Setting Up Your Monthly Action Plan

I want you to take a hard look at yourself. Which one of the following are you?

1.Are the wannabe online marketer than buys self help and business building materials and keeps them safely hidden away on your hard drive?

2.Are you the type that uses the information and becomes financially independent?

All of the information and help are right in front of you to build a solid online business. Unfortunately many people start their business but never succeed. The only reason they don't succeed is because they don't follow through.

Make up your mind right now you will put in the time necessary and develop a monthly action plan. Once your plan is set up, work it. Here are ten things that should be in your action plan.

1.Start your keyword search for your market niche. You may have to go back and review this step; if so, get started. You need to have a minimum of ten keywords optimized on your site.

2.Start rewriting your website content for search engine optimization. This is a process that you will do often. This is not a task you will do only once and forget about it. Check every page.

3.One of the actions you should take every month is to check your competitors. Visit their websites and see what they are doing right. Also use compete and Google trends.

4.Take a serious look at your website design. Are you using the right colors? Can your buyers navigate easily? You are very familiar with finding information but is everyone? Have someone else review it and get their point of view on the website's design and ease of use.

5.If you're not using video yet, start to learn about it so you can. Take this month and do your research.

6.Review your email campaigns. Learn something new and put that in your email copy. Review the copy every month to see if you can't increase your open rate.

7.Should you offer more discounts or free information with your emails? Analyze each response and broadcast offer for credibility.

8.Is there anything that you can automate? Have you investigated ghost writers for your article writing? Sign up with an article submission service.

9.Set up a blog at one of the social sites like Squidoo, Twitter, Blogger, etc.

10.Find one new product to sell. The product list is endless.

These are only some of the things that you can do each month. The important thing is for you to write out an action plan at the beginning of every month. What do you want to accomplish? Write it down and then do it.

There is only one difference between the people that succeed in this business and the ones that don't. That difference is the winners take action and the wannabes don't. The money is right there in your keyboard and mouse. Are you going to dig it out? The choice is totally up to you.

Good luck and get to work.
