Is Multitasking worth it ?!
I have been watching lots of videos on Youtube where creators keep mentioning about how multitasking can make a business fail. Have been watching such videos from multiple creators since past 3 years now. Whenever I come across those videos , I wonder what did I do that now my business didn’t get affected? I mean the creators of such videos must have seen some cons faced during multitasking
So now the question was, Did I manage the Multitasking well or was I lucky? In search of answers to my questions I found out that, It totally depends on how well you manage your multiple tasks on day to day basis.
In the fast-paced world of startups, wearing multiple hats isn’t just an option—it’s a necessity. I, as the founder of the company had to manage Business Meetings, Manage the team, Help the team by working as a team member, Follow up with the client for payments, sometimes irritate the client with sudden appearances at his site, because payments were delayed 🙁 . As we had started with a small team, me and my partner had to work personally on the projects. It was a great challenge, as inspite of having staff we did have to jump into projects and give solutions.
So the struggle was, how do we juggle between business development, meetings, social media marketing, and team management without dropping the ball?Oh so I forgot to mention I was also doing the Social Media Marketing for the company.
Well, Here are some tips to master multitasking:
Identifying what is Priority:
You have to be smart enough in identifying the high priority tasks and focus your energy accordingly. Not all tasks require your immediate attention
Grouping activities:
Batching and stacking activities that are similar in nature can help you focus on your tasks efficiently and reduce mental stress of switching to other work
Pass on Effectively:
Shedding some work to team members . This will give your team a sense of empowerment and is also crucial for your growth as a team
Technology & Tools:
Use tools and apps designed to automate and assist with social media marketing, scheduling, and project management. For example: Facebook’s Meta Business Business suite helps you plan and schedule posts, which can help achieve better reach as well as your goals can be reached
By embracing some or all of these strategies, you can transform the challenge of multitasking into an opportunity for growth and efficiency.
Hope this helps and motivates towards working for your goal
