What Not To DO!
Hello everybody! It has been a while since I have been able to connect with some of you here, much less even think about writing anything more than a quick post on FB.
But, I do kinda like where I am and where I am headed, for the most part. And the direction I am going in my marketing strategy! What NOT to DO!
Everybody has the answers. Everybody can tell you what to do, but, is there anyone out there to say to us DON'T do THAT!? I think that is my perfect angle... And being a mom, it is a natural fit, don't you think?!
Well, maybe a lesser version, but, I love telling people what not to do!
It just automatically makes you an expert with out actually having to tell people what they NEED to BE doing... LOL!
All because I am learning to work from home! It is teaching me so much! I am so excited about ALL the MISTAKES I am making!!! LOL, yes, you heard me.
I am great at making mistakes. I am a multitasker at making multiple mistakes. I do it SO WELL!! And I can usually take it to a whole new level! YES, I take making mistakes to the nth degree and can make them in the physical and metaphysical at the same time!
It is so exciting to see what I am accomplishing in so short a time!! I feel exhilarated!
Whoever thought I would be a success and make money by making mistakes at making money!? Wahoo!
I am excited to be becoming the teacher and mentor that I have always wanted to be.. DO AS I SAY NOT AS I DO!!
I love that I can make decisions and get things done without relying on others to make decisions for me. Working for yourself makes you live a whole new dynamic.
I cannot blame anyone else for my at home business dealings except me....plus, I have ample support to do so! People say I will never make money do this! Ha ha! Well, I just made more money than you did, not doing it, so, IN YOUR FACE! Another booyah moment!
I just love being positive about knowing so much about what not to do, because I know plenty! My expertise may not only help me, but, it may help many!!! What is not to love!!?? Bam!! WHAT!?
Well, now that THAT silly little tirade is out of the way, on a more serious note, I am taking one step at a time. Even though it looks a little clumsy(and it is!) I am making progress and I am learning!
I finally got a cute little speed drawing intro for my videos. I can now edit it to combine it with my videos with two clicks!! I can all cut out parts that I do not like, such as my breathing which slows my whole talking process down.. I love to look like I am talking without breathing anyway!! Ha Ha!
I use Flimora and got the yearly subscription! Now, I am going to go all Hipster YouTuber on everybody! How cool is that!! Well, obviously at my age it is not that attractive!! No ones seems to appreciate my gangster lingo. "Whatup!?' As you can see, that does NOT work... So, now that I have found my direction, I now need to find my STYLE!
How are you all doing?! Have you been having trouble finding your direction as well?! You working on a marketing strategy for your business and can't focus on one thing long enough to even try?
How can I help you?! Even if I can't help you, how I do hope you all reading this, find more straightforward and simple answers to your questions..than I have!! Because in this business it is not always cut and dried! But, keep going forward!!
Wishing you the best!! ♥pJ

Great post and now I have a follow-up. You ask "How can I help you?" Could you share your marketing strategy? Perhaps in a short training. This might be useful for the whole WA community.
I will be happy to share it when I am sure it works.. That is a great idea and that would help everyone out for sure. Thank you for asking!
Love this!! Mistakes......Yep, been there done that, too!! And.....I am on a wonderful journey taking one day at a time, and learning more & more each day!! Thanks for sharing with us, PJ :-)
Thank you, Diane, for adding your thoughts! I am glad to hear you have been there too.. i never want to sound like I have it all together or have all the answers even if I do some day! LOL!
Good to read your post Pj. It's encouraging to know that I am not the only one who makes mistakes. Yesterday I started on a new goal plan and I'm looking at that positively. Do hope I succeed, if not it will be another mistake and I can do without that!
Hello my dear Valerie! Always good to talk to you! I am looking forward to see you succeed in your new goals. Tha is exciting!!
I love your picture! so fresh! Yes, retail can be very good for learning to listen to people, which is important... as well when you work in retail, you usually have a lot of time to do that.. Unless its a crazy holiday, then, you are just busting your butt to get them what they already know they want, Unfortuanately, we cannot just take peoples money and get them out the door online and to even learn the process takes many hours in a day...
I needed some more encouragement. It is hard to find a balance between creating this new lifestyle of working online and yet keeping the current job until things here take off. Thank you!!
Hi, Tina! Yes, we are all right there with you! so we feel that pressure to preform and move in the right direction NOW. We feel we dont have the time or the pleasure to make mistakes, but, we have to, to grow...right?

Great discourse PJ. Did you get your video and animation ideas from Loes? They are wonderful and expertly done.
No i did not actually. I use Fiverr and was poking around there and found someone to do the speed drawing and music for me. I actually created the logo in Canva .... so I may have gotten the Canva idea from her! :)
