Challenge! FEBRUARY BUILD YOUR BUSINESS CHALLENGE

[Sunny Irene Roth]

Hi Ladies,

Here is your business challenge for February.

This month's challenge builds on last month's challenge. So, have fun with it!

Let me know if you have any questions.

~ Irene

I'm in for the challenge. My goal for the month is to expand on some Social Media sites and pare down others.
There will be time in our chat this week to discuss where people feel their time is well and poorly spent.

I'm up for it.

Primary Purpose​

Mini-Challenge Discoveries

• I avoid Facebook because I find it difficult to post something useful but I do find it fun personally. For now, it’s okay to be goofy on my own FB page, and simply repost articles and blog links on my author pages.
• My websites look fine. Eventually I’ll have to redesign them but for now they’ll do and my efforts are best spent on blog posts.
• I love Instagram and this My_365 community there. It gives me a lot of pleasure to see the beauty of others’ lives and photos. Spending 10 minutes a night clicking “likes” is easy, as is stopping. This also gives me easy Facebook posts when I want to share.
• I have to nix Tumblr. I don’t have that vibe.
• To make Pinterest work for me I have to spend a chunk of time on it. Not this month because of Bootcamp, but maybe next month. If I can think of 10 boards that will be useful to me and/or others (and write them down) I can pin stuff there when I see it. I think that would be neat.

Mini-Challenge Commitment:

1. Set aside time in weekly schedule to plan blog posts, and then write them. That works best (I need to make it a routine)
2. Get rid of Tumblr
3. Have a list of “3 things” for every place I post so I’m not wracking my brain so often
4. Take a more strategic “look for this and post” approach to get in and out of a site in 15 minutes; if I’m scrolling looking for something to strike my fancy to post I give myself a headache.

Wow Lisa! This is very impressive!

You will be well on your way by achieving all of these mini-challenges! GREAT job!
