September's Spoonful of Strategy 🥄
Brigid Reale, Lynn Norris
A Tiny Taste of Tactical Genius
Hey Busy VO Pro,
You pour a lot into your business - but when’s the last time you made sure you got paid?
This month’s Spoonful is a simple shift that helps creative solopreneurs stop living invoice to invoice - and start building real stability.
🪙 Your Strategy:
Use the Profit First Lite approach.
It's a simple system to help you:
-
Separate your income into a few buckets
-
Allocate small percentages every time money comes in
-
Pay yourself first—even if it's just 5%
Start with 3 accounts:
-
Income (where payments land)
-
Taxes (move 20–30% as it comes in)
-
Owner Pay (yes, that’s YOU)
Bonus bucket if you want to get fancy: Profit (even 1% adds up over time!)
💡 You can set up free checking accounts through most online banks.
Even if you're starting with tiny amounts, the habit matters more than the number.
🫙 Why It Works:
This creates intentionality around your money.
It turns income into a plan - not just a paycheck.
✨ Coming Next Month:
Q4 is upon us. Let's not only end the year strong, but also be ready for the new year, calm and organized.
