Minding Your Own Business Previous Topic | Next Topic | Topics The Minding Your Own Business Network is not currently active and cannot accept new posts What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? Views: 4621 Jan 04, 2006 2:43 pm What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Denise O'Berry Dear Members -- The new year is a time when most of us will set some targets we want to achieve. One of the best ways to accomplish those goals are to share them with others. There are almost 1500 "others" on this network who would like to see you be successful. So take a minute and post one goal for your business in this thread. We'll periodically revisit this thread throughout the year to check in and see how you're doing. Who would like to start? Best regards, Denise O'Berry Private Reply to Denise O'Berry Jan 05, 2006 4:57 pm re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Howard Meadows Well, not to get too philosphical or anything, but here's my thought. Ever since reading Robert Kiyosaki's book "Business School for People Who Like to Help People", and reflecting on Zig Ziglar's famous saying, "you can get whatever you what by helping enough other people to get whatever they want", I think my goal would be to help at least one person each month have a genuinely better life. That might be financially, it might be health wise, or just feeling better. I don't know why I chose one per month. I guess 12 must be a good number. Isn't that the number of people Jesus worked with? :-) Best wishes for a great new year to everyone. -Howard Private Reply to Howard Meadows Jan 06, 2006 6:23 am re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Barb Desmarais One of my business goals is to discover an effective marketing tool to help sell my online products.

One of my major goals this year is to syndicate my column. Looking forward to reading additional posts on this topic.

Private Reply to Stephanie Chandler Jan 07, 2006 3:32 pm re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Terry Green Wow, picking out just ONE business goal that I want to achieve his year is a toughy. I guess my biggest goal - the one that will make the biggest difference in my business, would be to make enough contacts, and get to know enough speakers, that Fastype is the first name that comes to mind for speaker support.

I just finished my overall goals, ones for life and ones for this year and some of them were business related. My number one goal is to advantage of new contacts... what I mean is to follow up and make something happen that will be beneficial for both... all to often because of lack of focus or life we do not jump on or take advantage of gifts that are put in front of us... mostly from others.... I want to be very focused on following through in 2006... Steve www.thursdayfile.ca click on the apple ! Private Reply to Steve MacDowall Jan 08, 2006 1:50 pm re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Debbie Stanton Hello Denise, If I had to pick ONE goal it would be to gain more of a work/life balance. Often times, when owning a business, running a home etc., the balance between work and personal time is skewed. While on vacation each year I wonder why I don't take more time for myself and my family. This year I am working towards meeting that goal. Wishing you all a successful and BALANCED 2006!

Free or not, it doesn't matter---just get one million people to read WANTED:HERO. That would be my goal. That may seem like a lot, but it's not... I only wanted to gain 60,000 people in traffic in a month as the goal for 2005, and I ended up having over 500,000 in a single month...so who knows---maybe this next goal can be done too! Jaime Buckley http://www.wantedhero.com Private Reply to Jaime Buckley Jan 10, 2006 2:35 pm re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Shirley Frazier My goal is to speak at events outside of my comfort zone. I conduct about 30 trade show seminars each year, but it's time to expand outside of that field. There are some things I do consistently that I look forward to continuing this year, which I posted on my blog. http://solobusinessmarketing.com/blog/nfblog/?p=96 Shirley http://www.SoloBusinessMarketing.com/ Private Reply to Shirley Frazier Jan 11, 2006 5:28 pm re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Dana Neal My one goal: MAKE this business work.

So My ONE big business goal for 2006 is to get 1 new contact a day, and at least one product sale a day. Thank you all for the chance to network with you. Private Reply to Cindy Hargreaves Jan 21, 2006 11:25 pm re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Larina Kase Hi Denise, Thanks for the thought-provoking question (it's challenging to get down to one but very helpful for prioritizing!) and for moderating this list! My main goal for 2006 is to build my mailing list- to at least 5,000. I put a lot of time into my newsletters and I've received great feedback so I'm inspired to quadruple my list this year. I'm in the process of coming up with some "ethical bribes" to enroll people in the free newsletters, such as free ecourses and ebooks. I'm also expanding my joint ventures to offer more great free resources to those on my list. All the best, Larina Private Reply to Larina Kase Jan 22, 2006 3:42 am re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Walter Paul Bebirian I would simply like to be able to remember and keep in mind what it is that I understand right now: what it is that business is for me including the vision of a balance of all elements that I sensed for myself this morning! thank you!

You're six weeks into your action plan for this year. How's it going? Plan still on the top of your desk or is it hidden somewhere? If your charging along, that's great. Tell us about your progress.

Rhonda Warren The Mom Outlet www.momoutlet.com Private Reply to Rhonda Warren Feb 20, 2006 12:14 pm re: re: re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Denise O'Berry Thanks for the updates and for those of you who have posted your ONE goal for the first time. Remember that a goal should be specific and measurable in addition to being time activated. Making a general statement as a goal is often too overwhelming and can cause you to procrastinate and abandon the goal. For example. 1. Get more publishers for my small business tips column -- http://www.deniseoberry.com/myob.html -- is a pretty general statement. 2. Syndicate my column to 10 more offline outlets and 25 more online outlets by June 30, 2006 -- is much more specific. A specific goal is much more actionable than one that is general in nature. Tackling a general goal is kind of like trying to chew an entire elephant rather than taking one bite at a time.

It certainly helps us to evaluate exactly what are the crucial goals to head towards. My goal is to create a strong and lasting rapport with our client base. Using on-going care and consideration, always being accesible and treating every person as an individual and with the utmost respect and care. This is just the start of my set goals but is vitally important to our business and for me as a person. Kind regards, Rachel www.tamaralyster.com Character Driven Marketing Private Reply to Rachel deHar Feb 23, 2006 9:45 pm What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Casper Stockham - Success Leaves Clue$ Hey Carol A million friends is a large goal for sure but one well worth having in my opinion. Several years back I met John Kalench, before he died. He is the gentleman that wrote the book "Being The Best You Can Be In MLM". John told me his goal at the time was to have a million friends and I thought this was very interesting. It is important to note he already had millions in income. I don't think he ever made it to 1 million friends but he was well on his way and very loved by many before he left us. If someone is famous they can have a million people who want to be their friends but what I am talking about is much different. Like John I want to meet a million people I can call a friend. Of course there are different levels of friendship and what I am talking about is at the basic level. For example I know you when I see or talk to you and vis versa, like we are doing now. So as long as you do not mind I can add one more to my list. :-) I do not have a good way to track them all but I don't think we need to. All you need to track are the closer contacts and friends who are helping you in your current endeavor. Have a great day Carol Casper Stockham 303 337-9432 casper@casperstockham.com ____________________________________________ Join our Ryze Network - http://datablaze-network.ryze.com Success leaves clues - http://www.casperstockham.com Private Reply to Casper Stockham - Success Leaves Clue$ Mar 01, 2006 8:39 am re: What ONE business goal do you want to achieve this year? # Lily Robinson Just to become profitable, lol.

It is scary out here in the public world. Internet Marketing in the banking world was safe. I knew what content to write - where to find it. I knew how to work with the websites, links - I knew it all. So, who in their right mind would expect a run on a bank and 70 of the US banks to go under?
