Remember back in early January when everyone was blogging about their goals for the upcoming year? Like many others, I asked my readers about their visibility goals and got some great responses!
We’re now entering the homestretch of the year’s 1st quarter and I’m curious… are you doing what you said you wanted to do?
Just like gym memberships sell like hotcakes during the holidays (“This is the year I will have great abs!!” the people chant), so do dreams of making this the best year ever in your business.
And also like gym memberships, the euphoria of the 1st 30 days starts to wane and soon you find it’s July and you haven’t been to that step class for about 3 months…
I’m a big believer in baby steps to get a person out of the doldrums. Look back on your online visibility goals that you set for this year and ask yourself what baby step you can take TODAY to get started.
Need some guidance? Here are some ideas that will boost your visibility, seal in your credibility, and foster valuable relationships with your contacts. They’re quick and easy and can put you back on track to achieving your business goals:
1. Get to Know Your Social Networking Contacts Better
Take a look at your contacts and pick 2 people a week that you’ll invite to a personal conversation. I usually ask someone this question: “Tell me who would be an ideal referral for you.” That is a great way to show you care about them and their success, and also to then share who YOUR ideal referral would be.
2. Read
People who don’t read are missing out… period. Read to build your knowledge, read to broaden your mind, read to entertain yourself.
I’ve always got 2-3 business books going at the same time, which can be about best practices or how to. From time to time an incredible novel or history book will completely mesmerize me which always freshens my brain.
Keep inspirational daily readers in your bathroom, on your bedside, even in your car.
Books stimulate your thinking… and that could mean your next 7 figure idea!
3. Delegate
Another reason people don’t achieve their goals is because they have too much day-to-day administrivia on their plates and “things just don’t get done.” Look at the high cost of NOT delegating. When you free up time to work on your high payoff activities you create more opportunities to make money and get your powerful message out to the world.
No one has proven this to me more than my friend Sandra Martini, who I lovingly call “The Sass from Mass”. She recently told me in a very caring yet “I’m not gonna B.S. you” way how I could get more payoff from my time and efforts and it has made all the difference in the world.
I want you to stand out and get noticed. I want you to be the highly visible messenger you see yourself as. So let’s all do a collective regroup and look back at those big visibility goals we set out only 60 days ago. Take a little action, take a lot of action, but take some sort of action. The world needs your message so no more hiding out!
