This is definately a problem that I have and whilst I am a newbie, it would be nice to see the list grow.
On the webinar with Alex Jeffreys the other night, he started with a few words that struck a chord with me;
“Results and Excuses”
Alex suggested to “Write down all the reasons you’re not building a list and then erradicate them”.
So here goes …
- Not enough traffic visiting my site.
- The traffic is nearly all Alex Jeffreys students, who will already have the same eBook that I’m offering.
- No unique free information products to entice people.
- The appearance of my blog is not quite right.
Now I’ve taken the step of understanding what’s wrong, I can start to develop an action plan to erradicate each of the problems.
I’ll start today by building a project plan using mindmap and let you follow my progress.
Is anyone else in the same position?

There’s no getting away from the fact that a business owner who plans ahead comes across as being more ambitious and more focused. A well prepared Business Plan demonstrates you have vision and that you know what you want
Every action you take has a consequence, and a Plan helps make these consequences much clearer. Being aware of the possible effect of your chosen direction allows you to plan ahead, leaving you better able to cope with whatever the world of self employment can throw at you. This is one thing that “mental planning” would not achieve

I think we all will struggle initially given we are all new and need to build our identities and product offerings with real value. I think that the key is having an adaptable plan which not only focuses on our individual goals but also looks to address any weaknesses and shortcomings so that we can move onwards and upwards.
With some grit and determination we will get there in the end!!
All the best
