Did you know habit stacking makes things easier? And your morning habits set the tone for the day ☕

Whether it’s starting with your favourite coffee or yoga session, then diving into checking your numbers before the big tasks of the day, building small, consistent habits makes business life smoother. 💡

Habit stacking is all about linking small actions together. When you add something you already do, like having that morning coffee, with a task you need to get done, you naturally create a routine. Over time, these little habits blend into your day, making things feel effortless and automatic.

Big thanks to our lovely client, @getdosed.co for making sure we get our caffeine hit and keep things running smoothly! Once you get into a habit stacking flow, your routine becomes second nature. For me, it’s coffee first, then straight into checking the numbers.

⚠️ Are you making this costly Xero Mistake?

One of the biggest mistakes I see small business owners make is not connecting all their automated bank feeds in Xero. Here’s why it matters:

If you haven’t connected every business account, you could be missing transactions, making your financial records inaccurate. This could lead to nasty surprises like unexpected tax bills or cash flow issues 💸.

Here’s how you can fix it:
✅ Connect all your business accounts (PayPal, Stripe, etc.), but leave your personal accounts out.
✅ Review your transactions weekly.
✅ Set aside time monthly to reconcile your Xero with your bank statements for complete accuracy.

📊 Is Your Profit Healthy This Sales Season?

As we close out the first quarter of the financial year, and with Black Friday and Christmas promos full steam ahead, there's one number you need to be laser-focused on—your profit! What's the point of running sales if you’re only breaking even or worse, selling at a loss? 😱

I recently had a discovery call with a lovely business owner, and when I asked how their profit margins were shaping up, they couldn’t answer. And guess what? That’s more common than you’d think!

While profit isn’t everything, it’s essential for keeping your business thriving. Knowing your costs and profit margins allows you to make smart decisions about discounts, bundles, and promotions—especially during the busy holiday season.

Here’s a tip: Take a deep dive into your numbers now to set yourself up for success in this sales rush. 🎯
