Forcing Functions & Accountability Quarterly

Time to Trim Expenses

Every quarter, review the last three months of expenses and cut anything you can. Subscription creep never gets a chance to stack up.

The email
Subject
Time to trim expenses
Body
Take a look at your business expenses for the past 3 months… and remove any recurring expenses that you can. Stay lean! If you do this every quarter, expenses can't stack up.

Why it works

Subscriptions and small recurring costs creep in silently; a scheduled quarterly nudge is the only thing that reliably catches them. The email even carries its own justification — "if you do this every quarter…" — so future-you doesn't argue with the reminder.

Make it yours

Point it at wherever your spending lives (your accounting tool, your card statement) and add a target, e.g. "cancel at least one thing."
