It's spooky season, Reader!

I've never been big on Halloween. My birthday lands a few days before, so I'm usually still eating cake. But this time of year does remind me of the other spooky stuff hiding in a business.

There are the subscriptions you're paying for and haven't opened since spring, and the ClickUp tasks that have been overdue for months or never had a due date. There are lead and client emails that still sound like you did two years ago, and a Dubsado account full of forms named "Proposal (copy) (copy)". And we don't need to talk about the inbox.

Q4 is the best time to deal with all of it. Once the holidays hit, nobody wants to be fixing a broken form or untangling a Zap while they're trying to log off.

So I'm dusting off my Q4 Biz Audit and cleaning house, and you can follow along.

It's a free checklist that walks you through blocking your holiday dates, planning a specific holiday sale, auditing your tech stack, tidying your project management tool, reading the automated emails your leads and clients receive, and deleting those duplicate forms.

Do it now and you'll thank yourself when you're signing off for the holidays without a worry in the world.
