Jo Ann was referred to us by BlogAid to design a  WordPress customized theme on the Genesis framework capturing the illustrative elements of her children’s books.  Story Quest’s header is from Jo Ann’s Sunbelievable book cover! 

Sunbelievable is a humorous, educational/science children’s picture book about the Sun for ages 4-8 and was awarded the Mom’s Choice Award 2012 for Children’s Book Among Best In Family-Friendly Product.

The illustration style, using digital photo collage, features real children whose dialogue unfolds in brilliant, magical landscapes. An educational piece with facts about the real Sun is contributed by NASA’s Chief Technologist.

If you’re looking for a children’s book that makes learning about science and nature fun, Jo Ann’s books come highly recommended.

Over the past week I’ve had the opportunity to work with two fairly new business owners.  Both have had the idea for their businesses for a while now, both still work full-time jobs, and both have been circling around their idea for at least a year.  As I worked with both of them, I realized they shared some common issues that keep them talking but not acting.  Talking doesn’t create income.  See if you fall into one (or more) of these five traps.

1. Constantly scanning for information about your industry to the point that confusion and overwhelm stops decision-making.  In both cases this week the biz owners had read news articles and watched trends, which is a good thing up to a point.  The mistake they made was thinking that reading is going to give them a definitive answer about who their target market is.  It won’t.  You will read and read and read, and before long you’ll see that you can always find more articles to read and eventually one will contradict the other.  If this wasn’t true, stocks would be easy to pick right every time!  At some point entrepreneurs have to quit analyzing information and add in their own gut.  Business is part art, part science.  Don’t make the mistake of waiting to act until you get a definitive answer.  You’ll be waiting forever and someone else will go make the money you could have made!
2. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again – don’t resist niching your market.  Both these budding entrepreneurs wanted to keep their market way too broad, thinking they could then “catch more customers.”  But the opposite is true – the more specialized you are, the more you will call to the exact ideal customers you most want to serve.  Does this mean that if you work with men between 21-30 that have beards, and a guy calls you who has no beard you have to say no?  No!  You CAN work outside your niche but you shouldn’t waste time and money marketing outside your niche.
3. No concrete actions taking place for marketing.  In both cases I heard a lot of “I’ve been thinking about this” or “I’d like to do this but I’m not sure how.”  Both of these statements are a sure sign of confusion about who to market to.  If you truly have narrowed down your niche you will start automatically getting ideas and energy toward marketing.  Confusion in your mind will create confusion in a potential customer’s mind.  And as many people before me have said, “confused minds don’t buy.”
4. Both these entrepreneurs-to-be had massive anxiety.  Both wanted to “get everything right and not waste money.”  Here’s the deal - to be successful in a big way in business you WILL make mistakes and you WILL waste some money along the way.  It’s irrational to believe you won’t, so let that one go right now.  Being a business owner means living in imperfection.  If you have the perfectionist tendency going on then a major part of your work toward being successful as a business owner is to dial that down.  Otherwise, the constant anxiety you feel about “doing things right and not wasting money” will keep you from taking action other than a few very safe little things around the edges of your business.  And safe little things don’t give you profits.  You’ll be working that day job for the rest of your life.

I have some friends who are experts in LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and Blogging and they have come  together to form the Social Media Biz School (affiliate).

Each webinar will have some Q& A time so that you can get your questions answered live with the instructors.  Use this time to get specific tactics that you need.

After each webinar, you will have an action item for you to focus on each week to build your business providing tangible results.

School includes online forum to ask questions of the instructors, network with others to find out what’s working for them and share what’s working for you.  We have found these forums invaluable for making business connections.  

They are a safe, private space to get any question answered that you have been afraid to ask. You will get the latest information on changes to the platforms so you stay up to date!

You will have access to bonus content to use at your convenience.  Helpful, online content to really jump-start your social media efforts.  We will be adding to this content as school progresses.  And much more – get all the info here.
