It has been weeks since many people made New Year’s resolutions, but it is always a good time to plan for your future. I don’t make resolutions, but i do plan ahead at least 3 to 6 months for what i will do in my business.
What are you doing today that will bring you some revenue in the next 90 days? You must plant the seeds if anything is going to grow.
So far this morning I have written and submitted one article, spent 15 minutes on Twitter, and sent out an email to my list. In another 10 minutes I will have completed this blog post. In effect, I have marketed myself and my business at least four times in just under two hours, while caring for my animals, preparing breakfast, and sending a fax during this same period of time.
Did you receive an email from anyone about something you can promote? Last night I received one from Christina Hills about her upcoming website creation program. I am an ongoing student in this program (you can return again at no additional charge) as well as an affiliate. Find a program you can promote and write a post, send an email, or tweet about it.
The very best way to ensure that you will continue to make money online is to create your own product or service. If you look at my ‘Courses’ page here on this blog, you will find that I have ongoing home study courses, as well as upcoming programs and courses. This makes it possible for me to teach what I am passionate about while still making a good living. You can do the same. Let me know what you are doing today to build your online business 90 days from today.

I like the idea of planning 3 & 6 months out. It keeps you a little more accountable than the year thing.
As for all the daily things you have already done this morning, how do you keep track of all of it. Do you make a daily list of what you want to accomplish?

Connie-
You are just what I needed this morning! Your detailing the little “bites” of time that you took to get so much done helps me immensely. (I tend to go into perfectionist overload and see things as all or nothing. FlyLady.net is helping so much with that too–she says you can do anything 15 min. at a time.)
Keep on sharing the little nitty-gritty details, please–I need to hear them!

I have my business plan set for 2009 and am moving forward. One thing I have heard you say in tele-seminars and in your blog post is to use time wisely. I have set up a daily schedule, especially for social networking as I can really spend a lot of time there and then the say slips away.
Your articles and tele-seminars always teach me something.

I love your line – everyday is a Saturday! What a great feeling huh? Thanks for all your kind advice.

Connie,,,is the program that I was enrolled in (7 wk program) during the Fall avail for sale thru an affiliate program. I am starting to reap some of the benefits of the program and would like to start co-marketing it with you.

Hi Connie, although I agree with you, I did make some New Years resolutions that I plan on keeping and that will put me in a LOT better financial position that where I am now.
Love your work, and love the site 🙂
Suzanne McPherson says
I would love to know where my business will be in 90 days! I’m sticking with you, Connie!

Aloha,
I have formed the network site above and signed up for Alex Mendosons Teleseminar tool. Is there something I can do with you to ensure I will move forward with my ideas. I need support in formulating a weekly plan – everything else is sitting waiting to happen. I want to ensure it will.
Many thanks,
Margit – the chick from the Jungle in Maui

I always enjoy your posts, Connie. Thanks for making us take the time to THINK!
In 90 days I’m going to have my Charge What You Deserve Inner Circle up and running with a target of between 50-100 members. I want to increase membership consistently each month by offering a 45-day free trial while promoting my information products.
Looking forward to our call tomorrow.
Cheers
Tom

Hi Connie,
i loved your ebook writing class but if you remember I didn’t have the technology in place to move forward. Since then I’ve created a blog and written articles, perfected my website by learning HTML. I am in the process of writing a book on how to stop procrastination. I’m offering a class on clearing writing blocks using Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)..
I kept all your classes so that when I have my book ready I’ll be able to do the other things that you taught us to get it out on line.
Thanks again for the great information and the caring you put into your classes.
I love the idea of having a word for the new year.
My word for 2009 is “empowerment”.
It’s been a very empowered year so far.
😉

Hi Connie and All,
I just had to smile as I read everyone’s forward-thinking comments.
With you at the helm, Connie, all of your fellow entrepreneurs are getting a good grasp of what to do to get where we want to be.
And, that’s a very good thing!

Hi Connie
I’m learning how to create campaigns around the affiliate programs I’m going to promote. In 90 days I intend to have the process streamlined so that I can write at least one article , blogpost and create a squidoo lens everyday. I love how you are so deliberate with your time. When I grow up I want to do it just like you. And get those results too!
