Unleashing the Magic of Goal Setting for Internet Marketers!
There is a magic power in goal setting that, when unleasehed,
can dramatically accelerate your results as an on-line marketer.
Those who understand and utilise the basic laws of goal setting
achieve extrodinary results. Those who don't can only wonder and
hope! This article explains how Internet Marketers can fire up
their on-line results by having the magic of goal setting work
for them.
First and foremost, goal setting establishes a sense of purpose
and order in our lives. When we develop a goals consciousness we
begin to live on purpose and by design, rather than be blown by
the winds of change. Goals give clarity to the objectives and
expectations that we have of our on-line businesses.
In Brian Tracy's new book 'Goals' he states that 'Success is
Goals, everything else is commentary'. In other words, at the
core of every great success lies an intensly goal focused
person. This is equally true with those striving for success
on-line. Success is a hard place to arrive at by accident.
Lets face facts! There are many people on-line today promising
that if you will just buy their program, marketing system,
traffic generation, MLM opportunity and more you will be
successful and make it big. There are thousands of eZines and
Newsletters out there that all claim to have the secret inside
information on how to be an Internet Marketing success just like
them. Every other web site offers free eBooks on how to turn the
Internet into a cash machine, or to generate a traffic virus.
There is just a ton of great quality information out there.
If there is so much information readily available then how come
you are still struggling to earn money from your on-line
marketing ventures?
No matter how good the information is thats available to you,
and no matter how good your online venture, success will avoid
you if you lack clarity around your objectives. With clarity
comes certainty and conviction. A lack of clarity leads to your
efforts being diluted and your attention easily diverted.
So how do you go about setting goals that are relevant to your
on-line business?
A good starting point is to establish goals using the S.M.A.R.T
formula. In other words goals have to be:
S - Specific M - Measurable A - Achievable R - Realistic T -
Have a time line
By using the S.M.A.R.T formula you give your brain clear
specific objectives to aim at. Your brain works best with
clarity. Focusing on, and dwelling constantly on clearly defined
objectives sparks your brain with the fire to achieve it. With
such clarity your Reticular Activating System will hone in the
exact resources, knowledge, skills and opportunitys you need to
make it happen.
What type of goals are required for success in your on-line
business?
There are certain fundamentals that you need to be proficient in
to be successful in any endeavour. Jim Rohn says that their is
usally about a half dozen things that you need to master that
will give you approximately 80% of your results. Success in
on-line marketing is no different. In order to establish a
successful on-line business you might consider setting specific
goals for the following key areas.
1. No of visitors to your web site. Per Day ? Per Week ? Per
Month ? Growth rate?
2. No of subscribers to your eZine. ie Of those visiting your
site, how many subscribe to your eZine? Whats your conversion
rate?
3. No of orders. How good is your sales copy? What is your
current conversion rate of visitors to sales achieved? What do
you plan to improve this to?
4. How many affiliates do you have? Do you have an affiliate
program? If not, when do you plan to have one up and running?
How many affiliates do you aim to have? No of sales made by your
affiliates?
5. Search Engine locations. How high do you want to aim ? Based
on how many key words?
6. Back end products. How many back end products do you wish to
develop? How many sales do you plan to make of your back end
products? What % of customers do you expect to sell your back
end products to.
These are just some example key performance indicators. Your
business may be different and require a different set of key
performance indicators.
So what should you do from here?
If you wish to unleash the magic power of goal setting in your
life then take action right now and complete the following three
steps. By doing so you will propell yourself forward into the
category of those who do vs those who dont. Your success will be
within your grasp and you will begin to activate the Law of
Attraction.
Step 1: Identify the Key Performance Indicators that you need to
ensure your success.
Step 2 : Clearly identify where you are at today in each area.
Step 3 : Write clear specific goals for the next 3 months, 6
months and 1 year.
Bonus Step 4 : Write down a vision statement of where you see
your on-line business in 5 years time. What will your business
look like? What turnover will it produce? What will be your
income from the business? What will your lifestyle be like?
Remember this when goal setting : Most people greatly
overestimate ehat they can achieve in 1 year and greatly
underestimate what they can achieve in 5 years. Use that as a
guiding principle in your goal setting. Watch the magic of goal
setting come to life and expand your on-line business and
gaurantee your success!
