Steps to Getting organised in your online business..

.
First decide exactly how many hours you will spend working on your business.

Make a list of all the tasks that you need to complete to get your business running steadily

Eg…
Blogs
Video
Articles
Advertising
Each of the above tasks can be split into smaller tasks to enable you to complete a full task without suffering with information overloaded.

.
First we need to set the tasks in order of priority

.
If your blog needs attention as in new content then this would fit into the priority “one” category.

Go through your list and allocate each of your tasks a priority from 0 – 3

Zero being something that you would like to do but it isn’t important in your business.

Once you have completed prioritising your list we will work with the tasks in the number 1 priority category as these are the tasks that you considered most important.

Re order your list so that all the number one tasks are at the top, number 2 tasks next, then the number 3 tasks, then lastly the tasks you labelled with a 0.

Prioritising your tasks will help you to see what is most important, what needs immediate attention and what can wait.

Work on the tasks with the number one priority first, if each of the tasks can be split into smaller chunks work with that.

Eg:-
1a)Blogs
1b) Keyword research
1c) Article
1d) An affiliate product to promote
1e) Plug ins

Above you will see an example of a main task…..Blogs……………….do you see how it can be broken down into smaller tasks, at each stage the smaller task can be completed, then you can move onto the next part of the task, after completing each smaller section of the main task you will have achieved your first goal, check off the completed tasks and at the end of the day you will feel satisfaction. Feeling success in what you have accomplished will keep you motivated.

Stay Focused
Work on what needs to be done first
Work SMART NOT HARD
Stay organised and stay on track
Don’t get distracted………………
Stick to your To Do List

read emails etc once you have completed your daily tasks.
Satisfaction will play a huge part in the way you feel about what you are working on.
