But manage?
No.
Hi everyone. I've been letting Liz's emails pile up in a special folder in my inbox, and what with reading all the other marketers' newsletters every day and downloading all the latest stuff, I completely let this one slip by.
Wrong move!
I realize this is probably one of the best marketing forums around!
I joined John Delavera's TurboMembership after buying his TurboNiches, and then I fell head-first into Jeremy Gislason and Simon Hodgkinson's Marketing Main Event 2 for a whopping $697!
I bought Teli Adlam's Optiniche Wordpress membership, and Jeff Walters' RapidNicheWebsites, and I got AdTrackz installed and phpAdsNew, and TheLinkMachine, and I have Bruce Hughbanks' WPMassInstaller installed also!
Whew! I AM a classic case study in newbie's addiction syndrome. Okay so I know that it requires making a plan and focusing on that plan. But when the-latest-thing-you-just-gotta-have-and-you-gotta-snap-it-up-before-the-price-goes-up, comes into my mailbox, I don't know what gets into me.
I wait tables at night and have been studying, studying, studying web design, online marketing, and webmastering for at least four years now. My problem is getting great ideas, registering great domain names, then running in to some obstacle and placing it on a back burner in favor of a new spark of creativity.
I install all these programs, including forums and ad-rotation, and feed-parsers, etc., then I toy with them, (without a second head on my shoulders to bounce ideas off of,) and I run into problems, obstacles, glitches, and so on... and the next day comes around and I have to go off to my waiter job again.
I'm in the midst of having to move from my current living situation now, and all my efforts will have to be put on hold even more now. Stressful times ahead, but I'm hoping to get through them and back to some serious planning real soon.
By the way, I went in search of rules for posting in this forum and can't find an answer to whether you can post your own URLs besides in your signature.
Anyway, I'm looking to network real soon and learn even more about marketing here. I should have been coming here a lot more often.
