The time is NOW! Take action with these 4 simple steps these Christmas holidays




The Best Time is NOW!

Do you have a business Idea for 2020? Take action with these 4 simple steps these Christmas holidays
As the New Year 2020 is now approaching very fast - only a few days away - if setting up your business for 2020 is on your resolution list then I would urge you to start taking some sort of actions NOW!
Holiday Season is the time we enjoy with loved ones, friends and/or family. Whether you want to or not, you are very likely to get distracted from your business start up projects! BUT eventually you managed to get some quiet you time and you want to take some actions but you are not too sure where to start?
Getting your thoughts organised about a project is often one of the most difficult parts of getting it started. Take a notepad and start making some notes. Start simple!

Try this over the next few days these holidays:
    1. Clarify your business motivations and vision. You can do this by writing it down or creating a vision board of your business and your life or creating a brand new one! You can do a paper version of you vision board or an electronic one. Pinterest Boards are really useful for that. Mind mapping or simply brainstorming on paper/notepad can be other options. Let your mind wander and write it down and save it!
    2. Start drafting out a business PLAN covering various aspect such as: WHAT, WHO, WHY and HOW of your business idea. Simply open a A4 document on word or equivalent and start by creating these 4 sections (WHAT, WHO, WHY and HOW). Simple as this! Once you have started with that the rest will flow. You don’t need to do it all at once. You can break it down over few days. Although sometimes once you have inspiration it might be wise to write things down and revisit and review these another day with fresh eyes.
    3. Do some online research on your competition, prices, packages...etc. Go on Google, Amazon, E-bay and do your research. Learn what your competitors are doing. What you like about it or not. What or how you can do things differently and better. Study your audience and the market trends. What do they really want?
    4. Draft some questions you could ask potential customers/clients about your project to get some feedback on your business idea.

          You can use this as a starting point to your business project and keep working on it until you feel confident enough to take action!






          The next step will be to bring your business plan to reality. Strategy + planning + right mindset + some start up funding will keep you going in the right direction.

          What is the difference between a blog and a newsletter?

          What is the difference between a blog and a newsletter? Blogging and newsletters are two effective online marketing tools that business owners can use to reach out to their audiences. However, many people are not sure what the difference between a blog and a newsletter is. In this blog post, we will explore the differences between blogs and newsletters and discuss which one is right for your business.  Blogs are generally used to share longer pieces of content, while newsletters typically contain shorter, more curated pieces of information. Blogs allow you to share your thoughts and ideas with your audience in-depth, while newsletters give you the opportunity to share links to your content as well as news and updates about your company.  Ultimately, the best tool for reaching your target audience depends on what type of content you want to share. To recap: 1. Newsletters are typically sent out monthly or bi-monthly, while blogs are updated more frequently 2. Newsletters usually contain

          #hashtag and @tag

          Are you confused between #hastag or @tags ? Here is some clarifications: On Facebook, Instagram and Twitter , the pound sign (or hash) turns any word or group of words that directly follow it into a searchable link.  This allows you to organise content and track discussion topics based on those keywords. So, if you wanted to post about social media for example, you would include #socialmedia  in your post to join the conversation.  You can click on a hashtag to see all the posts that mention the subject in real time. @Tagging people in social media photos can extend the reach of those photos, which is likely why some of us want to tag everyone and their brother – so to speak.  !!! But be careful with tagging people who are not actually in the photo. It could be considered spam or at least annoying. !!! only tag people in photos – no matter the network (Instagram, Facebook and Twitter all allow it) – when people are actually in them. Hope these clarifications help 😎😎😎 Keep it real !

We have been there. Done it and it did not work for us. FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS is the answer to productivity. We also agree that doing too much all the time will put our mind and body in a biological state of stress which in turn will eventually prevent us from using our brain or other physical functions at their fullest capacity.  Less Stress = better productivity We would also add that looking after one's physical body from the inside out (dealing with internal
