Product Growth In Internet

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 05:52:00 +0000

The fourth step in selling products on the internet is to understand the price of the products we sell and the number of products sold within a certain time. Relations between them are usually referred to as product velocity. The more products we sell, the greater the velocity of his product. We can make the relationship between price and amount sold each week. Usually the greater the desire to sell in large quantities, then we must set a lower price, otherwise the higher the price that we set the less the amount of products we can sell. Average Sales Price can also be narrowed by stating in an item that contained the so-called Stock Keeping Unit (SKU), which is a term often used by retailers off-line to indicate a unique item in the inventory. For example, Seller A has three red shirt two sizes XL and L sizes are blue with no one fruit, then SKUnya only two, namely SKU1 is a red shirt (number 2) and SKU2 is a blue shirt (number 1) . Key concepts to be understood without the need to work on campaigns or do something special demand in the market or putting the various SKUs are fixed, will not alter the demand in period 30 days to 60 days. Another variable that works is the supply, then we must also control the supply, although this offer is also controlled by our competitors. This information is a weapon we can use to make important decisions based on our objectives. For example, Seller A sells 10 units of the SKU of each month at a price of $ 150. Seller A has a target to increase profits each month. SKU costs on the volume of 40 units costs $ 100, but if it can increase sales of more than 100 units per month, the cost drops to $ 85 SKUs. Then this information can be created various scenarios. The first scenario focuses on high margin, we sell at a price $ 150 sold 40 units at a cost of $ 100, then the gross margin ($ 150 - $ 100) x 40 = $ 2,000. The second scenario focuses on current margins, we are selling at a price $ 120 sold 80 units at a cost of $ 100, then the gross margin ($ 120 - $ 100) x 80 = $ 1600. The third scenario focuses on low margin, we sell with a price of $ 100 sold 160 units at a cost of $ 85, then the gross margin ($ 100 - $ 85) x 160 = $ 2,400. By understanding the speed of product / price, and testing enables us to get the approximate number of SKUs that we can sell and we expect vulume. By estimating the price and volume of products we will help engaged in preparing resources and be able to predict margin products that we get each month. If the product is not made by us, then we can negotiate the price with the source of our products with pricing based on sales volume.

POSITIONING STRATEGY

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 02:09:00 +0000

In the early 1970s, Jack Trout and All Ries put forward a positioning concept as the basis of a marketing strategy, and since then, the concept has become a popular basis for the development of a creative strategy. The general purpose of a positioning strategy is to make consumers have better images in their minds of products. The proper brand images that form in consumers’ minds from what they see, hear, smell, and feel can become the dominant factors that strongly influence them to make up their mind of doing something with the products. Normally such a concept is oriented towards market leaders. The company’s advantage of competing is that of communicating, so the problem of competing are that of communicating. As a matter of fact, a positioning strategy is a communication one.

Advertising is a form of the communication which, according to the recipient’s point of view, was built in a low award. If you succeed in advertising, you may be successful in a business, a religion, politics, or the other activities that require mass communication. Positioning, the simple concept that makes people face difficulties in understanding strengths, is a concept to change the authenticity of the ad. Positioning starts with products, goods, services, companies, or people, but it is not something you do towards products; however, it is something you do to prospective consumers’ minds, namely placing brand images on their minds, and it is not a matter of the product positioning that physically has something to do with products, and it is also wrong when positioning does not involve any changes, particularly on names, prices, and packaging rather than on the overall products. Basically, there are changes in the appearances that may be conducted with the aim of ensuring more valuable positions in the minds of prospective consumers. Positioning also constitutes the first thought designed to cope with a hearing problem in our society flooded with information. The only defense owned by a person in a society is a very simple idea. So, the best approach to be taken of someone in a society is a simple message. Like in minimalist architecture, in communication the less but the more accurate a thing is; the better. You have to sharpen the message to put in the mind of each consumer, as Jack Trout and Al Ries proposed that positioning is not done on products, but it is done against consumers’ minds; for example, “The Company for Women” is from Avon, “The Science of You” from the Pond’s Institute, “Passion for Beauty” from L’Oreal, “The Miracle of Science” from DuPont, “Life made smoother” from Teflon, “Get the feeling” from Toyota, “For Life” from Volvo, “Connecting People” from Nokia, “Good Food Good Life” from Nestle, “Being outstanding in Achievement” from Primagama, and “The College Where People Wear Ties” from STMIK AMIKOM.

The soul is part of a person who is not physical. involves the mind and personality, which disinonimkan with the spirit, mind, or the crew itself. Use of the term soul is more often associated with mundane compared to the soul. S personality include the physical and mental attitude. According to Professor Edwood Chapman, mental attitude is a way of communicating or expressing the mood or character to others. If our expression to others is positive, then we called a person a positive mental attitude. Conversely, if our expression to others is negative, then we called a person negative mental attitude. While enrteprenuer is a person who is able to create new businesses as well as creative and innovative by taking risks and uncertainty to achieve profitability and growth by identifying opportunitiesand threats and to combine it with the resources it has.
Thus, entrepreneurial spirit is the key to success in business. One entrepreneur who lives meonjol is a positive mental attitude. Positive mental attitude encourages us to persevere to achieve goals. When we fall to fall, then we can still say "Oh it's just a small stone stump. Our goal is not reached "we said in the liver. So we get back up. Soichiro Honda remained positive mental attitude, as the piston ring-shaped artificial rejected by Toyota and ridiculed the technicians. After the last two years, and fix weaknesses Toyota pistons were eventually accepted. Even when the factory was bombed twice and destroyed by an earthquake, he remained positive mental attitude to achieve his goal to continue to have a factory. Positive mental attitude encourages us to become more creative. Every thing we do not want to happen, with our positive mental attitude can still respond by looking for something behind it creatively. When students register Priamagama that only two people, creativity comes in the form of Security Strategy for Sustained. Similarly, when AMIKOM, students who sign up only 8 people, so I tried to find something beyond these difficulties. Dhuhur finished, suddenly appeared in my mind said "This place tie Lecture People." I made a spontaneous word slogan AMIKOM. A lot of my friends to question those words. "Students wanted to free her, really told to wear a tie" said my friends. "It is wearing tie salesman. Just replaced the slogan, Pak Yanto "said another friend of mine. I [Image][Image]continue to maintain this slogan bersikokoh until now. I contend that in most universities, the knowledge and skills honed in part. I think the mental attitude in advance exactly which sharpened. After students are given the Super Superior Training, students are required to wear a tie to maintain their performance. From my observations, serious student who wears a tie when the student proves they are more successful in the world of work than the student who wore a tie with just a half-half. Apparently ties affect their mental attitude. Slogan Place Lecture The tie is now embedded with STMIK AMIKOM Yogyakarta.Positive mental attitude is a mental attitude that must be owned by a successful businessman and a very powerful weapon for success.

