Hi everyone, this is Liberty Phillips.
Welcome to this first weekly issue of Liberty’s Weekly Helper. Each week I look forward to providing you with valuable information that can improve your quality of life, save you time and maybe even get you feeling more organized than you’ve ever been! And now, for this week’s feature article: WORK SMARTER< NOT HARDER! Did you ever stop to consider that by wasting just 15 minutes a day, over the course of one year you’ll lose 5,475 minutes!? That comes to over 90 hours. Over two entire 40-hour weeks. Yikes! And just 15 minutes wasted per day. Whoda’ thunk? Probably the #2 cause of stress for small business owners (money is usually #1! 😉) is a feeling of always being “behind the curve”… of having a little too much to do (or maybe a lot!) and never quite finding the time to get it all done. Pretty soon your “to do” list has grown its own “to do” lists and things are getting a little out of control. Have you ever sat down and thought through those business activities that seem to rob you of the most time? Have you ever analyzed the costs of inefficiency and disorganization? When everything feels like a priority, small businesses tend to put marketing on the back shelf, when it should be on the front burner! Let’s say your small business nets $50 an hour after all costs are factored in. You’d love to grab some more customers, but you’re struggling to find the time to do some more marketing. SOLUTION! Reach out for a free consultation with Liberty Errand Service. We spend a FREE hour with you, helping you top think things through and offering suggestions. You decide to hire us at $30 per hour (TIP: big discounts for pre-paid packages!) to handle various in- and out-of-shop errands and chores, and you’re $20 ahead of the game! What can we do for your small business? Here (from our website) is just a partial list. ABOUT Liberty Errand Service is a family and small business errand and concierge service dedicated to caring, quality service at a price you can afford. Feeling stressed? Short on time? Too much to do? Call Liberty at (603) 696-4280.

Hi everyone, Liberty Phillips here.
I’m so excited to see our business taking off and I want to thank each of you who has provided us with referrals and testimonials from the bottom of my heart. Your kind words have been wonderful and much appreciated! When people visit the services pages on our website they’re often astounded at the long list of services, chores and tasks we can perform for busy families and small businesses. TIP: For a list of family services click here. For business services click here. For senior services click here. Over just the past few months we’ve driven clients to Logan Airport and back; checked in weekly on a lovely lady who needs a little help with activities of living; walked a very friendly dog; done grocery shopping for a very nice family; cleaned an entire medical office each week; cleaned several residences weekly and organized some garages and basements. People talk about the “45 second elevator pitch” that you’re supposed to have ready when someone new asks, “So what do you do?” I tell them: “We perform errands, and serve as a concierge for busy families and small businesses, saving them time and stress. We can do pretty much anything that you can do for yourself, except now you don’t have to!” If they’re interested for more, I say, “Imagine if an imaginary family member or employee suddenly materialized and was willing to tackle everything on your “to do” list. How much easier would that make your life? The only difference is, that we’re not imaginary!” PROBLEMS Scenario #1: Imagine that your home washing machine just broke, the kids’ dirty clothes are piling up, and you need to get it fixed, pronto! How are you going to arrange to meet the repair person when you work 40 hours a week (with a part-time job on the weekend), and they don’t do evening repairs? Scenario #2: You’ve been putting off servicing your car because you’ve been so busy. Now annual inspection is approaching and that dashboard warning light is still lit! How on earth are you going to find the time to take it to the repair shop or dealer, then wait for it… or have to come back and pick it up later? SOLUTIONS Call Liberty! We’ll come pick your car up right in your driveway or place of business, take it to the dealership, wait for it to be repaired (if expected to be fairly quick), or come back later and pick it up when it’s ready. Then we’ll drive it back to where we found it. And if there are any important repair details for you to know about, we’ll be sure to let you know. We can even schedule the repair appointment itself! Maybe you’d like us to take your car to be vacuumed and detailed and run through a brushless carwash? Or get the oil changed? We’ll take it to Valvoline (or your choice of service facility) and get it taken care of, no problem. HAPPINESS! Imagine how great it would feel to get nagging items like these off of your “to do” list? We love the work that we do because it always involves helping other people and making their lives a little better. What better way could there be to make a living! OK, thanks for reading, and I’ll be back again next week with some more tips and ideas on making your life or small business a little better, and lot more organized!

