Subject: My "Friday Focus Group"

Hi Friend

**********************
New to this group?

You can read about my
Friday Focus Group
and the Friday Blueprint
at the end of this message.

**********************

Last week I asked what you focus on most
in your blogging business or online business.

The most common thing was "getting traffic"
to your blog or website.

Second to that was "email marketing."

Then I asked this:

If there's one single thing that you think is
stopping your from getting massive results
from your blog or business...

Strangely, it wasn't "traffic" or how to
"build an email list?"

It was...
"know what to sell to your followers?"

Do you see what's going on, here?

I do.

It jumped right out at me because I see this
so many times in my private coaching.

In fact, if you've even done private coaching
with me, you'll probably know the answer.

It's simply this.

If you're spending most of your time focused
on getting traffic and doing email marketing,
yet you have very little idea of "what to sell
to your followers"...

you are putting the cart before the horse
in your blogging business.

It's okay if you're doing this, as long as you
see what you need to do next.

Answer: figure out what to sell to your audience.

What do they want and need that you can supply?

Until you've got that right, all the traffic
and list building in the world won't seal the
deal to a profitable blog.

Now, I say it's okay if you've been focusing
on traffic only because, if you've been getting
some traffic flow...

once you inject some products and services
into your blogging and email marketing...

THEN you have a real business and not just
a hobby blog.

The truth... you need both, traffic, and
things to promote to folks.

But you need BOTH, not just one or the other.

So take stock, and focus on what you've been
doing with your blog.

If you're only focused on traffic and not
the means for converting it into sales, then
start getting focused on conversion.

and vice versa... if you've focused mostly
on conversion, it's time to get more serious
about driving traffic.

Before I leave my Sunday version of the
"Friday Focus Group," I'd like you to know
about this...

I'm honored that Sean has asked me ("Mrs. X" haha,
to be his "mystery guest" on this LIVE event.

It's a great chance for you to ask questions
from 2 experts in this business...

myself and Sean Mize (one of the biggest
stars of online marketing who very few
people know).

Hope to see you there.

Talk soon,

Donna

PS:

================== >>
If you're new to my newsletter...

Here's what my "Friday Focus Group"
is all about.

This was the first email I sent out
introducing folks to it.
================== >>

This is not a "group"
in the official sense.

I didn't wake up and
say "I think I'll start
this thing..."

But I've been talking
some lately about how
I use Friday as a focus
day.

I create my Blueprint for
the next week each Friday.

Then, starting Monday
morning, I know exactly
what I've got to do in
order to accomplish my
goals for the week.

On a larger scale, I see
my weekly goals as baby
steps toward achieving
my "Big Goal".

I usually set a "Big Goal"
as a 6 to 8 week goal that
I really want to reach.

That, of course, is a milestone
toward achieving my big, big,
big goal... operating a
successful online business.

Now, to operate a successful
online business, it is necessary
to constantly strive to reach
my "Big Goals."

So you see, it's all too big
to do unless I put all my focus
on one week at a time.

That's what my Friday Blueprint
is for.

It keeps me from developing a
"wandering eye" or "jumping
the fence" for each new thing
that looks intriguing or easy.

==> Here's the thing.

I'm rambling.

Let me stop and tell you what
this email is about.

Lots of folks who are on my
email list = thanks for your
loyalty :) =

Lot of folks on my list have
been replying to my emails to
tell me about their goals and
their own "Friday Blueprints."

Then they follow up and tell
me how it's progressing.

A few people have been doing
this every single Friday.

They tell me their goals for
the next week one Friday.

The next Friday, they report
back and tell me how they did,
plus... what their new Blueprint
is for the next week.

So they've kind of established
an accountability relationship
with me right from this email
list.

And I've seen them grow through
doing this, plus, I give some
feedback from time to time.

(Hey! I usually charge for my
email coaching, so you get a
little freebie here for being
my loyal sub, heehee)

That's it, really.

You wanna play?

Just reply to any of my Friday
emails and tell me what your
Blueprint is for next week.

Then, make yourself accountable
to me (and to yourself)... by
letting me know how you made out
with it, where you slacked off,
where you exceeded your goals,
etc.

Nothing formal.

Nothing to sign up for.

Just do it!

I'll be happy to be your support
and accountability partner.

Send me your Friday Blueprint
right now.

I love my weekend reading :)

Talk soon,

Donna
