Look, as a creative running a business, you already have 1001 things to do. What you don’t need to be spending your time doing is re-writing the same thing 100 times when it’s not necessary. But we often do. We have to apply for something and find ourselves trying to come up with a bio that makes us sound amazing for the millionth time. Or we go away and have to slap together an out of office message that magically directs people to the right places at the last minute. Or we get an Instagram DM from someone asking a question that we’ve answered before but never saved so we’re typing it out letter by letter because we’re a lovely person.It’s tiring work but it has to be done, right?!Yes, but it can be done differently. Easily. More efficiently.
