PREPARE CLIENTS FOR DEPARTURE

Prepare your clients early, and make sure that they mark the departure date in their calendars. Make sure not to give more than a month's notice or your clients might stop sending your work early on. A month is the most notice you should give. It is also a good idea to send reminder emails to your clients before you leave and after you return.

LINE UP WORK

It is important to line up a few gigs for your return, or you might have an extended vacation. You will need invoices coming in to pay for your vacation, so plan ahead. Ask current clients if they will have any new projects coming in the week you get back. And schedule some of your current projects to be resumed on your return.

SCHEDULE WISELY

The week before your vacation will be very hectic. Try to manage your time wisely the month before your vacation so that all of your work doesn't need to be completed the day before departure.

WHAT TO TAKE WITH YOU

If you can't schedule a complete vacation, what should you take with you? Well, if you need to take some work with you then you will need to set some boundaries. Only work a few hours in the early morning or late evening. You should still vacation with your family in a normal fashion during the day. The entire purpose of your vacation was to relax and this is what you should do.
