Hi everyone, it may seem a bit early for a review of 2012 but I have a big event starting on Dec 23rd so I thought it would be good time to do both.
Firstly, I am ending the year and beginning 2013 by co-hosting a major giveaway event with the able help of Keith Purkiss. Giveaway events are excellent not only for members but also contributors as there are many first class products available for FREE or on special offer at amazingly low prices.
Here is the link so that you can claim your own free gifts.
Find out more about Giveaways HERE.
Personal Highlights of the year for me have been spending time and travelling with my lovely partner Julia. We have been to Stratford which saw monsoon weather of biblical proportions, The English Lake District visiting Grasmere and the home of Lakeland poet William Wordsworth.
Bamburgh castle which I have always wanted to visit, and the Capital of Scotland Edinburgh to watch the show Midnight Tango. Plus a brilliant holiday in the sunshine of Majorca.
Business wise, I had a very successful year as an affiliate for John Thornhill’s One Month Mentor, Dan Sumners & John Thornhill’s Product Development Control and Dan’s Bloggers Roadmap. All top quality products from ethical marketers.
On my own products, I have completed my new Kindle home study course (which took months) which I think is my best product to date.
My Kindle books sell on autopilot but I have not produced much content in the second half of the year due to producing the Kindle video course.
I have however produced a number of smaller products such as……
Selling Information Products On eBay
Make A Killer Income From Small Ads
eBay Private Lable Empire
Things I am disappointed with 🙁
I had many more products planned this year that I never got around to finishing. Working my full time job has proved draining both mentally and physically leaving little time in the evening for working on my own business ideas or for R&R. I need to find a better balance here.
I had intended to produce Plugin Auction Profits 2 which is in completed draft planning, but this has now been penned in for 2013 as well as my print version or 12 Roads to Success via Create Space.
I had intended to offer custom WordPress websites for local businesses but just run out of time to even start this, maybe I was a bit too ambitious for one year?
So What Is In Store For 2013? Lots!
On a personal basis plenty of fun and travel!
On a business basis…
Priority 1
Continue to build my mailing list, obviously this will be ongoing.
Priority 2
Get my Kindle Product up for sale, I still need to finish the sales page and affiliate materials, order graphics etc.
Priority 3
Complete the upsell for the Kindle product about building an Information Business off Amazon.
Priority 4
Make more use of social media in my business and to blog and visit other blogs more often.
I have a number of other products and ideas in the planning stage which will see the light of dawn in 2013.
So what have you planned for 2013? Please leave a comment.
