766: Win the Hour, Win the Day to Escape the Grind of Time Management with Kris Ward

Kris Ward is an entrepreneur and marketing strategist with over 12 years of experience. She is the author of the book "Win the Hour, Win the Day," which focuses on time management and productivity strategies for business owners. Today, Kris shares her personal journey of transitioning from working 16-hour days to reducing her workload to just 6 hours, and how this shift allowed her to better support her husband during his battle with cancer.

Key takeaways include creating a “win team” to handle repetitive or administrative tasks, focusing on self-care to optimize productivity, and strategically using tools and systems to avoid feast-or-famine cycles. Ward also encourages small steps like screen capturing your workflow or creating short instructional videos to delegate work effectively, demonstrating that building efficiency doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. She highlights that your role as an entrepreneur is akin to a maestro directing an orchestra—guiding the team to produce impactful results without doing every task yourself.

Ward provides resources at win the hour, win the day and freegiftfromchris.com, including giveaways and strategies to help entrepreneurs implement these principles.
