Two Major Keys to Online Marketing

ONE

So yesterday I started following my new business action list. I created my list last week it was a bit of a long process but my logical and semi-OCD mind needs the structure to get me going so I don't spend all my time preparing to work. A person can only make money by doing actions!

Outline:

Goals - specific if you can not just "travel" or "make money" but go on a trip every 6 months and make $5,000/month extra.

Strategies - The general ways you plan to achieve your goals. Example: Build my affiliate marketing business and my MLM business online

Tactics - Specific ways developed from your strategies. Example: Use social networking, use e-mail lists, use PPC

Actions - These are very specific actions that you will list as your daily tasks to achieve your goals and listing a time for each action will help you. Example: check PPC ad campaigns (1-5min), make blog post (5-30min), phone leads generated (15-60min).

This should be only a page or two and you should update/review your document often so you can adapt to changing situations.

I like to keep my list right in front of me while I work on my business stuff like a check list. The faster I complete each action the more money I will make.

I also like to put a reward section at the end so I have something to look forward to!

TWO

Work your action list! No procrastinating. If you can't do it every day put it into your schedule where you can the point is constancy because the more you work your business the better chance of making money you will have.

I developed this list as part of my MasterMind group I started last year. I will talk more about MasterMind groups in tomorrows post!

Have a great day!
