Do you own your calendar? Or does someone else own it?
What owning your own calendar means is that you’re in control of your time. We’ve been flipping full-time for eight years now, and we are totally in charge of our schedules, which is amazing.
I’ve always been a flipper, but we went full time when my job stopped offering health insurance. At the time, I was flipping and health insurance was the only reason I had kept my regular day job so we made the decision to go into flipping full time. We came to the realization of do we want to take control of our time? With three young children, flipping allowed us to work when we wanted so we could spend time with our kids.
There Is A Growth Period
It takes time to build your business to the point where you’re able to own your calendar. If you’re new to flipping, you might have to work it around another job. But as you get better at flipping and building processes, you will be able to build your calendar to fit you.
Fast forward into what we’re able to do today. We spend time with our kids, go on field trips with them, and take every birthday off school to have a fun day. For us, managing our calendar and time means being able to work smarter so we have more time to spend with our kids. That’s why we like low volume, high profit flipping.
I could have gone really heavy in volume and sold a lot of items, but that means more work and less control of my calendar. I noticed I can sell one item and make just as much as I can selling a hundred low profit items.
Work Toward Calendar Freedom
If you want to be in control of your calendar, set your business goals. Be consistent and work toward them. Start the foundation today. Set up your eBay account and start listing on Facebook Marketplace. Do whatever you have to do to start getting to that point of time freedom where you run your calendar and you decide what you want to do that day. We love the flexibility of this business. We can work super hard and list stuff one month, knowing it’ll pay off next month.
Even if you do have a regular job right now, you, and you say you can only commit four hours on a Saturday to the business, that’s great. You can make a big headway in four hours on a Saturday to get going with this business. Find those pockets in your day now and invest them toward building your flipping business so you can take control of your calendar in the future.