Angry Holding Strategy

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 12:55:00 +0000

When I was a student, I entered the bookstore. I'll buy a pen with a few pens that I choose there. As soon as I pull a pen out of his place, another pen fell. I took the pen that fell, then returned to the original. The owner was angry with me. Finally I decided to not buying the pens and the store owner more upset, then I left the store. Since then I've never been back to the store, for fear that scolded again. Likewise, when I forgot to pay credit card bill one of the foreign banks, I was given a letter in an angry and uncomfortable, as if I as a customer who is not responsible. I immediately closed two credit cards from the bank. In case you already have a credit card is more than seven years and during that time I became a good customer. Since then I have promised myself to not have credit cards anymore, to keep me not to be treated like that again. Of this billing mistake according to me is very fatal.

Even so the marketing department that the foreign banks came to me again, I offer some suggestions to not repeat his mistakes. I only enough to become victims. Anger can make the customer leave the company and did not return. On thing to get a loyal customer is not easy. To get new customers who need various kinds of strategies because the competition is very competitive.
In the epic Ramayana, Ravana or Dasamuka is a wise king with ten heads on his shoulders. Despite such successes have killed his humility and kill a large number of virtues. Because of anger, she makes the mistake that caused an infinite loss for him and near him and he loved. Anger can defeat the policies of Ravana, which ended in a battle that killed many people and himself. Suppose that Ravana would restrain his anger and come to hear the story of Rama Rama side, bloodshed was not necessarily going to happen. But Ravana did not do that, because he felt he was more powerful, more powerful forces and armaments more complete, so he mengumbar anger .. Conversely Rama is a king who could hold his temper, even if only assisted with the monkey army persejantaan limited. .
According to Promod Batra in his book Born To Win, advocating for the learning of a match is simple. The lighter has a head, no brains. Therefore each small friction, the lighters immediately caught fire. We have a head, but we also have a brain. We do not need to fire a small beard just because of friction. By using the brain, we can help reduce anger and become stress-free. Because for every 10 minutes of anger, we lose 600 seconds of happiness. From Abu Darda ', "I said: O Messenger of Allah, show me a practice that put me in heaven." He said: "Do not get mad, you will enter Paradise."

Entrepreneurial Strategy Treasure force multiplying

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Sat, 22 May 2010 08:03:00 +0000

Entrepreneurial style to multiply the treasures of heaven with the rules in accordance with sharia. Al Maal (property) in Arabic means gold, silver and livestock. While according to Islamic terminology, al-Maal is anything that has value and should be used and its ownership was obtained in a manner consistent sharia. Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. in view of wealth to assert that essentially, the treasure belongs to God and man is empowered (mandate) to manage it properly. Humans do not have absolute power to the property and must spend of their wealth according to God's Sharia, such as in the Qur'an surat Al Hadiid verses 5-7: Unto Him is the kingdom of heaven and earth. And to Allah return all matters. It was he who put the night into day and put the day into the night. And He is Knower of all hearts. Believe in Allah and His Messenger, and spend most of your wealth which Allah has made you. But those who believe among you, and spend most of their wealth are those who believe. Similarly Quran surat Al Munaafiquun paragraph 7: They're the people who said (to the Ansar): "Do not give to people shopping (Muhajirin) in the Prophet that they may disperse (leave the Messenger of Allah) ". Whereas Allah belong the keys of the heavens and the earth, but the hypocrites do not understand.

To tuck pentunjuk treasure God gives to us, namely to multiply the wealth, if the property dinafkahkan in His way. In surah Al Baqarah verse 245: Who will lend to Allah a good loan, He will double the payments to him with a lot of double fold. And God collapses and enlarges (sustenance) and to Him will ye return. While in surah Al Baqarah verse 265: And the likeness of those who spend their wealth to seek for the pleasure of Allah and to strengthen their souls, like a garden located on the plateau, which doused by heavy rains, the vineyard produces fruit twice. If heavy rains do not water it, then light rain (even adequate). And Allah is Seer of what ye do. Similarly, in Al-Baqarah verse 261: Parable (living incurred by) those who spend their wealth in Allah's way is similar to a seed that grows seven ears, in every ear a hundred grains. Magnifies God (reward) for whom He wills. And Allah is All-Area (karuni Him), the Knower. In the letter Al Hadiid verse 11: "Who will lend to Allah a good loan, He will multiply (reply) loan for him and will get a lot of reward.". While in Al Hadiid paragraph 18: "Verily those who give alms, both men and women, and lend to Allah a good loan, He will double (paid) to them and for their reward." In the letter Al Lail paragraph 17-18: And shall be removed far the most pious person from hell. (They are) who spend their wealth (in the way of Allah) for cleaning.

MAKING CHANGES OR GOING BANKRUPT

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Fri, 21 May 2010 16:09:00 +0000

By M Suyanto

Companies must make changes in order to customize competitive environments. Technology, competitions, economic shocks, social changes, labor forces, and world politics are aspects that stimulate changes. Sophisticated information technology can change the way to enhance competitive advantage. The CEO of Unilever, Floris A. Maljers, said “The biggest challenge that companies face in globalization is the problem of limited human resources not capital”

According to Mark Ingebretsen in his book, Why Companies Fail, companies have to predict future trends by detecting trends that should they face if they want to continue to generate profits. In addition, the company must also design a way to adopt products and services for reaching the consumer group that has not been identified. The most important thing is that a company should be aware of the fact that large-scale change is a norm while the change that shakes the world is a new norm. Therefore, companies must direct the strategies for dealing with changes. Successful leaders act flexibly to cope with changes, and even the leaders should be pleased with the changes concerning themselves.

Most companies are going bankrupt because employees must always follow their employers who have never changed. According to Alfred D. Chandler, Jr., the historian, in his book, Strategy and Structure, the American companies that have got ahead made changes, especially in their management systems. Chandler examined four large American companies, namely General Electric, Du-Pont, Standard Oil company, and Exxon. The willingness to change from the CEOs of the four-companies has made them survive up to now.

Managerial styles cannot be separated from employees. According to Jack Welch, the CEO of General Electric, we’re risking something to our people, therefore we need to empower them, give them resources, and get them out of trouble by using their ways. Jack Welch spent half his time with his employees, trying to know them better, talking with them about the company’s problems, praising their best performance, and chiding their worst performance. He knows about 1000 employees who have good ideas and who have the responsibility for their work. Jack Welch’s personal approach to his employees has provided outstanding results for performance improvement. “When you win, we all win,” said Welch. Therefore, 27 000 employees of General Electric own shares. In 2001, General Electric was selected as “The Most Admired Company in the World” according to Fortune magazine.

