One of the most common places on websites to be forgotten are the portfolio and testimonial sections. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Regardless of the type of work you do, it’s likely that you have work to show off or at the very least testimonials from happy clients / customers that you can show off.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
However, so many people don’t take the time to update these sections on their site. 🤦🏻‍♀️🙈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re a designer, and you haven’t updated your portfolio in 6 months, think about what that says to people who are thinking about hiring you. In 6 months you’re growing as a designer, your style may be shifting, you may have created one of your best projects ever. Leaving those types of updates out of your portfolio can actually hold you back from booking new projects.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Testimonials work the same way, especially if you don’t create visual work for your clients. If I’m thinking about hiring a coach or a copywriter, I totally understand that you may not have anything to actually show me before I inquire with you. However, I want to see that people have worked with you in the past and what their results have been.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Set a few hours aside before the end of the year to get some new work and fresh testimonials uploaded to your website.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Bonus points if you use that new work and testimonials to show off what you do and pitch your services on social media!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Today is going to be a mix of work and play around here. Working on an amazing freebie coming your way on Wednesday, but I’m thinking about making some pumpkin spice cookies 😍 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It seems like everywhere you look people are talking about how the new year (and a new decade) is right around the corner. I’m not going to lie… the posts about this being the end of the decade freak me out 🙈 but that’s not what this post is about.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I generally looove this time of year. There’s something so fun about sitting down and creating a plan for the next year.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But before you get too deep in your planning for next year, it’s important to make sure you’ve taken care of everything that currently needs your attention… like your website.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s so easy to forget about the little things here and there when you’re busy running your business throughout the year, which is why I wanted to spend this week giving you 6 places on your website to review and update before the new year.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These different pages and content locations that I’m covering are the ones that are usually the most forgotten (or purposefully ignored… I see you avoiding rewriting your About page 😬).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Head over to the link in my bio to read this week’s blog post, and be sure to come back and let me know which place is going to be your number one priority to update before 2020!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Ask yourself this question: what if you finally loved your website? 🤔👩🏻‍💻🥰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You loved it so much you couldn't wait to show it off with your followers and friends. You loved it so much that you were excited to spend time creating content and sending people to learn more about what you do. You loved it so much that you confidently sent your potential clients + customers straight to your URL to book their project or buy your product.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This IS possible for you, and I want you to love your website so much that it's a no brainer for you to show up for your people and take action to grow your business in 2020.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I want that for you so 👏🏼 much 👏🏼 that I had to kick off my Black Friday sale a few hours earlier than last year.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

'Twas the night before Thanksgiving, and all through the house... Oh wait, wrong holiday 😅😜⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But seriously... the day before taking off for a holiday can be STRESSFUL. If you're anything like me then this week has been crammed with getting as much work done as possible so you can fully enjoy a work-free weekend.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you didn't get it all done, take a few minutes today to set yourself up for success next week - you know when things are crazy because now it's AFTER a big holiday.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How can you do that? Go through your “master” to do list and schedule your tasks throughout the week for next week. This could be in Asana, Trello, or a physical planner.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Once you get all of your items laid out for the week, prioritize them! When you sit down to work on Monday, what's going to be the most important task for the day? Make a note of that for yourself, and then do the same for the rest of the week.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Knowing exactly what you need to get done each day and the priority of your tasks is going to help you feel much more relaxed when you get back to work after taking the rest of the week off. You won't sit down to work on Monday feeling panicked because "everything" has to get done right away.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you want more tips on how I get stuff done and stay productive, head to the link in my bio to go to my blog and look for my 5 Secrets to Getting Stuff Done post (or go to codedcreative.co/getstuffdone).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
P.s. Be sure to check this space tomorrow, because the Coded Creative Black Friday sale officially goes live at 4pm EST on November 28th!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
