recipe for your favorite cocktail you want to think does my buyer drink alcohol? If they don't then don't drop it out.
4) Back accounting - distractions have already been eliminated, put your earbuds in and rock out to some jam's while you catch up on your accounting.
5) Schedule networking meetings - where are they, when are they and put them on your calendar. I enjoy looking at conferences that peeked my interest.
These are easy but can have a big impact in your revenue generation for your business!
