You Need More Than Goal Setting...

That's right. You need more than goal setting to make your affiliate marketing success.

Let's say you set your goal to quit your job and focus on affiliate marketing full time by December 2008. But is that it?

Then what did you do to achieve your goal?

Did you drive any traffic to your website? How did you drive traffic to your site? By:
  • Article writing
  • Blogging
  • Ezine advertising
  • Link exchange

Thirdly, is what you do working? If yes then congratulation. Then refine your techniques and drive more traffic to your website, either to capture them as members or convert them into customers.

What if the things you are doing is not working?

Is it that your technique is outdated? If driving traffic was your concern, did you try:

  • Joint venture
  • Giveaways
  • Social marketing?

Lastly, did you write down your deadline to achieve your goal?

Few people do that, they ser a date and leave it be. They continue to pursue their dream, but they do it in their speed, there is no urgency.

This will be different if you write your deadline down because it acts as a motivation to push you forward. When you check your progress against your deadline, you will realize how close you are to your goal. If you are way behind, you will know you need to work harder to reach your goal on time.

Remember, never afraid to work more because the harder you work today, it will relieve you from the stress of rushing to reach your goal better.

So in summary, besides setting your goal, you still need to:

  • Know what to do to reach your goal
  • Determine which ways work best. If it give you positive feedback, continue your work and make it better; if it give you negative feedback, change what you are doing and try new approach
  • Always write your goal down so that you can achieve your dream on time

Create Your Success,

Remember, earning big is easy if you know how. :-)
