All online business owners have times when they just stop moving forward. You might find yourself procrastinating more and in need of something to give you and your business a kick start. A challenge can do just that!
A challenge means setting a goal for a short period of time e.g. 21 days or 1 month. During that time you’ll do something above and beyond what you normally do – like posting on your blog every single day, interacting with 20 people on social media, or writing 2,000 words.
Not only will the challenge push you to achieve more, but it’s also a great time to test how much of an impact these activities have on your business.
If you have a blog, make the challenge public! Invite people to join and you’ll be building your brand and community in the process!
You can only improve your business if you have a clear idea of where you want it to go. This usually means setting goals. Sure, you can achieve success without goals, but that’s kind of like stumbling upon some buried treasure without a map. You’ll have much more chance of finding that treasure if you know where you’re going!
You should set both short-term and long-term goals, and make sure that every goal you choose is “SMART”. That means it’s specific, it’s measurable, it’s actually attainable, realistic and it has a time limit.
