5 Hacks for Creating Your Dream Garden

5 Hacks for Creating Your Dream Garden Does your garden look as gorgeous as the ones you see all over Pinterest? No? Well, in that case, you’re probably looking for some hacks to transform yours. The good news is that you don’t need to hire a landscaper to help give you the outdoor space you want. Instead, there are handful of things you can do in your backyard all on your own so that it looks good enough to rival any you see online! Here are a five ideas to get you started… Get your soil ready  It’s not the most glamorous job, that’s for sure, but looking after your soil is the only way you’re going to get a dream garden. Whether you choose to do something called ‘tilling’ or adding something called ‘mulch’, or simply just want to mow the lawn and add some fertilizer, giving your soil a little TLC will make your whole yard look nicer overall. You’ll find that better soil produces better flowers, trees and shrubs, as well as a much greener lawn. Here’s how to improve your soil if it’s something you want to learn more about. Choose beautiful new flowers  Few dream gardens are devoid of flowers, so head to your local nursery to pick up some beautiful new blooms. It’s totally up to you to choose whatever you like (after all, it’s your dream garden), but make sure you ask the assistants to tell you about the kind of work required to tend to the plants, as well as the fertilizers, insecticides or natural-methods you can use to promote healthy growth.   Opt for a variety of colors, and be sure to plant your blooms at different heights to create a garden with plenty of depth and texture. Additionally, you can choose to buy flower bulbs online instead of planting flowers that are already in bloom. Automate your gardening There’s no shame in admitting that gardening takes more time and effort than you really want to give. So, why not make life easier on yourself by automating some of the tasks you need to do? You can calibrate a set of sprinklers so that you’re watering your lawn in exactly the right way or you could even build yourself (or have someone build you) a drip irrigation system. Pay for someone to mow your lawn if you know you’re not going to get out and do it often enough yourself, or buy a robotic mower if you don’t mind splashing the cash! Here are some other hi-tech ways to automate your gardening. Got a pool? Pay attention to the edges  If you’re lucky enough to have a pool in your outdoor space, you’re already a long way towards having a dream garden. But, it won’t be quite right if you haven’t thought about the pavers around your pool. They should fit in well with the rest of your patio, look elegant and feel great underfoot. Invest a little money in some high quality interlocking paving stones for your pool deck â€" not only will it increase the market value of property, but the non-slip surface will make it much safer for you and your family to use your dream garden when you’re getting in and out of (and walking around) the pool. Create a relaxing entertaining space  Finally, does your dream garden look like somewhere you can entertain family and friends, host a party or curl up with a glass of wine on a sunny evening? If so, you’ll need to invest in some good patio furniture so that you can recline in comfort. Buy a good quality table and a set of patio chairs so you can enjoy dinner outside. If you have space, also create a separate area for reading a book or lounging in the sun… you’ll get far more use of your garden this way, and really enjoy every inch of it too!    If your dream garden still sounds like a fantasy, maybe you can start with a dream  herb garden in your kitchen. Its a lot easier, and still adds feng shui to your home! Those are just five hacks for creating your dream garden. Here are a few more DIYs you can do in your garden if five just isn’t enough for you!

How to Avoid a Slump in Sales This Holiday Season

How to Avoid a Slump in Sales This Holiday Season Christmas comes but once a year and for most recruiters than can be a relief. A nice long week or two off and let’s face it, most of the “professional services” world also switches its phone off for the festive period in its entirety. However, this jolly and jovial time of year can have a major impact on revenue generation, certainly for December. Plenty of employers will defer start dates to Jan (hopefully a bonanza month for all perm recruiters!) once November has passed as few prefer to start people in the month of December. How can recruiters take advantage of this 4-6 week period to ensure that their tenacity and efforts are rewarded yet whilst respecting the wishes of their clients. And more importantly, how can you ensure you fill Jan with plenty of pipeline for success? Make hay (or should that be straw from the manger?) By the time you read this blog, you may already be mentally on the countdown to Xmas. But stop! You still have enough time to think about which candidates you can place even before Santa dusts off his sleigh- non workers, those on shorter notice periods: be brazen with your clients. Those who can start before Xmas can have an advantage in knowing their role, introducing them to clients, getting them to research over the holidays. Plan ahead NOW Where are you going to get your business from in January? Plan your calls and visits now- book up your January calendar with client meetins f2f. It gives you a plan of action and means you are one step ahead of your competition for the New year who may struggle to get time in the clients diary if they leave that call til Jan! Write your business plan for the year ahead- career goals, developmental needs: book in that appraisal with your boss. Set yourself stretching and achievable targets. These can always be reviewed after you return from your Xmas break. Tickle it along at twixmas Should activity need to occur during the Xmas break and both parties are happy for this to happen, encourage them to do so during the Twixmas period as this can often mean that both are raring to crack on once everyone is “back properly”. This could mean the difference between creating quick revenue for Jan and just letting is dwindle away. Push right to the end for decisions and get all paperwork completed, signed and returned before Xmas post (problems) ensue! Spread the joy of Christmas present December is the perfect time to get out and see your clients! Deliver your Christmas cards, drop off whisky and the like to your top customers. Show them that their business means more than just you sending an invoice. The human factor is prominent during the most festive of all the months, so drop your guard and show your fun side. But be professional at all times. Refrain from joining the “Ah it all goes dead” and maintain the mantra that meetings can take place, it is much easier for candidates to get our for longer lunches or book time off (Xmas shopping/clients drinks etc) so maintain full steam ahead until Xmas Eve! And finally, don’t beat yourself up. If you follow all the above advice, it should set you up for a productive few weeks as we head into the most fun time of year on the calendar and more importantly, ensure you return in Jan with strong activity. Wishing you all a wonderful pre festive season and remember to enjoy yourselves along the way!