“The two greatest corporate leaders of this century are Alfred Sloan from General Motors, and Jack Welch from General Electric. Welch could be bigger than both of them because he’s planning a new paradigm for the corporation, the model of which is used in 21st century”, said Noel Tichy from the University Michigan, the analyst of Welch’s managerial style. Then, will you make changes or become bankrupt?

Being Entrepreneurial Learning from Thamood

We can learn from Thamood entrepreneur. Thamood an ancient Arab people, either as a tribe or group who lived from 2300 BC to 200 BC. Although Thamood likely to come from South Arabia, a large group apparently moved towards the north at the beginning of the year, has traditionally occupied the slopes of Mount Athlab. The findings of the archaeologists, a number of rocks from the culture Thamood not only found on Mount Athlab, but also throughout the Arab Middle.

Based on the sources of the Qur'an, people Assyiria Notes and inscriptions in Greek temples from the West Sea in 169 AD Hijaz. Historical sources state that the person who called Thamud really exist. Community of al-Hijr contained in the Qur'an is considered the same as those Thamud. Other names people Thamud is Ashab al-Hijr. So, the word "Thamud" is the name of the person or people, while the city of al-Hijr is one of the city founded by this person. Explanation of the Greek geographers, Pliny agree with this opinion. Pliny wrote that Domatha and Hegra (corruption) are located in the residence Thamud and then create a city that is now Hijr. Hijr is a major point of trade, because in 1900 BC to 200 BC in touch with the Nabasia trade. The main products are Thamood glassware (pottery) a unique, high quality and have a high art as well as having the ability to produce in large quantities. Thamood products traded include frankincense, myrrh and spices from South Arabia. From the results provide a wealth of trade, enabling them to build palaces, houses and tombs carved in rock. The city is located 347 km north of Medina. In about 200 BC, the Nabasia replace Thamood conquered the city of Dedan (al-Ula) until Al Hijr (Madain Salih). Important archaeological site discovered in the town of Al Ula who had occupied until 1970, which is a pilot city of Islam that are recognized again in the 11th century AD. Khuraibah is a site Lihyanite Kingdom, contained a large number of tombs. Also found, Ikmah which is a river (wadi) in the stone inscriptions contain Lihyanite and Minea.

Also found relics of the Hijaz Railway Jalam used to transport pilgrims from Damascus to Medina. Al-Hijr is the valley where the mountains to fetch water Thamood Madain Saleh, so the city is also known as Madain Saleh (the city of Prophet Salih). The high plains of the valley lies the Al-Qura with the water flow through al'Ula a distance of 25 km from the north. The most famous ancient sources that give the stolen reference to the history kemanangan Thamud Babylonian King, Sargon II (8th century BC), who beat Thamud people in the Arab North. Greece also provides references that this person as "Tamudaei" or Thamud in writing Aristpteles, Ptolemy and Pliny. Thamood alive at the time of Prophet Saleh and Thamood for idolatry and became pemakmur the earth by doing the trade. Then Allah sent Prophet Salih to worship God to them. In the Qur'an surat Al A'raaf verse 73: And (We sent), to the Thamud their brother Salih. He said: "O my people, worship Allah, you have no other God in others. Indeed, there has come unto you a clear proof from your Lord. Camel of Allah is a sign for you, then let him eat in the earth of Allah and do not bother with any disorder, (which therefore) you will be overwritten painful torment. In a letter Huud verses 61-62: And to Thamood (We sent) their brother Salih. He said: "O my people, worship Allah, once again there is no god except He. He has created you from earth (ground) and make you the pemakmurnya, therefore ask forgiveness of Him, then repent to Him. Verily my Lord is very near (Mercy) again allow (the prayer of His servant).

Ways For Ordinary People Become Entrepreneurs

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Tue, 11 May 2010 03:53:00 +0000

After having a positive mental attitude as a foundation to become entrepreneurs, creating a dream and trying to pursue, take steps to get started business without money, knowing the secret or strategy catapulted the business, then the fifth step is to accept failure as a lesson. Failure is the label we often associate with an action not successful and so applied, these labels make we said to people who can not afford or people who failed. This lowered our spirits to be successful people. At the moment we are still small, the failure has no meaning, because we do not have the concept of "failure". If we had the concept of failure, then we will not able to speak, because we can only weep. When we want to drink mother's milk, so we just need to cry, mom we already know. When urinating, chills or hot enough to cry immediately responded by the people old. Start a word that is not clearly sliding from mouth, although it is unclear both our parents are not consider that a failure, even contrary is a success, they have been very pleased, so that finally we can talk.

Similarly from could only sleep supine, prone, sitting, crawling, walking exercise with innumerable falls. People around do not sneer when he fell, not insults when crying in pain, but embraced, kissed, cuddled nimang, entertain and motivate people to learn to walk back with difficulty, but finally we can walking. Had a little time, we have the concept of "failure" then we can never talking, walking, writing, reading and so forth. We are very fortunate and thankful to God have parents who do not teach the concept of "Failure" as a kid. Indeed, indeed failure was "no", there was just the result does not match what we want or failure just a feedback to reach success or failure is merely an information that we need and try to dig deep in order we can exploit to succeed. The experience taught me when I first sold kedondong by my grandmother, then I am selling kedodong leave early to school, then held a newspaper and the peddle at the top of the newspaper kedondong these. From 6am to 7am, when clocks school admission was rung, no one I bought kedondong. Then my merchandise is I pack, kedondong with newspapers as the base for sell, I include school backpacks. In the language us, no one to buy is a "failure", but actually provide feedback or information, not

There are bought kedodong in the morning, fearing kedodong eat if stomach pain or information that since early morning had breakfast, then it is stuffed and forth. When break time came, I held merchandise return. There are two little girls of my friend's classmate who bought kedondong, probably felt sorry for me. "How Yan cost?" They asked. "Five rupiah be three "I replied. "Diibuhi huh?" They ask additional. "Yes. Please "I replied. Two little girls

that's what I bought kedondong. From there, Yanto It no longer sells small kedodong in the morning, he eventually sell kedodong at noon or in the afternoon days. Likewise in the business world, we can also using concepts that do not recognize such failures during childhood, then God willing we will succeed in managing the business.

