Your excitement about the new venture can overpower any thought about the multitude of ways your product and/or services can be shared with the world.
The truth is – unless you’re an experienced marketer, it’s very easy to miss key practices when it comes to your content marketing strategy. And missing these things could mean missing opportunities and sales.

However, procrastination doesn’t move your business forward…
Rather than getting frustrated with yourself, I recommend trying out a productivity and time management ‘hack’ called ‘The Pomodoro Technique’. Also known as ‘The Pomodoro Method’.
You might have heard of it. Or maybe it’s a brand new concept for you.
Either way, I highly recommend trying The Pomodoro Technique to increase your productivity in just 25 minute blocks. I’ve personally benefited from this strategy and I think you will too.

The short answer is – YES!
Just the other day, a close business owner friend exclaimed “Blogging feels dated to me – like 2010s. Everyone is talking about social media content now. So blogging feels like old news…My brain thinks blogging is only relevant to those who have SEO requirements to meet.”

Do you choose a ‘word for the year?’ It’s something I’ve personally done for a few years now - rather than create a bunch of New Year’s resolutions that are already forgotten by Australia Day.
(That’s 26th January for my overseas listeners…)
The process of choosing a word helps you focus on the goals and actions you want to work on for the next year. It also helps you determine your priorities, like whether you will concentrate on family, personal growth, career, etc.2023-01-0518 minThe Leanne Shelton PodcastEp 146 - Leanne Shelton: Things Take TimeIf you’re like me, you’re probably keen to see results straightaway.

Especially in business.

Now I love listening to podcasts - and when I find a good one, I binge on it.

Yes, I'm still doing the copywriting stuff - along with the help from other high-quality copywriters - but I'm keen to put more weight behind the strategy side of things.
Because if you don't have a marketing strategy in place before seeking assistance from a copywriter for your website copy, blogs, email sequences, whatever - you're at risk of purely ticking a box and not actually achieving what you set out to do.
And that's attracting and retaining more clients, right?

You could write them down in your journal or on a whiteboard - and look at them regularly.
You could tell the world - because you know it will be embarrassing to admit you didn't achieve them.
Another way to keep yourself accountable is to have an accountability buddy.
What's that, Leanne? I'm glad you asked!
An accountability buddy is someone you keep in touch with to share your aspirations, ask for advice, celebrate wins, and support your failures - or learnings as I like to call them.
