Another day...

Well it's back to the grind with my J.O.B. I work full time, at a business other than my own, and I refer to it as my J.O.B. I work there to pay the bills, but it is not what I want to do any longer than I have to. My goal is to be able to quit my J.O.B. by January of 2011. I know that it is a resonable goal based on other consultants in my business and what they have been able to accomplish in the same amount of time.
I did do some work on my business today, that resulted in sales for me! Woo Hoo! Go Me! My daily goals are pretty liberal: do something related to my business everyday. Pretty simple. Somedays I do more, somedays I do less...

Not enough time in the day

Well, I didn't get to my business of the week like I hoped to. I am thinking that I will do that on the first of the month, to get my month started strong.? I was busy doing?.....the laundry, cooking breakfast, lunch, and dinner, running errands, and blogging:) I did do some business stuff though. I made a deposit into my business account, and I contacted a couple of clients. Both of which will lead to sales. I wish that I could have done more, but I am not beating myself up about it (which is unusual). Maybe I am just happy because one of my errands today involved a new pair of shoes:)

Am I making the most out of my efforts?

Ok, so I am going to take my product to a local business that I have chosen as "My Business of the WeeK" and leave it with them to sample for the week. Along with the use of my product in their business for the week, they will have the opportunity to get the product for free, if they or their customers order $150 dollars worth of my product. Sometimes this has worked (Although not famously. Only resulting in one or two sales), and sometimes no interest at all in my product. Should I keep this up, and be grateful for anything I can get, or try something else? My business and my product are fairly new....maybe things will pick up when word gets out?