11 Time Management Tip - How I manage Work and Blog

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Tue, 11 May 2010 03:32:00 +0000

Part time Blogging is one of the most difficult thinks to do or rather difficult to manage specially when you have a family also to look around. I have a day job which takes away around 10 hours , stealing the time where I can be most effective. Even though it’s not easy but I do manage both of them along with preparing for interviews and keep upgrading myself.

This is one of the most common scenarios which is faced by many blogger. As a part of group writing, I would share my 11 tips which can help you to manage both work and blogging activities.

Maintain a Diary : Keep a diary where you can write your daily things I.e things to do, random ideas, quick notes. This will help you to save a lot of time and you will never scratch your head to think what you were thinking before.
Make a Schedule : When it comes to manage more than one thing, a smart schedule is the only way. Decide how much time you need to give to a particular thing and stick to it. It might be difficult initially but once you get into the flow, your productivity will increase.
Be Flexible: Sticking to a schedule does not mean you cant spare another minute extra. If you need to give some more time for a particular project go ahead. I had to change my timings depending on what kind of article I have to write and balance it out the other day.
Read More than staring at your blog stats: This is one of biggest mistake many bloggers are still making. Checking your stats is a good thinks but looking at it every 10 minutes is pretty bad. I realized this 3 months back. Read more articles and good blogs to understand what and how they do.Here is What I used to do every 20 minutes and spent 3 hrs , PLEASE DONT DO IT
1. Checking My Adsense Account.
2. Checking Analytics/ 103 Bees Stats.
3. Checking feedburner to see how many live hits I have.
4. Admiring how much money others are making and again checking my Adsense Earning
First Write Then Read what others wrote : If you get to learn something which is new to you , don’t try to find what others have written. There are 2 reasons why I am saying this, First if you read others article you will loose your creative thinking, Secondly you might drop the idea of even writing it thinking it will be considered as copying. NOPE, you are wrong there. There is always a chance that you will come up with better explanations. So write at least a draft post and then go for exploring more. This will always give you a boost. Research only if you are very doubtful.
Make Your own Bloggers Toolkit : There are many plugins, firefox extensions, feed readers and writing application which an help you write or manage your posts faster. Find out more about them, make a list which can be useful to you and use it.This can not only save a lot of time but also allow you to more productive.
Have a Blog Management Day: Nobody wants you to keep writing articles everyday and neither you will loose if you don’t write one day. Set aside one day like Sunday or Saturday where you can give a thought on
1. What I had been doing this week.?
2. Do I need to optimize or re-check my articles.?
3. Do I have any pending emails to be answered.?
4. How is my site stats doing ? Have I improved ?
5. Do I need to read more about SEO and Designs ?
6. What is my plan for the coming week ?
Have some time separate for Social Networks: Blogging is not just writing article , its like a life where you need to communicate. Participate in social network sites like Digg, stumble, delicious and others. This will not only increase your points on them but also allow you to see what kind of articles are selling hot.
Don’t waste your time on useless chatting : Networking is important but then nobody has time to waste. Its a bad habit of many people to waste time on chatting. Chat for fun but see what is important to you. Many people have suggested to at least turn your IM’s off when you are writing an article. It really helps
Don’t answer comments immediately unless… Its not necessary that you need to answer a comment immediately unless its really important. Readers are always important but then your are not always siting there 24 hrs. Best is to answer them together after you get some comments or may be after a day.
Make you own set of Time Management Scheme: What worked for me might work for you partially. So have your own set of rules which suits your work and environment but make it for sure. It will allow you to follow a self guideline of YES or NO.

So this is how I manage my blog and work. Many of them will be applicable to you and it rally helps. I had been following since 3 months now and Now I spend only 3 hrs on blogging. except Saturdays and Sunday.

Business development

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 08:55:00 +0000

In the field of commerce, the specialist area of business development comprises a number of techniques and responsibilities which aim at gaining new customers and at penetrating existing markets. Techniques used include:

* assessment of marketing opportunities and target markets
* intelligence gathering on customers and competitors
* generating leads for possible sales
* advising on, drafting and enforcing sales policies and processes
* follow-up sales activity
* formal proposal or presentation management and writing
* pitch and presentation rehearsals
* business model design

Business development involves evaluating a business and then realizing its full potential, using such tools as:

* marketing
* information management (sometimes conflated with knowledge management)
* customer service

Business development involves evaluating a business and then realizing its full potential, using such tools as:

* marketing
* information management (sometimes conflated with knowledge management)
* customer service

A sound organization aiming to withstand competitors never stops business development[citation needed], but engages in it as an ongoing process.

Successful business development often requires a multi-disciplinary approach beyond just "a sale to a customer". Some consultants[who?] frequently recommend a detailed strategy for growing a business in desirable ways, which may involve financial, legal and advertising skills. Business-development practitioners cannot reduce their activities to simple templates applicable to all or even most situations faced by real-world enterprises. Creativity in meeting new and unforeseen challenges may help sustainable growth.

Business-development roles may have one of two modes:

1. sales-oriented (client-facing); or
2. an operational function to support sales.

In a sales role, business development could concentrate on developing strategic-channel relationships or on general sales. This emerges from analysis of the varied job descriptions found in job-search engines, especially in the UK. In the US, the term "capture management" appears as an alternative job or role title, typically used when describing business development as an operational function to support the selling function of a company. The Association of Proposal Management have produced the Capture Management Lifecycle that describes the process in three broad stages:

1. pre-bid phase
2. bid phase
3. post-bid phase

Small to medium-sized companies often do not establish procedures for business development, instead relying on their existing contacts. Or people in such companies may assume that because they know people in high places that this will solve any business-development problems and that somehow new financial transactions will come to them. Such thinking can have significant ramifications if one cannot exploit those relationships, which very often[citation needed] remain personal or weak. Such a situation may result in no new sales in the pipeline.

Business-development professionals frequently have had earlier experience in financial services, investment banking or management consulting; although many find their route to this area by climbing the corporate ladder in functions such as operations management or sales. Skill-sets and experience for business-development specialists usually consist of a mixture of the following (depending on the business requirements):

* marketing
* legal
* strategy
* finance
* proposal management or capture management
* sales experience

The "pipeline" refers to flow of potential clients which a company has started developing. Business-development staff assign to each potential client in the pipeline a percent chance of success, with projected sales-volumes attached. Planners can use the weighted average of all the potential clients in the pipeline to project staffing to manage the new activity when finalized. Enterprises usually support pipelines with some kind of CRM (customer relationship management) tool or CRM-database, either web-based (such as the salesforce.com software-as-a-service solution) or an in-house system. Sometimes business development specialists manage and analyze the data to produce sales management information (MI). Such MI could include:

* reasons for wins/losses
* progress of opportunities in relation to the sales process
* conversion (win) rates
* top performing salespeople/sales channels
* sales of services/products

For larger and well-established companies, especially in technology-related industries, the term "business development" often refers to setting up and managing strategic relationships and alliances with other, third-party companies. In these instances the companies may leverage each others' expertise, technologies or other intellectual property to expand their capacities for identifying, researching, analyzing and bringing to market new businesses and new products, business-development focuses on implementation of the strategic business plan through equity financing, acquisition/divestiture of technologies, products, and companies, plus the establishment of strategic partnerships where appropriate.

