IM Checklist, Cont'd: Systemization (Part 7)

Greetings Fellow MLM'ers and Affiliates,

Posting content on a Saturday. Wishing you a happy weekend and a prosperous new week ahead, delivering part 7 of the Internet Marketing checklist. Please allow me to emphasize a few things before you see 4 major points on the list.

1) You are the CEO of your business --

Not your upline. Not your crossline.

If you are looking for help online, be certain to use careful discernment. The Internet is evolving, the economy is unstable, plenty of people are looking for work elsewhere and we are moving into an empowering time.

2) That much said --

... it's a great opportunity for you to finally create your dream job. With sweat equity and a little bit of cash upfront (not tens of thousands of dollars), you can publish yourself into your area of expertise. I will begin to fill in specifics along these lines in future posts. You can move yourself into profit. But, it's going to mean work. It won't happen instantly and it won't happen overnight.

3) The Internet is also a place where unscrupulous people will take advantage.


Please Let This Reasoning Be Your Guide --

In all matters -- whenever you're the consumer, time is always on your side.

Never let anyone tell you "that you have to make an important business decision..., right now..., today...or it's gone". If that happens, in truth -- then that biz opp is GONE. You don't need it. What you want is time-tested information and cutting edge material, and people who will be around for the long haul. These people will answer your questions with respect. As they show you what's out there (without having to reinvent the wheel), they will tell you "this is a standard offer". They won't berate you. Had to get that off my chest because nothing steams me more than human dishonesty.

IM Checklist, Part 7 -- Systemization

7.1 Outsourcing

This is NOT about getting people to do your dirty work. Truth be known --- the best entrepreneurs handle their own dirty work. They don't expect others to slave over what they know they must handle themselves.

This is about hiring people to help you with things you don't have time to master or things you've already mastered so that so you can tackle the bigger stuff, thereby moving your business forward. You pay a fair price. If that work means someone delivers you proper keyword research or a website or solid copywriting (ad copy you see online), they should deliver what you expect.

This is about putting your business on automated processes so you can expand your market reach. If that means managing multiple campaigns, let's include outsourcing as important help. Please don't expect to get it for free.

7.2 Automation

Getting computers to automatically complete key tasks in your online business.

7.3 Building Business Systems

Systemizing business tasks so that all management happens on auto-pilot.

7.4 Customer Service Systemization

Putting systems in place to manage customer support tasks. That doesn't mean you, the CEO, will ignore customer complaints.
