Work for yourself first is a mindset that feels totally wrong.
Usually the advice is to concentrate on giving your customers the best product or service and success will surely follow.
However, in my consulting business I learnt a valuable lesson that may help you.
I found my consulting income fluctuating wildly simply because I was so focused on giving my current customers exceptional service that I did not give sufficient time or resources to marketing to find the next job.
It’s the same in internet marketing. If you are building a list, then the #1 task in growing your business is to grow your list and communicate with it by offering fresh value and offers that will grow your income.
Sometimes we get swept up in all the distractions of working online such as Facebook, our email inbox, surfing the internet etc
However, the smartest thing we can do is to set aside time at the start of the day to consistently market our business.
This means working on growing our business is the first and most important job before helping others to grow their business.
For internet marketers with a list, writing and sending a daily email to existing customers and prospects should be the first task of the day before we move on to other tasks.
Ideally, these ‘other tasks’ should be directly targeted at work to grow the list either through creating and selling new products or marketing the products or services that we have already created.
We all have 24 hours in any day, the difference between success and failure is in the art of allocating how that time is used.
Make sure that you set time aside at the start of the day to work on tasks that specifically grow your business before you move onto other work.
‘Work for yourself first’ may be a game-changer for you if you can consistently adopt this habit – register on The Sky Inside to get many more important tips on improving the mindset for success.
In internet marketing you often find yourself thinking about the next thing to do.
This is a transcript of an email that I received from one of the most productive internet marketers I know – Sean Mize.
This is how it starts…
I’m gonna share a concept I use in my business to get me more results, and I’ve used iterations of it for years, and it’s one of the key things to which I can attribute my aggressive production (whether it was 25,000 articles on ezine articles, testing ~ $30,000 of solo ads, or running well over 100 wsos) and I use it today to increase my productivity.
And that’s the “what’s the next thing I need to do?” principle.
It works like this:
I know what my yearly goal is, and I know what my next big goal is (they are sometimes the same, sometimes not)
So since I know my goal, and I know the current state of my business, I also know there are a number of things that need to be done to achieve that goal.
But that’s where I think most folks get derailed (is that where you get derailed)? So much to do, so you do . . . nothing on the path to getting where you want to go? I digress 🙂
But instead I ask the question, what is the NEXT thing I need to do to achieve my goal?
For example, if my goal is 100 subs a day, and I’m at 10, what is the NEXT thing I need to do? Is it create another traffic instance? Is it add a new squeeze page version into my testing rotation? Is it to write another article? Record another video? What is my NEXT thing that I need to do?
Here’s another example: if I am creating a 10 hour training program, and I need:
an outline
record for 10 hours
write a sales letter
write 5 sales emails
create a download page
put the routing into infusionsoft
That can be overwhelming and if I just put it on my “to do” list with everything else, everything else gets done, but nothing on this.
But what if I wake up everyday and just ask, what is the NEXT thing to do?
Day 1 I write the outline
Day 2 I record one of 10 hours
Day 3 I record one of 10 hours
…and so on.
In a finite period of time my task is done.
The problem is, when you look at it this way, you might think, but this will take so LONG.
Maybe 30 days.
But in reality, trying to do it all at once isn’t working for you, is it?
I doubt it (you do too, think back on the last month, did you accomplish what you set out to do?)
So . . . what is the NEXT thing you need to do to get to your goal?
