One Week Marketing Action Plan 02/18/2010
An Internet Marketing plan is probably your number one key to either succeeding or failing with Internet Marketing. With no plan it will be very hard to succeed online. With a bad plan you will most certainly fail with your online business. But with a solid plan you will almost certainly succeed. Here is how to develop a winning Internet Marketing plan. The first thing you need to do to develop a winning Internet Marketing plan is to set goals. Goals should be the frame of your plan. So, you will first want to set a long term goal. This goal is what you want to reach in about a year or maybe even a few years. Then you need to think about smaller goals you'll need to reach in order to reach your ultimate goal. For example, your ultimate goal might be to make $10,000 a week. You might decide you want to accomplish that goal in three years. So, what other goals will you have to accomplish to get there? Well, you might decide you want to run a membership site. You want 1000 members to pay you $10 a month to belong to the membership site. That will make you your $10,000 a month. So, you will then set the smaller goal to have 200 members by the end of the first year and then 500 members by the end of the second year. Then you will set another goal such as getting your membership site up and running within a month. Once you have a smaller goal then you can actually sit down and write a plan. You will want to be as detailed as possible. The plan should include what you need to do each and every day. If possible, it should even include what you need to do each and every hour. This will help give you direction. When developing a winning Internet Marketing plan you can do it a couple weeks at a time, just one week at a time, or a few days at a time. But make sure you plan carefully and make sure you're willing to change your plans as you go too. If you decide you need to tweak something or even completely overhaul it then you certainly need do just that. One of the biggest mistakes people make when writing their Internet Marketing plan is that they don't include enough details. So make sure you are very detailed with your plans. Set-up exactly what you need to do each and every day and include all the steps you will need to take to get there. Sometimes it helps to make things clearer when you use “reverse engineering” in your process of achieving your goal. For example, I know I want to make $30,000 per month, so that means I have to generate $1,000 per day, $41.66 an hour, or .69 per minute every day, every hour and every minute. If my product sells for $500 then I need to sell at least two per day. If I write an article and submit it and I get 10 sales a week, then I know that I have to make sure I have at least six articles submitted driving the same traffic to my site to make those sales each week. With the example we used above with membership sites, you might need to set-up a couple social networking sites in support of your membership site. So, your plan for one day might be to set-up a Squidoo account and then a FaceBook account. Then you might write that you will set-up the Squidoo account in the morning and then go on to include the specifics for what you will create on each page of the Squidoo account. That's how to develop a winning Internet Marketing plan. In order to be successful with Internet Marketing, you certainly need a plan. You actually need a detailed plan that will directly lead you to online success. To do this make sure you follow the advice outlined above.

Positive thinking is a trait that, if everyone had it in their lives, the world would be a much better place to live. Some people would tend to disagree with this theory saying that the positive thinkers are just lying to themselves and they don't have a grip on reality. The truth is that being a positive person can benefit you in many ways; from gaining new friends to living years longer and to thriving in your business. Here are a few thoughts on learning how you can change your thinking and become one of the positive people. Positive Attitudes Can Lead to Better Health and Longer Life The subject of having a positive attitude and how it relates to our health and longevity seems to be a popular research topic. Researchers from the American Psychosomatic Society recently provided the results from a study of 100,000 women during an eight-year period which showed the more hopeful, positive women were 14% less likely to die from any cause and 30% less likely to have died from heart disease. In this same study, the more cynical, negative women, who were highly distrusted anyone were 16% more likely to die than their positive counterparts. They were also 23% more likely to die of cancer. Another study conducted by the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine found that a positive mindset, characterized by being happy, lively, and calm, was associated with resistance to the common cold. Michigan State University reported the results from a study on cancer patients which showed the more positive patients required less pain medication and were more pain tolerant. Various other studies conducted around the country have concluded that a positive or optimistic attitude seems to play a protective role in our overall health. It can boost our immune system, keep the blood pressure low, fight depression, and even speeds the healing process after injury or illness. Grow Old Gracefully with Positive Thinking What is your perception of growing older? Do you fret about the numbers, focus on the esthetic effects of aging that show in your face, hair, body? It's normal to be concerned with our appearance and try to slow the signs of aging, but obsessing about it can actually shorten your life span. Those that accept growing older as a natural part of life and embrace their maturity have been shown to live 7.5 years longer than their pessimistic counterparts. Attract More Friends For the positive people reading this, I probably don't have to point out that negative people tend to have fewer close friends. After all, who wants to be around the "Negative Nellies?" All of us affect each other through thoughts and feelings. Negative thoughts, words and attitudes bring up negative and unhappy moods and cause adverse reactions in others. People are more likely to help those who are positive. Being positive, happy, uplifting and supportive will draw more people to you and encourage long-term, close relationships. We have all heard that the "squeaky wheel gets the grease" and it took me a long time to really understand that. The ones always whining and complaining are usually getting the attention from the positive person because they are always wanting to help, but those squeakers can really take down the spirit of the positive person. Don't let the squeakers drain you. Positive Thinking Takes Practice Even if you have been a pessimistic, negative thinker for many years, it's not too late to change your way of thinking and reap the benefits of a positive attitude. Your pessimistic way of thinking is a habit and habits can be broken. You can take control of your thoughts...and not let your thoughts control you. When you catch yourself thinking a pessimistic thought about an event or person, stop and evaluate those thoughts. Is your thought a fact or is it based on fear, jealousy, envy or some other negative feeling or perception? Think before you speak. WOW, that can be so hard sometimes especially when the grind of our daily stress eats away at us a bit. Try to catch yourself before the words come blurting out and evaluate the thoughts that lead to what you are about to say. Are your thoughts based on fact or are they just your personal reaction to that person or to what is going on around you? Teach yourself to come up with alternate explanations and future outcomes for all situations. Instead of expecting the worst and living in a world of gloom and doom, force yourself to see each situation in a more positive light. If your car starts making a funny noise, don't expect it to lead to hundreds of dollars in repair bills. Tell yourself that it may just be a minor expense and a warning to take care of something now before it turns into something bigger. Learn not to take things so personally. Don't jump to conclusions and assume that your friend didn't return your call because she doesn't like you. This type of negative thinking will only cause you unnecessary stress and worry. Instead, assume she is just busy and hasn't had time to call. Or maybe there is something going on in her life that you need to be understanding of...and you need to offer support and positive encouragement for. When you focus on helping others, your problems just do not seem as big; giving you the ability to stay happy and positive and shine your light on others that need their day brightened. Take time out each day to become aware of all the good in your life. Focusing on your own problems will only increase negativity. Make a list of at least five good things that happened to you each day. It may be hard to do at first, but you will eventually teach yourself to see the good in all things. Practice positive thinking and you will find that it starts to come naturally. You not only will be amazed on how much better you feel, but your list of acquaintances, friends and business associates will continue to grow. Soon you, too, will see the glass half full and will always be looking for the rainbow even during the storm...like me. CELEBRATE FOR LESS! 02/03/2010
With Valentine's Day approaching quickly, I hope you have all made your reservations to shower that special someone with love. Although we all want to be able to give that person the very best, it is always nice to save a few bucks in order to spend it on something else. You might want to check out the following link and see if you can find a restaurant in your area. Now I am not sure the restaurants accept the gift certicates on the OFFICIAL Valentine's Day, so you will need to read the fine print or call the restaurant, but there are plenty other days of the year that are worthy of a night out on the town. |