Are you particular about the companies you do business with? I sure am! I want to know that I’m forking over my hard-earned money to a service provider who cares about me as a person (…not just another account). I want a provider who is excellent at what they do, who offers reasonable pricing and who does a quality job... on time, and as promised! Are we on the same page here? INTRODUCING “LIBERTY’S LIST” At Liberty Errand Service we are experts at handling the huge list of available chores, tasks, errands and other services for families and small businesses that you can learn about here. But some services like accounting, tax preparation, landscaping and travel arrangements are best left to the experts. Then there are the licensed professionals in the community whom we have grown to love and trust. Anyone need a quality, caring naturopath? How about a quality, caring tax preparer? Ha! MAKING TAXES LESS TAXING Taxes are just another cost of doing business in America. Sure, the federal government depends on our “voluntary compliance,” but that doesn’t mean we need to volunteer a penny more than necessary! Tax avoidance simply means taking advantage of every possible deduction the law allows. Quite frankly, this is an area where many tax preparers are behind on the latest changes in the tax laws, or just plain lazy. The problem is that you pay for their laziness or lack of expertise. Another important point: ideally, you want the person who keeps the books and does the accounting for your family or small business to be the same person who does the taxes. This person needs to be totally familiar with your income, investments, assets, debts, retirement goals and more. That way they can maintain a wide-angle, top-to-bottom view on your entire financial world; to make the best recommendations and keep you paying as little as possible. (Or maybe you’d like to pay MORE? … lol) INTRODUCING JOE CONDI Joseph Condi has been operating J. Condi Accounting, Bookkeeping & Tax Service in Penacook, New Hampshire since 2010. Prior to that Joe was Senior Accountant at Yankee Publishing, publisher of world famous, Yankee Magazine. In addition to using Joe’s tax preparation services himself, my dad has referred numerous clients to Joe over the years and they can’t say enough good things about him. Joe is reliable, responsive, courteous and most important of all, he will help you take every possible deduction the law allows to keep your tax exposure as low as possible. Here is what a local wellness professional had to say after we recently referred them to Joe and they met on ZOOM for the first time: “Joe is great! Thank you. We had a fantastic meeting. I feel we’re in good hands. Much appreciate you facilitating that introduction.” BOTTOM LINE If your accountant or tax preparer isn’t quite doing it for you, give Joseph Condi a call at (603) 753-8322. Joe will be happy to schedule a complimentary ZOOM call to introduce himself, to explain his service offerings, and to see whether he might be able to make your situation a little less taxing! And be sure to tell him Liberty sent you! www.LibertyErrandService.com P.S. In case you know of anyone across America who needs a fresh look at their bookkeeping and tax preparation profile, Joe is a registered IRS tax preparer and can service taxpayers in all 50 states.

Hi, Liberty Phillips here.
Let’s talk babysitting. Does babysitting always involve babies? Not at all! At Liberty Errand Service we do all kinds of “babysitting.” We can watch children of any age, keep a close eye on things, take them out to play, prepare their meals and even clean up while you enjoy dinner out. We can “babysit” your cat, pooch, iguana or other family pet by stopping by (even twice a day) to provide them with some food, water and love. We can play with them, walk them (OK, maybe not the iguana) and make sure everything is OK. We can check in on the seniors in your life, provide a little conversation and companionship, and attend to their needs—even take them grocery shopping or to get their nails done. We can “babysit” your car while it’s getting repaired, then drive it back home for you. We can even “babysit” your furnace, your hot water heater, hot tub, Internet connection, roof or driveway while they’re getting repaired, then report back to you when all is well. So, as you can see, we do all kinds of babysitting. Sincerely, Liberty Phillips, Chief Errand Officer (CEO) www.LibertyErrandService.com ABOUT Liberty Errand Service is a family and small business errand and concierge service dedicated to caring, quality service at a price you can afford.
