… is my first blog post. 🙂
Everyone has to start somewhere, and as the saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step — or first post.
On this website, I will blog about my journey of starting an online business as a digital entrepreneur.
I will also use this platform to launch several information products, services, and training.
I’ve got big plans for what’s to come – what about you? I just signed up for this free goal-planning workshop and am creating my sales and marketing plan.
I’m very excited to start, but I also worry about biting off more than I can chew. See, I have a full-time job as a director of IT at a federal agency in DC. Actually, … it’s more than full-time 🙂 I am constantly working long hours, and it’s (more often than not) a stressful environment.
Over the past several years, as I have gained responsibility, my full-time job as director of IT has greatly interfered with my hopes and aspirations of running a successful side business as an online entrepreneur.
But not this year.
I am determined to make the time, make improvements on my time management, create strategies to prevent distractions (otherwise known as shiny object syndrome), and chart out a marketing plan that I can easily implement and track.
On my blog here, I will post about my journey and share my tips and strategies if and when I find things that are working.
I will be blogging about tools, training, and resources I’m using (and yes, some will have affiliate links if I actually LIKE the product and really would recommend it), and inviting you to engage with me about your own journey and what you’re learning and doing.
I will also be writing books, creating training courses, and launching services I can offer to other online digital entrepreneurs and small business owners. I may even launch an e-commerce store with a shopping cart.
Big plans, I know!
I’ll also share the ugly – what’s not working so well! 🙂 Because that’s how we learn and grow!