Upcoming Blogger Conferences

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 07:56:00 +0000

WordCamp Dallas is later this month — March 29-30. Netconcepts’ own Chris Smith will be speaking on SEO for blogs. There’s a great lineup of speakers, including WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg. Registration is only $20. There’s no reason not to attend! Even if you blog on a different blog platform, you should still attend. The networking with fellow bloggers alone is worth the travel costs.

WordCamp Dallas is later this month — March 29-30. Netconcepts’ own Chris Smith will be speaking on SEO for blogs. There’s a great lineup of speakers, including WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg. Registration is only $20. There’s no reason not to attend! Even if you blog on a different blog platform, you should still attend. The networking with fellow bloggers alone is worth the travel costs. I speak from experience, having attended WordCamp in San Francisco last summer and I loved it.

Blog World Expo is another fabulous conference to attend. Their inaugural year was last year. It took place in Las Vegas and will be back in Vegas this year — September 20-21. At last year’s conference I spoke on an SEO panel with SEO gurus Aaron Wall, Andy Beal and Vanessa Fox. I stayed to the very end of the conference, and I was glad I did. I got to hear billionaire blogger Mark Cuban speak during the closing keynote of the conference.

Then there’s BlogHer 2008 — a conference for and about women bloggers, taking place July 18-20 in San Francisco. All the speakers are women. My 16-year-old daughter Chloe Spencer (the Neopets blogger) was privileged to speak on their Professional Blogging panel at BlogHer 2007. I attended last summer and really enjoyed it, even though I wasn’t the main intended audience (i.e. women bloggers).

One guy I spoke to during a cocktail reception at BlogHer last year told me that BlogHer was a great conference for single men like him to attend. He said it was “like shooting fish in a barrel.” Haha, I laughed when I heard him say that. Contrast that with WordCamp Dallas, which is projected to be 75% male.

Any other conferences for bloggers out there that I’ve missed?

Using Your Feed Reader to Generate More Traffic and New Business

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 20:09:00 +0000

Feed readers are tools that keep track of the blogs you have interest in. You may use your feed reader to keep track of competitor’s blogs or blogs that will notify you of trends or important news. Whichever blogs you choose to add, there are some great ways that you can make use of that blog traffic.

Here are some of the ways that to generate traffic to your blog.

Build a Network

When you’re reading other people’s blogs, you’ll develop a network of like-minded individuals and people who share similar interests. You can also meet people to provide your products and services to and you’ll find people who have products and services that you

Whichever blogs you choose to add, there are some great ways that you can make use of that blog traffic.

Here are some of the ways that to generate traffic to your blog.

Build a Network

When you’re reading other people’s blogs, you’ll develop a network of like-minded individuals and people who share similar interests. You can also meet people to provide your products and services to and you’ll find people who have products and services that you need.

The beauty of creating a network this way is that the more you are on other people’s blogs and commenting on their posts, the more traffic you will receive. The thing to remember is that people love to have visitors on their site and they want to know who those people are. If you’re commenting on posts they have written, you can bet that they are going to appreciate that and check out your site as well.

Do This!

Register a feed reader account at a website like Newsgator (www.newsgator.com) or Blog Lines (www.bloglines.com) and add some feeds from your favorite blogs. Now, spend about 1 to 2 hours per week reading your blog feeds and comment on posts that you feel you can provide valuable feedback on.

Create Links Back to Your Site

By commenting on other people’s blogs, you’re creating a search engine ranking fiesta and all roads lead back to you! Page rank is determined by a number of things but one of those things is how many incoming links you have to your website. The more links, the higher you rank.

One thing to keep in mind though is that a simple comment is not going to give you much back in terms of valuable traffic and notoriety. When posting comments and creating these links back to your site, you want to be sure there is some substance in your comments.

Another way to create links back to your site is to write great blog entries that people will want to post onto their blogs. In the world of blogging, people ‘copy’ content all of the time and link back to the original author. This allows you to have a viral marketing source and you won’t need to do anything to generate this traffic.

One last way to create links back to your site is to add your favorite bloggers to your “Blog Roll” and request that they add you to theirs. If you have a lot of colleagues, friends or family who also own blogs, ask them to also add you to their “Blog Rolls.” All of these incoming links will increase your traffic AND your page rank.

Do This!

Right now, go to your blog and create a “Blog Roll” if you don’t have one already. Add your favorite bloggers to this list. Next, ask your friends, family and colleagues to add you to their links list on their blogs. Make sure that whatever you do in terms of links, it is reciprocal so that both parties benefit.

There are many ways to generate traffic but those are just a couple of the ways to utilize the RSS feed reader tool that you have to stay in the line of sight of your potential customers (and ideal clients)

Five More Reasons You Need to Start Blogging Today

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 08:38:00 +0000

Back in December of 2007, I decided that I wanted to try something new and fresh with my website. I was also getting tired of the standard websites with their uniform look and I didn’t really feel like I was getting any benefit from it. So, I did a bit of research and decided that I wanted to try a blogging platform and after a bit more research, I chose Wordpress.

Before I fully converted to the blog, I was receiving approximately 900 unique visitors each month.

* By January, one month after I converted, I was receiving 1300 unique visitors.
* By February it had grown to 2500 unique visitors
* In March, it had grown to 4000 unique visitors in the month.

That is four times the traffic I started with!

So, let’s look at the top five reasons why you need a blog (in my biased opinion, WordPress is the way to go so I will reference WP throughout this post but you could use any blogging platform to achieve these same benefits…):

1. Blogs are User-Friendly and Very Easy to Use

The upside to having blog software as opposed to a website is that it is very user-friendly. The blog uses a GUI, or a graphic-user interface, which means that that everything that you may need to do is laid out in simple to understand graphics. The blogging software also conforms to the standards of most other software programs. For example, the graphic icons you see in Microsoft Office programs are very similar to the graphics you’ll see inside of your blog.

The reason that this is so important is that YOU can update your OWN website and you don’t need to pay high prices in web design fees to do so! There is no messing around with HTML code, you can avoid having a dull, lifeless site that people only visit occasionally and instead, you can update it yourself and give people a reason to return again and again and again.

