You want more repeat customers and better loyalty

How to define your ideal customer (and why it matters)

Grab Control of Your Day with Charlise

26 Aug 2025 02:30PM

Stop Firefighting & Start Getting Things Done

If your to-do list never ends...
If your priorities keep getting pushed to “tomorrow”...
If your day feels like one long series of interruptions...

It’s time to grab control of your day.

This practical, hands-on workshop will help you shift out of firefighting mode and into focused, intentional action. You’ll learn how to prioritize what matters, use your time wisely, and finally feel like you’re in charge of your own schedule.

This class will help you if any of these sound familiar:

You’re busy all day but your most important work never gets done
You try to plan your time but get hi-jacked frequently
You’re not sure what you should do personally
You’ve tried time management techniques, but none of them stick
You’re frustrated, scattered, and constantly playing catch-up

You’ll leave with simple tools that make a real difference, including:

How to use the Eisenhower Matrix to stop reacting and start choosing
A time blocking method that works with your real life
A 10-minute task list that clears mental clutter and builds momentum
Ways to align your schedule with your natural energy patterns
A simple framework for deciding what to do yourself—and what to hand off
