Focus and Action for Online Entrepreneurs
creating growth and momentum for online entrepreneurs
Recently in the Focus and Action Mastermind Group (yes, you can still join!) we were talking about where you come up with ideas for blog posts. It seems the idea of writing daily has got people a little overwhelmed and in some cases... stuck. That's no good... because ideas are everywhere! Here's some of my favorite ways to come up with ideas for blog posts. 1. Comments from my site. People often make comments that I could write a whole post on ~ so I do! 2. … [Read more...]
Here is it Wednesday night well after 7pm 8pm and I'm just now getting my post up on my blog. That's because today is a big day in JackieLand. Today is the day that a goal I set in January has come to fruition. Today is my first podcast! I spent the day creating my intro and outro music (with Hanna's help of course), downloading and installing the plugin that will allow you to listen to the podcast ~ as well as distribute it to itunes for me. AND most of all it's the day that I got up the … [Read more...]
As you may have seen in my last post I set a 72 Hour Product Creation Challenge for myself (and you!) to get on it and create a product in 72 hours. I did it! I have to say that Dave's free report on Creating a product in 3 days TOTALLY helped me. I had a plan ~ I always have a plan, and as most days in my life the plan went to shit. I had this idea. I'd make a series of videos to outline the Squidoo Christmas Cash Blueprint. I planned to bundle them in a zip file so people could … [Read more...]
Today we're going to learn how to create a squeeze page. I just found this squeeze page software that is going to make life so easy for you and there's a 15 day free trial. :) Before we get to creating the squeeze page, let's talk about what makes a squeeze page convert. When I say convert I mean makes people put their names/emails in and click submit. The point of a squeeze page is simple. Give people two options. Fill in the opt in box or click the back button. You don't want … [Read more...]
Today we're going to start our blogging journey. This journey begins with picking a topic. A niche if you will. While other projects we've done together have started at a keyword research tool, this one does not. This project starts in you. In your heart, in your mind, in your spirit. This one starts with passion. What is it that you just can't stop talking about. What is you could talk about for days, weeks, years? That's what you're going to blog about. Now before you start thinking … [Read more...]
Social bookmarking, just like blog commenting is a quantity vs quality thing, in my opinion. There are millions of places to bookmark your posts and your site, but before we get to that let's try and get clear about what social bookmarking is, why you might do it and how it can help you. Image via CrunchBase What is social bookmarking? Back in the olden days ~ you know a few years ago ~ when you wanted to keep track of sites you liked you clicked the "bookmarks" tab at the top of your … [Read more...]
Let’s Get to Know Each Other!
Social media gives me the opportunity to get to know you better, as well as giving me the opportunity to share more of me than just the "internet marketing" side. I share multiple facets of me, and my life on social media, so if you choose to connect with me don't expect it to be 100% internet marketing... because it's not. :)