The other upside to this is that when you want something changed quickly, you can do so. You no longer have to wait on a web designer or a virtual assistant, you can just pop in to the dashboard and update the page you need to make changes to and click save and boom – you’re done!

Making regular posts is also easy to do. In a few, short clicks and then some keystrokes for the body of your post, you can have fresh, new content on your blog immediately. If you’re feeling particularly creative one day, you can write a series of posts and save them all to post on future dates. For me, I will write eight or nine blog entries at a time and save them to post one or two days apart. This is also useful if you are going on vacation. In February, my husband and I went to the Dominican for a vacation and before I left, I wrote blog entries to cover the week I was gone and just posted them in advance. On the days that I specified, my blog entries showed up on the blog!

2. Blogs Are Easy to Navigate

All blogs follow a fairly standard style of formatting and navigation. Although each template may look different, they all contain the same standard elements. When I visit a blog, I always know where to go to see Recent Posts. I also know that on the majority of blogs, I will be able to find a place to subscribe to the blogs feed. A feed is simply a syndication of your blog entries. That syndicated text is then sent out to your blog visitors feed readers and is sent out to the search engines, etc. This is part of the reason that blogging is so powerful in getting people to your site.

Have you ever visited a website where every menu has been different and each sidebar contained different text depending on where you were on the website? Those types of websites are confusing and they don’t lead the website visitor where they should be going. With blogging software, it remains standard and is always updating itself. When you make a change on one sidebar, it automatically updates on every other sidebar which eliminates any sort of confusion for your website visitors.

A great book I want to recommend is Steve Krug’s “Don’t Make Me Think.” Even if you don’t design websites, you want to read this book. A lot of the reasons that I love blogs are outlined in his usability section. He references making websites more functional by following his principles but what is so great is that a blog already conforms to many of his standards.

3. People Can Subscribe to Your Blog and Stay Current

Now, I want to explain what RSS is first. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. What it is is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated digital content, such as blogs, news feeds or podcasts. People who are into blogging will use your RSS feed to do a few things:

* They may subscribe to receive a daily digest of new content. Think of how powerful this is in terms of keeping you in touch with your target market. If someone receives constant, updated messages from you, you are always in their line of sight and they will see what you are up to, new products or services you are launching and how much knowledge you have on your chosen subject.

* They may also add you to their feed reader. I have a program that I use called Feed Demon and this software program tracks all of the blogs I am interested in by capturing and updating the feed that comes from the blog. Each day I can open up this software program and have an instant summary of every blog I have subscribed to and I can review what it is people are talking about. This allows me to stay current without having a thousand bookmarks in my internet browser or trying to remember which blogs I liked to read. The same is true for your visitors. They want a quick, easy way to be reminded that you exist and that you are posting things that they want to know about.

Normal sites don’t do this for you unless you are putting out a monthly ezine that contains all of your business updates. By having the blog, you can nearly cut out the monthly ezine and just let the blog do the work for you!

4. Search Engines Love Them and They Are Content Managers

In fact, it’s so easy to build content on your blog that I have actually created info-products based on content I had blogged about over the past year. Info-products become simple to do because you aren’t creating fresh, new content each and every time. What you blog about could become an article which could turn into an e-book. Blogging gets you into the habit of writing and creating which then allows you to easily and effortlessly create info-products.

Your visitors will also love this because when they show up on your site looking for assistance in your chosen profession, they can find a whole archive of great content. Most of my blogging clients will archive their past newsletters or e-zines on their blogs so that their clients can read past issues without having to download PDFs or visit thirteen or fourteen different web pages.

Search engines love blogs for a number of reasons. Number one, they love the fact that fresh, new content is being posted all of the time. Even if you are only updating it once a week, you will still see the benefits from it. Each and every time you post something to your blog, the search engines are automatically pinged and if you have pinging software installed, which is free and simple to use, it’ll automatically ping the different services that should be pinged.

Number two, search engines love hyperlinks and trackbacks. Hyperlinks are links to other people’s websites, blog entries, audio files, etc. and track backs are special links from someone else’s blog entry that let the other person know you’ve blogged about him or her. It also posts YOUR entry on their site for other people to read. This is how blogging also becomes so viral.

5. They Become an Active Networking Source for Your Business

For me, I have met a number of brand new people through my blog. Some of these people became clients, others were just frequent readers that became friends and others asked me to collaborate with them on special projects. By having a blog, you can become a place where people visit to learn about what it is you are writing about but also so that they can meet you, get to know you and someday work with you. You can build a community and allow other people to meet through you which then allows people to talk about you and get your name out there.

If you think of standard networking, you think of people showing up to an event for about an hour, rushing through the crowds trying to get business cards and then leaving the event and never really having a true feeling of connection. I’m sure we’ve all experienced this. Blogging gives your interested parties a place to come to learn about you. They can start to see how you both would benefit from knowing each other and they will be more apt to approach you over time. This is a much more effective way to network and you don’t need to worry about your business card being thrown in the trash.

Another way that it becomes a networking tool is when you reach out to other people’s blogs. Once you start blogging, you will quickly realize that the whole world is blogging and there are many great things to be read. By visiting other people’s blogs and leaving comments on their posts, you will do two things: one, you will introduce yourself in a non-threatening or non-imposing way to someone you may not have wanted to just e-mail in the past and two, by showing that you have interest in that subject on their blog, you’ll gain interested visitors who share similar interests.

Starting Business Law

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 17:46:00 +0000

This is a story of a university rector of the leading computer

When I return home, on the day of Idul Fitri my friend for me, that he will aspire to become entrepreneurs (Entrepreneurs). A year later I met my friend again, and then I asked "What is so businessmen." He said "not yet, I have my capital (capital)." Nevertheless, he still aspire to be entrepreneurs. On the day of Eid ul-Fitr next I met my friend again, and the iapun not become entrepreneurs. I remember the story hehe. He said in front of the King Aaron Ar-Rashid that he will be flying. Hehe hear the word of the King Aaron Ar-Rasid said in his heart "So this is my opportunity to defeat hehe." Then Aaron King Ar-Rashid said, "O hehe. What was katamu? ". "Sorry, the King, when the stage gave me a high, the servants will be flying from the stage" said hehe. "Let hehe, I will make a higher stage, but after the Friday prayer front of you should have been preparing to fly" said the King should be Ar-Rashid. "The servant ready to" answer hehe. A week later, after the Friday prayer, people have gathered in the plaza to witness hehe will be flying.

