How to get 300 Premium Subscribers by 12.31.18 EDUCATE: Pinciple #11

My 11th Bedrock Business Success Principle is EDUCATE-You must become a student and a teacher of your business. Treat it like it's a classroom and you are the Principal
It's been 5 days since my last post and I still have not even made 1 attempt at signing up an affiliate. What I have done is spent a lot of time training, researching and exploring the WA platform. I can tell you flat out that all the tools, training and support needed to achieve my objective is right here, centally located at www.myWealthyAffiliate.com.
This is what I have learned so far, taking into account the fact that I've decided to forget everything I thought I knew about internet marketing before:
1: I need traffic
2: I need specific (Niche) traffic
3: I need a good website
4: I need KEYWORDS to get traffic
5: The Wealthy Affiliate Platform includes website hosting
6: The Wealthy Affilitate Platform includes Jaaxy, a powerful KEYWORD tool
These are the positive steps I have taken
So I have consolidated all of my existing sites into the WA platform. This will allow me to monitor everything from 1 dashboard. I think anyone running a business with a website should be using this platform. I was paying $40 a month to Godaddy just to host my sites!!!! I have also created a website which I will use to promote my WA business.
I have narrowed my niche down to female teachers facing retirement. I've actually created an avatar describing my ideal prospect down to having grandchildren living in a city or suburb with a high cost of living. I have done research on what kind of terminology they use, where they shop and what thier hobbies might be. I think I came to the conclusion that if they don't have any real hobbies or interest they would not be a good match.
Why is this a good niche for me? Besides my WA business I also provide business and individual accounitng services. The prospects I attract to my and get to optin to my mailing list are also prospects for my tax business.
