New Year Resolutions

Happy New Year everyone!

I am not one to make New Year resolutions just so I can break them a couple of weeks later. However I think it is a good idea to set myself a few goals which I hope to achieve in 2007 - these will dictate the sort of changes I need to make personally.
Last year I had many different ideas and was involved in several projects, this year rather than undertake more work I will focus on my exisitng projects and sources of income. At present this means primarily promoting dating and adult personals sites.

2007 Goals

My main target is to make £10K+ monthly profit from the affiliate programs I currently am on - this is obviously significantly more than I currently make but a figure which I think is realistic. Having learnt a little more about paid advertising, marketing etc I hope to launch more niche specific sites and apply the same marketing strategy on each.

My company will also launch 2 affiliate programs of our own. I have relentlessly continued to have developers work on a couple of projects. Regardless of the state of these I intend to have atleast 2 new sites go live in 2007 with affiliate programs to market seperately.

Develop AffiliateDatingSites.com (or new domain using same concept) into a large resource centre for affiliates of dating/adult personals sites. The target is to have atleast 5,000 subscribers to the site by the end of the year.

Resolutions

Dont worry, no nonsense about going for 5 miles runs, giving up alcohol for ever or doing a good deed every day! In order to meet my goals I do need to be as efficient as possible. These resolutions are more really guidelines that I need to constantly remind myself of.

• Always prioritise my workload
• Not to waste time/money on non profitable ventures
• Spend more time marketing than building and tweaking websites
• Use others whenever possible in every aspect of the business I cannot 100% handle myself.
