Back on Track!

Ah! I remembered to post on this blog today - that's 2 days in a row.  It's because I decided to get myself organised, and set up a routine.  However, it's easy to break a routine, so there's no telling how long this will last.

What have I done today?
 As I tend to write this blog at lunch time, I'm using "today" to mean "in the last 24 hours".

I planned to get my software product modifications done, but failed.  I was just too tired.  That's the problem with having a day-job as well as an online business.  The Day-job gets in the way.

I wrote a review of a product being sold on Clickbank and published it on one of my blogs - one that deals specifically with Clickbank and other affiliate marketing.

By the way, since I started posting at least once a week to that blog, traffic has increased by 2.5 times.  In fact today I got the same amount of traffic that I was getting before, but in the first 2 hours of the day.

I had another two ideas for software products.  I made quick notes of them, but really need to write down full specifications for them.

I thought of an excellent marketing strategy for one of my associates.  He has developed some software aimed at musicians, including a free demo version.  I suggested that he approaches some of the music magazines and offer his software for inclusion on the cover disc that comes free with the magazine.
The software has been "Squeezulated", so that it needs Registration.  This means that anyone who wants to run the software will have to sign up to his mailing list.  I wouldn't mind getting a large number of the readership of a magazine subscribing to my mailing lists.  That's what I would call laser-targeted sign-ups.

What Am I Planning To Do Today?
Hopefully, I'll be able to get my software product finished and issued.

I also plan to write some specifications for the software products that I thought of yesterday.
