You Can't Be A Quitter

Everlast Pro Style Training Gloves (Black, 14 oz.)After another day of throwing in the towel and deciding I will sell my computer and take up knitting, I am up and at the keyboard again. I feel like I'm in a boxing match, down and out, but I keep getting up and trying again. Hopefully this Internet Marketing learning will not leave me bruised and beaten.

After a while, I feel like I can't give up - I've spent way too much time and money to quit. I realize that something is getting into this old brain when I talk to non-Internet marketers about some of the things I'm doing. They are so impressed that it gives me the drive to want to continue. But when I get back in the ring with the pros, then I realize I am a small-town boxer who doesn't really know how to fight.

What I need is a good coach and I think I have found a couple of them. I need to put on blinders though and not get distracted by all the other coaches out there, each trying to get me to follow their style.

There may be a lot of rounds left in this old girl yet! Please comment and give me some inspiration to continue.

Until next time,
Carol

Opt-in Forms

I spent today creating opt-in forms for each of my blogs. Mind you, other than this one on blogger, which is so easy to install, I have no idea what to do next. My other blogs are in Wordpress and have to be copied into the HTML code. For a non-techie like me, that is a big deal. Update: With the newer versions of Wordpress and the use of widgets with most themes, adding an opt-in form is now as easy as on a Blogger blog. I went to Aweber and created my form, copied the code that's produced and pasted it into my HTML widget. And I even sound like a techie, don't I? Until next time, Carol

Youtube Videos - Are You Using Them?

Creating more Youtube videos is on my to-do list for this spring. But I think I need to take a lesson from my granddaughter's future husband and learn to use humor much more than I do. Here is a recent video he created to give you an idea of what I mean. Don't miss the surprise ending. Until next time, Carol

Jet Lag and NAMS 4

Okay, it wasn't a jet, but I did take a 747 to NAMS. And yes, I've been back for a week now. But it takes me a while to recover so you won't get all the juicy details for a bit longer yet. All I can say is I took loads of notes, hung out with some amazing people, and wish they didn't live so far away. I learned a lot and really enjoyed the sessions with Bob 'The Teacher' Jenkins, Karon Thackston, and Kathleen Gage. Of course all of the presenters were great, but those three I got the most from. And I had a 15 minute consultation with Mark Hendricks as well. The last NAMS I didn't think I had anything to discuss with him, but this time I forced myself to sign up. I was super nervous, but he was very easy to talk to, and he actually liked my idea for a membership site. I'll talk more about that another time. Once I get my notes organized, I'll give you my top ten takeaway points. Now the challenge is to do them, not stay in learning mode. So
