Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.comToday, July 1, the second annual Summer Contest got underway at the
PIPS Power Group (PPG). The PPG is an online membership site offering a wide variety of marketing information, resources and personal mentorship from experienced members of the
Plug-In Profit Site (PIPS) marketing group.
The primary purpose of the Summer Contest is to make PPG members aware of a particular list of best marketing practices and encourage them to develop daily habits of applying those best practices. Beyond awareness and skill-development, the ultimate goal is to help each contest participant advance their
home based Internet business and increase their sales.
In launching the annual contest, one thing that our PPG mentors have emphasized is the fact that the contest is not a race: it's not how fast we achieve the contest requirements, rather it's how consistent our efforts are and how we stay focused and committed until the contest ends.
Also, our progress will be measured in a couple of specific areas. For example, the progress of our Alexa Ranking will be monitored throughout the contest as will the development of our Yahoo! inlinks (backlinks).
To remain in the running for the prizes we need only work steadily on the list of tasks, submit daily reports of our efforts ... and stick it out to the end.
What I like best about this contest is that the playing field is level. The tasks to be done and the process of measuring progress are designed to give each participant an equal chance. There is enough variety to compensate for the fact that different people have different skill levels and different areas of expertise.
The other thing I particularly like about this contest is that even though there are prizes to be won, everybody wins simply by participating. As mentioned, one object of the contest is to help PPG members improve their marketing habits and increase their marketing success. Every task a participant completes serves to promote and improve their home based business in some way.
One of the strengths of this contest is the simple fact that it is not a race, it is a marathon. And that is the best model I can think of for any home based web biz.
In tomorrow's blog post, I will share a story about a local woman who was in a relay race recently and how her focus, commitment and determination can be inspiring to us all.
For now, remember that when building your
home based Internet business, speed vs. stamina should be taken into account when making plans and setting goals.
Sincerely, GT Bulmer
