Break It Down To Get It Done
Seminar – Last opportunity for 2010!

Break it down to get it done Ask any good business coach how to achieve something big and they’ll tell you to break it into small pieces and schedule regular time in your calendar.
You’ll nibble at the pieces and get it done. Nowhere is this technique more effective (or necessary) than improving your web site marketing machine. You don’t have IRD deadlines or shouting customers to motivate you. Just your own innate sense that this will power you ahead of the competition. No pressure. No deadlines. Your will-power vs the constant demand for your time from all directions. Mountains Aren’t So Big…
It’s amazing how a mountain shrinks when you plan everything that needs to be done to climb it. Your plan could be a simple list, which you break into 6 or 12 tasks. If you need to fill them with detail to get a handle on the project and make it real then let step 1 of your project be to add this detail. Or your plan could be a collection of modest quotes from your web designer. So you can take a step forward every month without stressing your cash flow.
If planning or starting big projects is something you tend to put off then let your web designer do the planning for you.
(Call us if this is the right approach for you.)
Keeping Your Momentum Going Ok, the hard part is done. That wasn’t so bad. Was it? Now for the next hardest part – keeping the momentum going.

Quick Tip
Open your web site in your browser.
Now hold your business card, your letterhead and a photo of your company vehicle (or any 3 branded ‘things’) next to it.
Are they all INSTANTLY recognisable as being from the same company?
If they are – congratulations, you are doing better than most.
If not – you may have to start building your recognition and credibility from scratch for every visitor to your web site.