Hehe wait to be king of the Ar-Rashid under the stage around the tower 12 meters high. Shortly Aaron King and the Ar-Rashid arrived in the plaza that dielu welcome by the people, then approached hehe. "You are ready Abu?" Ask Aaron King. "It is the" responsibility hehe. Hehe then climb the stage to the high above. Then he was greeted with a standing-please please panic, "How hehe flying from the stage without bringing any equipment.

Learning From Business Blogging Mistakes

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 04:03:00 +0000

With as many right things you can do with a blog to make it successful, there are nearly as many things you can do wrong. Below are 3 common mistakes companies make with corporate blogs, why they make them and what you can do to avoid them.

Mistake Number One: Not Setting Goals
Many business blogs are started without specific goals. Blog software is typically so easy to install and setup that the number of new blogs has been overwhelming, making it difficult for any one blog to stand out.

Identifying the purpose of the blog is as important as researching similar blogs and the communities they are involved with. The networks of users associated with blogs similar in purpose and content to your own should match the blog’s target audience.

Mistake Number Two: Not Keeping Control
Since many companies start blogs as an experiment, they often are not taken as seriously. As a result, third party blog hosting platform and url are often used such as companyname.blogspot.com, companyname.wordpress.com or companyname.typepad.com.

Why shouldn’t you host your blog using a third party domain name? First, you have no control. If you want to change blogging platforms, there is typically no reasonable way to redirect traffic from the old blog to the new address in a search engine friendly way.
Mistake Number Three: Not Sourcing Content
The excitement and promise from starting a corporate blog can often become a case of overenthusiasm when it comes to writing content. Most people are hard pressed to write good emails, let alone 400 word blog posts. Writing original content every day or at least a few times a week can become near impossible if plans are not made editorially and for sourcing content within the organization.

Obviously there are many more mistakes companies make with corporate blogs ranging from not optimizing blog templates and posts to inconsistent posting to a lack of metrics. We’ll save those for another “Business Blog Mistakes” post version 2.0. Companies that want to avoid making business blogging mistakes can hire a blog consultant like the folks at TopRank or any of the contributors listed in the left side bar of Business Blog Consulting.

Conducting business with a pleated profit

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 06:18:00 +0000

To benefit many more done by empowering the income and expenses. Because the formula is the income benefits reduced cost. The first step is done with income menggenjot do with aggressive marketing. Revenue is the multiplication of the price with the volume of sales. Various marketing strategies used to increase the volume of sales, from the cost leadership strategy in a holistic strategy to differentiation. Not enough with that strategy, plus more focus, focus on the leadership of both costs and focus extensively on differentiation. Cost leadership strategy in a holistic weight advantages compared to competitors and price differentiation strategies on the benefits of the product, personnel, services, channels and the image compared to competitors.

Meanwhile, to reduce costs by making efficiency soundly in all lines. Sometimes even lines on the development of human resources, facilities such as education, training, health benefits and trimmed out. But thus trimming the cost of the development of human resources that the company is dropping, because the effect on the company’s overall revenue. This caused the fall of the business to employees.
There are other ways to increase profits, which folded as the Ali bin Abi Talib. “O noble woman, whether you have something that can be eaten by your husband?” Question Ali to his wife, Fatimah . “By Allah I do not have something a bit, however, this money Dirham 6 from the results of wage twist hair. Money will I buy food for Hasan and Husayn “Fatimah responsibility. “O noble woman who, given money to me is Dirham 6″ said Ali. Fatima give Dirham 6 money to Ali bin Abi Talib. After the money is received, Ali outside the house with the intention to buy food for both his sons. Suddenly in the middle of the road he met a man that said “Who would lend to Allah, The Controlling Dzat and surely Allah will fulfill his promise.” Ali eventually approach the person with the money Dirham 6 under a bit of home to buy food for their children. After the money was given Ali, he went home.
When Fatima knows her husband to return home without bringing any food, he continued to cry. See his wife crying, Ali directly asked “O noble woman, what you crying?”. “O son of Messenger of Allah uncle, I see you bring home with no food” Fatimah responsibility. “O noble woman, I have Dirham 6 currency debt was to God” said Ali. “If you do, that I agree” said Fatimah.
Then Ali bin Abi Talib out trying to place the Messenger of Allah, suddenly in the middle of the road he met a Bedouin who are guided camel. Ali then approached the Bedouin, the Bedouin said “Hasan’s Father, buy this camel.” “I do not have the money to buy your camel and fully that you” said Ali. Bedouin: “I sell a camel is paid by then.” Ali: “If so, how much of this camel you selling?”. Bedouin: “I sell it with the price of Dirham 100.” Ali: “OK, I bought this camel, but only after the payment later if I get the money.”
After the Ali bin Abi Talib lead a camel the new purchasing. But not so much by Ali to face a Bedouin others, who asked him “Hasan’s Father, whether you want to sell your camel?”. Ali: “True, I want to sell this camel.” Bedouin: “How much does it cost?”. Ali: “The price of camel is Dirham300.” Bedouin: “OK, I buy your camel with the price.”
After the Bedouin to approve the price, he immediately pay Dirham 300 in cash to Ali. After receiving the payment, Ali control of the she-camel to the Bedouin was. Then he returned to his home. Fatimah know when her husband came, he with the smile of love saying, as practices that do every time he welcomed the advent of her husband. Fatimah then asked him “Father of Hasan, what you take today?”. “O daughter of the Prophet Muhammad, I have to buy an animal with a camel with the payment later, Dirham 100. Then I sell the camel with the price of Dirham 300 in cash “replied Ali. “I agree only on what you do, provided that bring death and improvement” said Fatimah.
After chatting with Fatimah is enough, he went out again to the right Messenger. At the time he entered the door of the mosque Prophet with a smile and see when Ali is near, he said, “Father Moore, whether you talked to me that, or I give the news to you?”. “You just give the news to me,” replied Ali. The Messenger of Allah said, “Father Moore, whether you already understand, is actually a Bedouin camel to sell it, and both the Bedouin who buy?”. Ali: “Allah and His Messenger know better.” Messenger: “Lucky once you are lucky … … … … … …. Lucky … … … O Ali, you have trust with 6 Dirham God, Allah give you Dirham 300 as a substitute for every Dirham get Dirham 50. The Bedouin are the first Gabriel, while the second is Israfil. ” According to the history of other states that the first person to sell the camel is Gabriel, while the second is Michael.

Kenapa Blogger Dicap Pengecut dan Penipu?

Kenapa Ahmad Dhani sempat berujar bahwa “Internet adalah dunianya orang yang pengecut”? Kenapa pula Roy Suryo menuduh blogger sebagai penipu? Kita bisa saja bertanya langsung kepada kedua figur publik itu, dan mereka akan menjawab sesuai dengan latar belakang dan pengetahuan mereka masing-masing.

