It&#8217;s a prelude to building a bigger team all year long.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s some resistance to building a bigger team. If you are not sure what to start with, start with something super small. \u00a0You can delegate with supervision this way. \u00a0Or you can start with something you know you are not getting to. \u00a0If progress is made, that&#8217;s the bonus.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Retail elves<\/h3>\n<p>Services such as Shipt, Click, Target cartwheel and Amazon subscription are a start. \u00a0 You can connect online to order and your goods come directly to your home. \u00a0Subscription automates this process for goods that you rely on regularly. \u00a0Not only does this save time, it saves money!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Tech elves<\/h3>\n<p>Every day new technology is being created to help us. \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.southernliving.com\/news\/amazon-alexa-tips-and-tricks\">Amazon<\/a> Alexa and Google <a href=\"https:\/\/m.youtube.com\/watch?v=QMlQdkN10vA\">Home<\/a> have tons of tech tricks to help you day in and day out. Not only can Alexa play holiday music, she can also read &#8220;The Night Before Christmas&#8221;. \u00a0 She can organize your holiday lists and remind you before your holiday cookies get too crispy.\u00a0 Holiday cards are a special connection during the holiday season.\u00a0 Send out beautiful invitations and holiday cards using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paperlesspost.com\">PaperlessPost.\u00a0<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paperlesspost.com\">\u00a0Holiday tech can help you delegate and automate.\u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Community elves<\/h3>\n<p>Around us are people who have retired and want to do more, teens looking to earn money and freelancers. \u00a0A colleague posted an advertisement on Next Door and got 50 potential elves. \u00a0A retired tech guy talked to a friend of a friend and became a driver for a special needs family. \u00a0Mention to the universe the help you need and it&#8217;s going to show up.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Professional elves<\/h3>\n<p>That&#8217;s people like me! As your certifed professional organizer, I help people in many different ways depending on your needs, skills and goals. \u00a0Professional elves, like coaches, therapists, trainers and more help you achieve goals throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once you have your <a href=\"https:\/\/professional-organizer.com\/WordPress\/team-together-everyone-achieves-more\/\">team<\/a> in place, it&#8217;s important to keep communicating frequently. A weekly meeting, a text stream and a google doc can keep everyone up to date and on the same page. \u00a0Build a team for the holidays and going into the new year to help you accomplish more, feel more in control and keep all your plates spinning.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>More ideas for team building and managing your team <a href=\"https:\/\/professional-organizer.com\/WordPress\/?s=Team\">here<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; It&#8217;s the holidays that remind us of how much we need to have more help! \u00a0Just like Santa&#8217;s elves, and Mrs. Claus, there&#8217;s more to do than we have time to accomplish. \u00a0Look at what needs to be done and perhaps it&#8217;s time to build a team for the holidays. \u00a0Here&#8217;s some [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[97],"tags":[1806,1808,1809,1807],"class_list":["post-8499","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-productivity","tag-build-a-bigger-team","tag-holiday-help","tag-organized-holiday-season","tag-together-everyone-achievese-more"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>More Elves Please! - Ellen&#039;s Blog, Professional Organizing for Kingwood &amp; Houston<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"More elves please!
