1. I use a contest/giveaway on my site to generate traffic, then I advertise that. The Grand Prize is MY product so I mostly draw in people that are interested in my product not just wanting to WIN something. http://www.chicksandcubs.com/giveaway.htm

2. Write out your processes so you get it all done. Example: order process. Print out the order, Run credit card, input order in computer, print out receipt, pack order, print shipping label…. Also will help you streamline your process.

3. Set a schedule for doing certain tasks. Mondays - update inventory on site, Tuesday - make cold calls, Wed - make up sample packets….

4. Keep trying a marketing/advertising idea long enough to see if it works. Too many people do something one time, don’t get a sell or get only one sell and say that didn’t work. Committ to doing it for a good time.

Thanks Cynthia!