Dhani, sang pentolan kelompok musik Dewa, kemungkinan besar mengaitkannya dengan blog Maia, istri sahnya hingga kini, yang lebih banyak curhat masalah pribadinya di blog. Bisa jadi, Dhani merasa jengah dan bertanya-tanya, kenapa curhat Maia tidak disampaikan langsung ke dia saja?

Roy, pada sisi lain, merasa dijadikan korban oleh banyak blogger yang mencatut namanya, membuat blog atas namanya, membuat profil friendster atas namanya, dan menjelek-jelekkan dirinya di alam maya. Bisa jadi, pembaca acara e-Life Style di MetroTV ini belum pernah/sempat blogwalking sehingga tidak menemukan ratusan (ya, ratusan) blog yang begitu inspiratif semacam Imam Brotoseno, Perspektif Wimar Witoelar, Strategi Manajemen Yodhia Antariksa, Roni Yuzirman, atau Bangsari yang menggalang kambing melalui blog untuk pendidikan anak tak mampu.

Sahkah mereka beranggapan seperti itu? Menurut saya, sah-sah saja. Itu alasan kontekstual yang masuk akal. Salahkah pandangan mereka? Tentu saja menurut saya, itu salah, karena pandangan mereka yang parsial itu dipakai untuk memotret yang utuh. Secara keseluruhan blogger bukanlah pengecut. Bukan pula penipu. Bahwasanya ada blogger yang penipu atau pengecut atau bercitra negatif lain (seperti tukang copy paste), itu tidak perlu dipungkiri. Tapi, itu tidak berarti semua blogger penipu/pengecut.

Sebagai seorang blogger (meski lebih banyak sebagai korporat yang tidak terkena tudingan itu), saya justru melihat tudingan kedua figur publik itu sebagai awal untuk mulai pembentukan citra blog di mata masyarakat. Bagaimana pun kelirunya pandangan Dani dan Roy, pendapat mereka disantap oleh publik. Kalau opini mereka diserap mentah-mentah, maka akan sulit memperbaiki citra blogger.

Maka, pandangan salah itu mesti diluruskan.

Untuk tahap awal saya mengusulkan, praktik-praktik mulia para blogger didokumentasikan menjadi semacam kode etik blogger. Jika banyak profesi dan pehobi sudah punya kode etik yang menjadi acuan anggota atau penggembiranya, maka para blogger ini sudah pada saatnya membentuk acuan yang serupa. Acuan ini kemudian dipublikasikan di setiap blog.

Memang akan menjadi pertanyaan, siapa yang akan membuat ini?
Bukankah belum ada organisasi para blogger? Lagi pula, memangnya blogger mau serius membentuk organisasi?
Lalu siapa pula yang akan menegur blogger jike mereka keluar dari acuan?

Untuk pertanyaan yang pertama, saya akan coba kumpulkan beberapa blogger untuk membicarakan hal ini. Atau, kalau tidak sempat karena kesibukan para blogger, saya akan tuliskan di postingan berikutnya mengenai praktik-praktik para blogger yang bisa saja diperbaiki oleh blogger lainnya.

Pertanyaan berikutnya, biarlah menjadi pekerjaan rumah nanti.

11 Time Management Tip - How I manage Work and Blog

noreply@blogger.com (deF_Jam) — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 04:10:00 +0000

This is one of the most common scenarios which is faced by many blogger. As a part of group writing, I would share my 11 tips which can help you to manage both work and blogging activities.

Maintain a Diary : Keep a diary where you can write your daily things I.e things to do, random ideas, quick notes. This will help you to save a lot of time and you will never scratch your head to think what you were thinking before.
Make a Schedule : When it comes to manage more than one thing, a smart schedule is the only way. Decide how much time you need to give to a particular thing and stick to it. It might be difficult initially but once you get into the flow, your productivity will increase.
Be Flexible: Sticking to a schedule does not mean you cant spare another minute extra. If you need to give some more time for a particular project go ahead. I had to change my timings depending on what kind of article I have to write and balance it out the other day.
Read More than staring at your blog stats: This is one of biggest mistake many bloggers are still making. Checking your stats is a good thinks but looking at it every 10 minutes is pretty bad. I realized this 3 months back. Read more articles and good blogs to understand what and how they do.Here is What I used to do every 20 minutes and spent 3 hrs , PLEASE DONT DO IT
1. Checking My Adsense Account.
2. Checking Analytics/ 103 Bees Stats.
3. Checking feedburner to see how many live hits I have.
4. Admiring how much money others are making and again checking my Adsense Earning
First Write Then Read what others wrote : If you get to learn something which is new to you , don’t try to find what others have written. There are 2 reasons why I am saying this, First if you read others article you will loose your creative thinking, Secondly you might drop the idea of even writing it thinking it will be considered as copying. NOPE, you are wrong there. There is always a chance that you will come up with better explanations. So write at least a draft post and then go for exploring more. This will always give you a boost. Research only if you are very doubtful.
Make Your own Bloggers Toolkit : There are many plugins, firefox extensions, feed readers and writing application which an help you write or manage your posts faster. Find out more about them, make a list which can be useful to you and use it.This can not only save a lot of time but also allow you to more productive.
Have a Blog Management Day: Nobody wants you to keep writing articles everyday and neither you will loose if you don’t write one day. Set aside one day like Sunday or Saturday where you can give a thought on
1. What I had been doing this week.?
2. Do I need to optimize or re-check my articles.?
3. Do I have any pending emails to be answered.?
4. How is my site stats doing ? Have I improved ?
5. Do I need to read more about SEO and Designs ?
6. What is my plan for the coming week ?
Have some time separate for Social Networks: Blogging is not just writing article , its like a life where you need to communicate. Participate in social network sites like Digg, stumble, delicious and others. This will not only increase your points on them but also allow you to see what kind of articles are selling hot.
Don’t waste your time on useless chatting : Networking is important but then nobody has time to waste. Its a bad habit of many people to waste time on chatting. Chat for fun but see what is important to you. Many people have suggested to at least turn your IM’s off when you are writing an article. It really helps
Don’t answer comments immediately unless… Its not necessary that you need to answer a comment immediately unless its really important. Readers are always important but then your are not always siting there 24 hrs. Best is to answer them together after you get some comments or may be after a day.
Make you own set of Time Management Scheme: What worked for me might work for you partially. So have your own set of rules which suits your work and environment but make it for sure. It will allow you to follow a self guideline of YES or NO.
