The Batching Worksheet to Help You Get More Done
Make the most of your time.
Batching is a system of grouping similar tasks together to help you stay focused on one thing at a time. It also helps reduce the time we waste switching back and forth between different activities.
It takes a little bit of organizing and planning upfront, but the end result yields greater productivity and efficiency in your workweek and a more streamlined business (for those of you who are self-employed and managing everything yourself).
This printable includes a batching worksheet and weekly time-blocking template to help you be more productive, especially when managing multiple projects.
In this 7-page download, you’ll find:
Two ready-to-use worksheets to help you manage your time as a busy music freelancer or self-employed musician.

Hi, we’re Ashley & Steve Danyew
Founders of Musician & Company, a business blog and education resource for self-employed musicians and music entrepreneurs.
We’ve seen too many classical musicians struggle to manage their music careers: saying yes to every new gig and job opportunity and being so busy, they don’t have time for anything else.
We saw an opportunity to do things differently.
So we studied everything we could about entrepreneurship and portfolio careers, researched and documented what we were learning in our businesses, and developed a practical model for building a portfolio career in music that’s diversified, profitable, and made to last.
Now, after 13 years of building our own businesses to the point of full-time self-employment work and curating our portfolio careers to include only our best and favorite work, we’re sharing what we’ve learned and giving you the tools and resources you need to build a profitable, sustainable business and music career.
What musicians are saying:
“Thank you for all your wonderful resources!”
