Business Marketing Magazine Summer 2017 Do It Yourself SEO Tips and Tools

I t’s the end of February 2016 and over 15% of the year has already passed. Unbelievable… Where does time go? The next thing you know, it’ll be the November elections and almost the beginning of next year! At least for me, if it’s anything like last year, there were a lot of things that I could have done that fell by the wayside for a myriad of reasons, including: 1. Procrastination 2. Conflicting priorities 3. Things/events outside my control that required immediate attention 4. Changing goals 5. New opportunities 6. Time wasters 7. Over-thinking / over-planning 8. Failing to delegate Honestly, other than #3 above, the lost opportunities of last year were mostly my fault, or at least somewhat in my control. I had the ability to manage my time and efforts more effectively than I actually did. This is not to say I did a poor job. Actually, a lot was accomplished. But, not as much as could have been. Was it the same for you? In the prior issue there was an excellent article on goal setting that will help me change my ways this year. But only if I actually follow the suggestions… Editor Steven Drozdeck Publisher Dark Twin Marketing and Publications Christy Smith Sales Manager Dave Nilson Art Director Michael Smith Copyright 2016 All rights reserved, no part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photo copying, recording or otherwise without prior written permission of the publisher.
