Hey guys, it's Shannon. I am the social media manager for the Boutique Hub and today I am going to be showcasing and doing a complete overview of the brand spanking new boutique boss planner made exclusively for boutique owners by the Boutique Hub. And you guys, look at how gorgeous this planner is. I cannot be more excited to share it with you guys today. So let's get started. Okay guys, so we're going to jump into the interior of the planner. I am so excited to share it with you today and I cannot wait for you to see the inside of this. It is absolutely a game changer and this is going to be almost like your right hand man. Every day you should be inputting information into this and also taking away information from this as well. There is no guidebook to entrepreneurship or being a boutique boss. But the information included in here, the tracking, the numbers, everything that you would need, it is a wonderful, wonderful place to start. So let's jump in. Alright, so the first thing you're going to see here of course is where you can put your name and email ownership of the planner. And then this was absolutely my favorite part of this planner, you guys. It is something that I think everyone needs to print out this Boutique boss manifesto right here, get it printed, poster size and absolutely 100% hang it in your office, put it in your bedroom, your closet, wherever you can see it every single day in your bathroom and read it and take it to heart. And not only will this manifesto change your life, but it will help you change the lives of others. It is super powerful. It is amazing. If you read anything first, when you get your planner, read this. So there are two things that are truly, absolutely 100% unique and exclusive to this planner that makes it unlike any other planner you have ever used or seen. And they are a game changer for being a boutique owner. And that is the goals tab and the tracking tab. Those two tabs you will not find in any other planner and it is exclusive to ours and they are completely centered with things that you will need to track for your business. So right here in the very beginning of the planner is how to use this planner. It gives you a complete overview of what's included in the planner, where to get started, how, how to use the checklist, how to use the tracking sheets, and how to use the monthly calendar at a glance and the week by week schedule. I don't think I've ever used a calendar where it is completely laid out in that aspect. It is absolutely amazing to have this information right at your fingertips. Every single day. The first thing that is probably the most important aspect of this planner is to do a self assessment. Here we've included a list of questions to ask your and just jot it down so you can always refer back to them when you are assessing not only your business, but yourself as well. So now we enter into the goals tab. This is where this planner is unlike anything else. You have a roadmap and then here's where I am today and then next year I'll be here. You'll be able to fill out all these dots along the way, set goals, plan, plan and crush them. To be able to have this and access it and see it every day is important. It helps with your mindset and it furthers that relationship of where you want to be and how to get there. Then we have more questions over here and you can put in your total sales from last year and a goal for this year. Goals are important to have. If you don't have goals, what are you truly working towards? Then we go into goal setting. Here you'll be able to do your top three overall business goals as well as spiritual goals. To have these two in the same category, we have realized it is the most important to not only have business goals, but also personal goals as well. Then we move into our tracking tab. This is a game changer. I cannot emphasize how much this sheet right here, as simple as it is absolutely vital to running and managing your business. So here you'll see the months are listed. You're able to enter your inventory for 2016, 2017, 18 and 19. You can put your monthly inventory, your monthly sales and so forth. And you can compare whether they were higher or lower. And we have given you all the handy formulas on how to calculate that comparison right here inside the planner so you don't have to find that information anywhere else. It is all included for you. Then you can go over the monthly comparison inventory which is current right now. So you can start right here in July and you can do your beginning of month and end the month, your turn rate, did you over or under buy? And all of that handy information about what that stuff is, the formulas and how to calculate that is all right there you to be able to do so. And then we go into holiday planning. We've included a list of important holidays and some fun holidays along the way of course to help implement though into your marketing strategy for your business and to make sure that you never miss an important holiday. And then we roll into checklists. We have annual checklist, a quarterly Checklist for the simple fact that you know, you make sure you review and renew insurance policies. That is something that's so easy to to forget when you get wrapped up in the business world. So we tried to break it down on everything that you would need to take care of every year and every quarter. And then we have further breaking it down into the three month segment and what sales and promotions that you guys can do along the way to help boost those sales. What makes this planner so unique is that we've had some amazing, amazing sponsors, sponsors that helped us pull this off and without them this planner would not be possible. So on every month you will see our sponsor and their tips. As you can see they did seven tips on why apps are useful in retail today and what they can do for boutiques. And all that information is right there. So you can see for July. Then we have August and September and so forth. And all of our wonderful sponsors are featured there and what they bring to the table and their tips for you guys as boutique owners. So when you jump into a month you'll see the sponsor page first and then you'll see your month at a glance. When I use the planner, this is definitely where I live. This is my world. I love looking at a month at a glance. I like seeing you know what's coming up, how many days do I have until our next event when the holidays are and then we go into July, the beginning of the month. These are helpful tips that will get you started at beginning of each month and then you can also jot down your inventory intake and your goals. Then you will come over here and you will write your social media strategy, your post ideas, your graphics events to host. All of that wonderful information you can jot here. You can also write your goals and you can write how many Facebook likes you have currently and how much would like for those to grow by putting your goals this part here and also a place to write notes. Of course this is the perfect place when you start each month to come to this page here and get started fresh, motivated and encouraged to start your business off on the right track each month. Then we jump into the monthly daily sales. This is absolutely one of my favorite parts of the planner here you are able to enter in every single day your sales, your cash deposit, your check deposit, credit card deposits, other, your total deposit and then notes about the day. Was it rainy? Was it a beautiful day, lots of foot traffic. Weekend special event downtown hosted a pop up. You can write all of those notes about each day of the month. And how it affected your total daily sales. You can also jot down your payroll goal, your sales goal and your turn goal. We've included all of those super helpful retail equations down here at the bottom to help you figure out all of that wonderful stuff out. Then you jump into your weekly layouts. So here we have. And every first Monday we do a checklist. So make sure you do your first Monday checklist. New arrivals to promote personal things to remember this month and etc. This is like I said, you should start each month with a fresh overview of your business and getting ready to tackle the new month as a whole. So as you go through the weekly thing, we also have included like Monday goals and quotes from our favorite entrepreneurs and business owners and celebrities. And then we also have weekend goals. And then you can also do your reflections on the Friday or the weekend. The layout of this is beautiful. We made sure to give you enough room to be able to write and to take notes. And then the same goes for each month. Then at the very end of the month you will see the monthly reflections. Here you are able to jot down, you know, what did I do well this month? What am I most grateful for? What can we improve on for next month, remember for next year and etc. Then you can write down here, you know, did I reach my goals this month? Did I reach my sales goals? Did I reach my personal goals? What can I do to improve those things for the next month? And here once again we have a wonderful sponsor page with their tips. And then we're right back at it. One of the special things about this planner that we have included when markets are so you will see here in August we have the Atlanta World of prom, which is August 5th through 9th. So we've kind of highlighted that for you. So. So you will be able to go and look through the months and see when certain markets are held throughout the year, which is super helpful for a boutique owner. So each month you will continue to go by that using those same tools. And then we also get down here where you can do at the end of your quarterly, you can do your checklist and your fourth quarter checklist as well. You know, October, November, December. These are tips to help you get through the holiday season and plan, plan and prep to stay ahead. Then we will go through the rest of the year. And then when the year is all said and done, we have this wonderful end of year review where you are able to go over everything that you would like to go over for the end of the year. You can take a minute and highlight the best moments of the past year and truly show what you're grateful for. And definitely keep your planner and you'll be able to have all of your information in one where you'll be able to roll the next year and have this planner to reflect upon. Also, we've included a page to take some notes and all of our wonderful partners as well who helped bring this amazing planner to life. So that is it. That was my overview of the brand spanking new Boutique Boss Planner made exclusively by the Boutique Hub.
