Last Day for the Meet the Content Creators $5 Deal, and Small Daily Actions Make a Difference

Happy Monday!

If ever there was a day for the Monday blues, I think this one might qualify! It’s dreary and rainy here again, and I am already missing my summer sunshine! It feels like it’s time to get the Happy Light out for good and start using it every morning.

Since I decided not to let myself be overwhelmed this Q4, and to just stay focused on my goals and move ahead even if it’s just one step a day, in this week’s reads I want to talk about doing small daily marketing habits. Now, I’ll be the first to admit that this is easier said than done, and I think I’ve mentioned before that when I start to get overwhelmed, I completely shut down. That started to happen on the weekend, which was why I took off to the beach on Saturday afternoon instead of finishing the projects that were on my desk.

It worked too! Sunday I was able to get some work done and get a couple of things off my desk and I learned a new Photoshop skill doing it too. Of course, that left my mind going a mile a minute and I was awake at 4:00 a.m. this morning and creating products for my Etsy shop. I got 3 new printables done and will get them added to the shop later today.

At the moment, though, I have goodies to share with you and then I’m going to make some soup for lunch. It’s definitely a soup kind of day here today.

Today’s Read: Small Daily Actions Can Make a Difference

It’s often said that taking small daily actions is the way to experience success in anything you want to do. This is very true for many aspects of life, including your business. The actions that get results are consistent, directly affect your income, and provide value to your audience. Doing the right things each day pays off in more than one way.

Here are a few things to consider…

Don’t make things harder than they have to be.

Here’s a secret (it took me 20 years to learn this): making money is not complicated. Almost anyone can do it. But many of us – me included – make the whole process harder that it has to be. Even though it’s nice having awesome technology to help you get things done, it’s not required. The essence of making money online is simple: put up your buy buttons and tell people where to find them.

Money-making activities should always be first on your to-do list

Your business cannot exist if you don’t earn money. Therefore, make a list of activities you do in your business that can directly be credited with earning something. Making offers is the fastest way to make money. The first task I do for my business every day is write and send my newsletter. The later that gets done in a day, the more my day tends to get off track, but it’s the one thing I make sure I do every day.

Know your numbers

The other daily activity that is important to do is to keep up with your data. Make sure your calls to action are measurable, and make sure that you are keeping track of them. If you don’t track and measure, you’re only working on assumption, and that’s not going to work long term.

Marketing before product creation

You’ve probably heard this before too, but you should spend more time marketing than doing anything else in your business. You can outsource a lot of tasks to help you with your marketing, and that’s much easier than outsourcing your product creation. But this is one spot where us creative types tend to look the other way. It’s a whole lot easier to make the products than it is to tell people about them.

Finally, schedule everything

I wrote a lot about time management last week and this ties in with everything I said then. Schedule everything so that you know what needs to get done. To ensure that you do the things you need to do to grow your business and get smarter about marketing, it’s a good idea to use your calendar to schedule everything you are going to do. That way, when you go to work, you simply open your calendar and get started on those tasks. Consistency is the key to success, and when you turn your daily actions into habits, you really will start to notice a difference.
