internet-marketing-trainingWhen you’re getting started with your internet marketing training, there’s an enormous amount of information and work to be done.  To help you sort it all out and make sense of things, try these basic tips for organizing  your work.

  • Focus on one thing. Don’t make yourself crazy by trying to learn SEO, PPC, social media, PPV, and email all at once.  You’ll slow down your progress and get very frustrated in the process.
  • Make a list. Never sit down to work without a brief list of what you hope to accomplish.  Unprepared work time is considerably less effective than time when you can focus and concentrate your efforts.
  • Avoid crutch tasks.  You don’t need to check your email 30 times daily.  You also don’t need to read Twitter and Facebook every 5 minutes.  Every 5-10 minutes, ask yourself if you’re really working and being productive, or if you’re just wasting time.
  • Make sure your sources are reliable.  Don’t fall into the trap of believing any random source you find online.  If you’re reading a blog or ebook and it goes against everything else you’ve known to work, get another opinion.
  • Limit your research and study time.  Action is far more important than research.

Even though a lot of this seems intuitive, it’s much harder to do in practice.  Giving real thought to your actions and work ethic will pay off, though.  History has shown repeatedly that laser-targeted focus combined with action is what it takes to achieve real success.
