You're Probably Right!!!

Success can sometimes inflate the ego. When coupled with excessive expectation and a fear of loss/failure it can be a dangerous combination. I had to face up to the fact that my success with the online business alliance was incomplete.

I was making sales. I was making money. But I still wasn't building an organization.

This meant I had to go back to scratch. It meant I had to recognize that I had to learn what it took to be successful with 1 up cash system and build a team. Team building is what I'm focusing on this next segment of my development.

So this is what I did today:

1. I made a flyer for off line marketing. This is because I had most of my income success of the last few years from flyer distribution. I had stopped my off line marketing when I started marketing the OBA. That was an error on my part. If something is working don't stop doing, find ways to enhance it.

2. I went out and spent about 3 hours distributing about 500 flyers. I had a 1/2 lunch break.

3. Last night I had downloaded free leads and put them in my bulk emailer. I found that over 60% of the leads were not valid. This didn't discourage me because I was looking at the emails that went through. The two lessons I learned were that it is important you set your email on read receipt. The second is to set up a second email account to use for the emails to send mail failure notices.

4. I got from my 1 Up Coach two classified sites to post ads on. I'll be doing that after I finish this entry. I also made a snapvine post this morning.

5. I streamed Money Chat with Steph and Stat over Hudson Liberty TV and Broadcasting Services
So that is what I did up to this point today. Catch you tomorrow.
