November's Spoonful of Strategy 🥄

Brigid Reale, Lynn Norris November 03, 2026

A Tiny Taste of Tactical Genius

Hey Busy VO Pro,

No one loves taxes - but you can love how prepared you feel.

This month’s Spoonful is all about getting ahead, while there’s still time to make smart money moves before the year wraps.


🧾 Your Strategy:

Start your year-end tax prep in November, not March.

Here’s how:

  • ✅ Review your income (what came in, what’s still outstanding)

  • 📁 Organize your receipts and categorize common write-offs:

    • Coaching & classes

    • Subscriptions (Canva, Trello, Apollo.io)

    • Studio equipment

    • Home office expenses

    • Mileage or travel

  • 💸 If you’re not already saving for taxes, start moving 25–30% of income to a separate account now.

Pro tip: Ask your VA to create a simple running list of expenses + categories you can hand off to your CPA later.


🫙 Why It Works:
You avoid the April panic, feel more in control, and you might even spot a last-minute deduction opportunity.

✨ Coming Next Month:

When did setting goals for the new year become a stress-filled activity filled with "shoulds" and "resolutions"? We've got a tip to make planning your next year exciting again. And easy.
