YOUTUBE Want to Finish the Year Strong? Do THIS in Your Business Right Now AdminSeptember 9, 202509 views ✨ Join me for my End Your Year Strong workshop: https://onebighappylife.com/eyys ✨Learn how to plan for profits in your business: https://onebighappylife.com/profitplan Quarterly planning is one of the most powerful ways to finish your year strong while actually enjoying the holiday season. In this video, I’m walking you through the five essential pieces of an end-of-year quarterly plan. You’ll learn how to set business priorities, match them with your real capacity, turn them into measurable goals, map out your projects and promotions, and choose the right metrics to track. This is the same process I use to take two full weeks off every December and still hit my business goals. If you’ve ever felt torn between business growth and enjoying your life, this approach will show you how to have both. And if you want to create your own plan live with me, join my End Your Year Strong Workshop — we’ll put everything in place together so you walk away with your full Q4 plan done. ⌚️Timestamps 0:00 – You can grow your business and enjoy your life at the same time 0:53 – Why balancing life and business in Q4 matters 1:53 – How quarterly planning creates clarity and calm 2:53 – How to make quarterly planning easier (and get support) 3:45 – What quarterly planning actually is (and how I teach it) 6:13 – Why quarterly planning works better than annual or monthly planning 8:00 – Common pitfalls people face without a quarterly plan 8:53 – Step 1: Setting your business priorities 11:27 – What your priorities could look like (examples) 13:25 – Things to consider when choosing priorities 14:56 – How your priorities anchor the rest of your plan 15:51 – Step 2: Capacity audit — aligning business with your real life 18:53 – What to include in your capacity audit (calendar, energy, boundaries) 21:19 – Step 3: Setting quarterly goals (revenue, foundational, growth, delivery) 24:13 – Guidelines for setting effective goals 25:04 – Step 4: Building your project & promotion map 26:59 – How mapping helps you stay realistic and on track 27:52 – Step 5: Choosing key metrics to measure success 29:37 – Example: how I’m tracking visibility this quarter 31:24 – How to choose the right metrics for your goals 32:15 – Common pitfalls with tracking 32:53 – Recap of the 5-step quarterly planning process 33:40 – Where to get step-by-step support building your plan 🙋🏾♀️ABOUT SCARLETT COCHRAN Hi, if we haven’t met before, I’m Scarlett—a banking and finance attorney turned author and entrepreneur.
