31 Day Internet Marketing Makeover



Leave it to me to decide to do a major internet marketing makeover...


I came across Michelle's 31 Day Internet Marketing Makeover last night somehow...I think it involved Twitter but as a Twitter newbie, I still tend to get information overload and can't remember how or where I found what information unless I hit the 'back' button a million times. That aside, I decided to give this makeover thing a try as it seemed rather fortuitous to come across it on day one.


Michelle MacPhearson looks like a cool chick who knows her stuff and she blows glass so that alone makes her formidable in this chick's eyes. Oh, and she wants to buy a Land Rover one day but is 'going to wait until the kids are older and less destructive'. That makes this Rover Chick very happy - both the LR part and the being sensible enough to let the kids destroy the Ford instead part. And no, that is not why I am recommending her 31 Day Internet Marketing Makeover...


Back to 31 Days: in this non-glass-blowing-super-hot-things-makes-her-nervous-unless-its-an-exhaust-manifold chick's opinion, you never quit learning. Most of my friends have heard me say at some point that if and when I ever stop being curious, kill me then and there. Life is about learning and growing and always getting better at, well, life. So, why not read 30 blog posts in 31 days about improving your internet marketing skills and potentially increasing your readership and search engine placement? Who is it going to hurt?


The other part that impresses me is Michelle discusses the 'crushing overwhelm' and 'bringing back conscious forward movement to your business'. Those are real words, not the hype and cocaine-induced hyper sales lingo that many such online courses throw at you. 'Overwhelm' is a word we have all dealt with in our businesses, online or otherwise, and 'conscious forward movement' just plain rocks! How many of us actually understand what it means to consciously make decisions and plan actions for our business instead of randomly following the path of what feels like it may make us some money?


Day two starts right now (oddly, the blog entry was posted as I was writing this post). It is about taking an inventory of your various sites and 'what you need to do to clear out the crap, the time wasters and money-suckers, you’ve got to know your inventory, how much each site makes, how much each site costs, and what you need to do to complete work on a site'.


Learn, grow, improve, and enjoy the end results!
