 Posted: January 12, 2008, 12:03 am Post subject: Biz Aspirations for 2008 |
 |
|
I wrote these down at My WAHM Space, but finally remembered that one of my goals was to stay on top of my goals this year! So I'm going to be accountable here as well!
Hard to get specific until I get the general goals down. So this is what I'm starting with here - and then I'm sure as time goes on I'll get more specific.
* $$ Aspirations are still hard for me to figure - my online income at this point is sporadic - and that's one thing I want to change - get it to be more consistent. Take advantage of the different income streams I have started working on, and get that drip trickling into a stream! GOAL:$1000/ mo by the end of the year - with all streams combined that is realistic.
* Mom's Online Retreat - I think I'm moving from the castle into a mountain lodge or a cottage. LOL! I plan a restructuring of the site, keeping the "Retreat Areas", but doing away with one area "The Towers" which is all blog feeds - putting each feed on it's respective Retreat Area homepage (That only makes sense to me I'm sure!) will get more niche related content to those main pages.
* ScrappinWAHM - Get the site further up to date with product launch, and added content about the online scrapbooking service & content. Add pages as to the various ways we can build a scrapbooking business with TLC.
* TLC - gotta fire up my team! I've gone back to the Team Blog and am using that to update Team members. Oh-and there is a Carribean Cruise Incentive that my hubby has already promised to take care of the kids during if I qualify! Still need a more solid game plan for that (only 6 months to qualify!)
* SOC - These goals are on hold until I get a better understanding of the most recent policy changes, as they may effect my biz plan here.
As far as continuing my "online education"...
* I want to learn more about using PLR articles and such to beef up the content in my blogs and websites.
* I want to improve my writing skills where article writing is concerned as well.
* I plan on being more active in my Affiliate marketing & article marketing efforts.
There I think that's a good start - I'm sure there is a lot more, but this one is long enough.  I'll update as I go along.

Great goals and aspirations girls! Don't forget to break them down into more attainable goals and come up with a plan. That's where I'm at right now in my goals. I'm setting up a plan and a schedule for myself.
Good luck and be sure to keep us updated. If you'd like, you can even share the smaller goals and your plans. There's nothing better than being held accountable
Take care,
Anita

-->UPDATE: The Towers are gone, and I've gotten rid of the Castle. I've started to put images up at the site to give it the log homey feel - LOL! The photos I've got will define each of the spaces too - take a look at the Galley - http://www.momsonlineretreat.com/galley.html . The 6 cell table underneath is kind of what I was thinking could be the navigational center for each area.
* ScrappinWAHM - Get the site further up to date with product launch, and added content about the online scrapbooking service & content. Add pages as to the various ways we can build a scrapbooking business with TLC.
-->UPDATE: I've updated the site (that is until Feb. 1st when I'll need to do it again) It's currently got the Valentines promos up and I'll just need to keep the homepage up to date with the new stuff as it comes out.
* TLC - gotta fire up my team! I've gone back to the Team Blog and am using that to update Team members. Oh-and there is a Carribean Cruise Incentive that my hubby has already promised to take care of the kids during if I qualify! Still need a more solid game plan for that (only 6 months to qualify!)
-->Why is it now that everytime we see a cruise accident hubby turns to me and says "And you want to go on a cruise??" 
* SOC - These goals are on hold until I get a better understanding of the most recent policy changes, as they may effect my biz plan here.
As far as continuing my "online education"...

* I want to improve my writing skills where article writing is concerned as well.
* I plan on being more active in my Affiliate marketing & article marketing efforts.
-->UPDATE: Getting ready to launch some new AM campaigns - I've joined one program geared towards Moms w/ some WAHM stuff mixed in and this will be good for both MomsOnlineRetreat as well as MWS and MyWAHMBlog content!
There I think that's a good start - I'm sure there is a lot more, but this one is long enough. I'll update as I go along. |

I have several:
Pay off my one CC...and I am halfway there already.
Take our 5 scheduled vacations and do so on time!
Stay out of the hospital.
Make TW director by the end of the year.
Increase my team size by 50% over last years size.
Increase my customer base by atleast 30%.
Work harder and smarter then last year and to be more organized.
Finish working on 2 of my articles by mid year.
Revamp my office space.
My goal is to have $20,000 in savings before Jan. 1, 2009 so I can have a bigger downpayment on a new condo we want at the Jersey Shore.

Wonderful! We'll stay healthy together this year! Honey I so feel for you. I know you've been in the hospital way more than me and I really hate it. I can only imagine how you feel.
But, let's talk about the good stuff like ...

Instead of lying in the hospital ... we'll be lying on the beach!
Take care,
Anita
