A Working Weekend
This continues to be a working weekend for me. I really do not mind because soon our beaches will be opened again and we will be heading off there to bask in all of its glory. After months of closure our seas and rivers are crystal clear, clean and so very inviting.
I cannot wait!
It is a rainy weekend and my daughter is away with her cousins, so I have all the time to relax with my websites, explore, research, do training, connect and support within our WA community.
This is a good time to catch up on some lagging goals.
Subscription Invitation Embedded
A couple of weeks ago I started my Mailing List using MailChimp and have been receiving consistent growth in traffic and sign ups for one of my new Newsletters. My Mailing List is growing quickly and that excites me.
Thank you to everyone who helped me make that decision. I could not have done it without you. MailChimp is free until I reach 2,000 Subscribers which will not be long. I intend to continue to build out my growth strategy in quick time.
It seems that the little dabbling I have been doing on Social Media (SM) and my consistent writing of blogs is paying off.
I could not be happier!
Online Entrepreneur Certification - Level 4 - Again!
My objective this weekend was to get my SM strategy fully implemented. To do that effectively, I returned to Wealthy Affiliate's (WA) Online Entrepreneur Certification (OEC) with Kyle. Level 4 is one of those training levels that you should do more than once I think.
After completing 2 posts, I got to fine-tuning my first company's presence across my chosen SM platforms:
If you have not done any of this yet, I STRONGLY recommend that you do and begin your personal and business branding in the expansive digital world.
Here's a little peek into my branding for one of my online businesses.

Pinterest Deserves Special Mention
I am really enjoying Pinterest and highly recommend that you get yourself on board, especially women and those of you who are building businesses that would appeal to women. They dominate Pinterest so make sure you are emotive and action-oriented with your Pins and Posts.
I started 2 new Boards today and will be using them to roll out Campaigns across other SM platforms.
A new Pinterest Board launched today
This Board will lead my 2020/Q3 campaign for the company and also be the impetus for beginning the company's online transition in July 2020. Things are already progressing better than I expected having started with Facebook some time ago..
What I love about Pinterest is that it is professional and well-organised. Pinners seems to know what they are about and are open to sharing, connecting and supporting.
Just like we do at WA.
Keep your visuals bold and attractive though. We tend to see first and then move in to engage more if we are attracted.
I Need A Bigger Screen!
So, this is what my screen header currently looks like:
Moving forward, that will be the new "normal". And, that is only for ONE of my businesses! But this way, I can easily switch and move around as I want to. I also do not have the opportunity to get bored or forget.
I can easily see notifications coming in and respond accordingly.
Social Media Requires Discipline and Focus
I know that Kyle has said this before but I feel the need to reiterate.
SM can be an abyss if you are not disciplined and focused. It is easy to get caught up in discussions, other people's posts, shiny objects, games and many other things.
Do not allow yourself to fall into that trap. One clip "just quickly" can turn into a lost and wasted day.
That said. SM is the enigine that attracts visitors to you and your online businesses. Do it well and you will enjoy endless returns, financially and otherwise.
