300 to go!
Today is a day full of numbers. They are on my mind and they have such significance.
For example, the number just beneath the plane is still 300, which means I am 300 referrals away from going anywhere near Vegas with Kyle and Carson.
Of course, what did I expect, I have only just started with WA, less than 2 weeks ago (another number).
Another number is 355, which are the number of WA members following my every move, apparently. Just kidding!??
Honestly, I love to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs, as I find it energizing and the words of encouragement are absolutely amazing. I really can't do this without your support, knowledge, and valuable feedback.
To overstate it a bit, you are my mirror!
Yet more numbers, that seem to be staring me down, are 0 - private messages, 2 - activities, only 95 people in my Facebook group, Build My Business - Join my Facebook group! (Hint), and of course 0 comments to be approved on my blog, Make Our Money - Start Now (Hint Hint).
So there!
If I were a nervous person, I would be discouraged. But, no! Not me! Not now. I will NOT be stared down, especially not by mere threat of numbers!!!
Although numbers can tell us much of our progress, in anything we do, I much prefer to focus on the wonderful people I am meeting each and every day on WA, and the quality of the conversations. Not to mention the excellent training that I am really sinking my teeth into, and enjoying so much. Did I say thank you to Kyle and Carson?
It's never too late to be grateful. So here it goes:
THANK YOU, KYLE AND CARSON !!!
Let's calm down.... Breathe.. Okay.
You think I'm done? Not at all. Here's some more numbers running around in my head:
- 900 followers on Twitter, 400 on Facebook, and I need 10 times that to really consider that I have an audience, which could respond to my tweets and status.
- Only 268 tweets (you read right), and I need 100 times that to have any real influence on my followers.
- 3 pages completed on my blog, including the Start Now and Who is Renee? pages, but I need 3 more articles pronto. And I want them to come from the heart, because they serve as the foundation for my blog!
I have numbers coming out the brain (tsk, tsk, what were you thinking?). And you know what, I am loving it. Because, even though I am not where I need to be right now, I am learning the way, step by step, taking action, doing what I love.
So I am certainly not complaining about knowing the numbers. They are pushing me to do what I need to do, to get where I want to be.
How about you? Any numbers on your mind?!!

We just need to put our heads down and learn. We can reassess our progress in 6 months......and that is only a number.
Thank you so much for your excellent advice. Hey, your name says it all. We need to cree8it ;)
I can feel your enthusiasm light the roll of the thunder we had in a storm this week. Never, never, never give up.
Good for you...where was my head with "light" rather than "like" I was seeing the lightning before the thunder. It was quite a show. Now I'm thinking of Kyle's post with the competition for the coffee mugs. I want one of those mugs. So off to work I go, researching product. Keep up your enthusiasm, Renee. You will do quite well.
I left a comment and joined your FB group! Don't let the numbers stress you out. Focusing on your content is the priority and the numbers will begin changing!
Hey Melanie!
Thanks for leaving comment, one of my first 2, so nice of you. Love your site on how babies learn through play, so true. I think that I learn through working on my website. But you are so right that creating great content is key. Lucky, I enjoy it :)
I've got the same 300, don't expect it to change in the next 3 months, and certainly not by 300! I've 1100 clicks and not a single paying join up. Only 1 sign up out of all those folks.
I'm concentrating on my niche site for now!
Hey Melody!
Actually bookmarked your blog, More Fun More Joy - what a hoot, just great tips on reclaiming that inner child and being joyful. Thanks for that. See you in Vegas 2016 - Let's go for it. Best :)
Don't worry about your FB page. They won't show your posts to too many anyway. I have one page with 2,500 people on there and if my posts go out to 10 without paying extra, it's a miracle. I am @GhostWriteHer on Twitter if you'd like to follow. I follow back. My airplane still shows 300, too, but I'm planning on being in Vegas in 2016. Looking forward to seeing you there, Renee!
Hi Carla,
Love your blog on Very Dressy Flats, so cool and surprisingly informative! Nice :)
So what you're saying reminds me another number, actually, I am following 2000 people on Twitter, which is my limit, unless I get new followers, like 10,000 of 'em I guess. So I'll have to unfollow somebody, to follow you ;)
Great blog Renee! For me not worrying about the numbers is the way to keep me going. Well, maybe I worry about the numbers on the bottom of my pages & posts that tells me how much content I have created .. lol. That seems to be the challenge for me. Just keep that go get em attitude!
Hi Kathee,
Thanks for your nice comment :)
Love your blog on candles, so fun!
Content is king and it makes us work for our buck, that's for sure!
I say keep producing and enjoy every moment.
Best :)
You are welcome & thank you for the comment on my site. That was very kind of you. That was you right? : ) I'm with you on the producing & enjoying thing for sure!!

Oh, you are good with social media, I need to learn from you. I am no good in this area. :)
Hi Jewel,
I like your Nice Biz website, really well done!
Okay. I can help you with all social media marketing. Send your questions via PM, or in a comment, and I'll get back to you for sure.
Currently, working on a training for basics of social media marketing to go on my blog too. Believe it or not, a lot of people ask me about how to use social media for promotional purposes. Or how to get on there, period! So, it is definitely a topic I will be developing. Your questions will help me create something useful.
Looks great to me, Renee. When you have developed anything new, let me know .. I think I am shy, so not really going into it on social media yet but if you have something good, why not? :)
