We just had spring clean-up in my neighbourhood.
Driving around the subdivision, I saw tons of people’s crap left at the end of their driveways.
Old TVs, broken chairs, desks and other stuff that looked like Homer Simpson tried to put it together and finally gave up.
(Full disclosure: I suck at assembling furniture and usually opt to buy pieces that are already assembled).
Seeing all that junk got me thinking about online businesses, and how much junk is inside most of them.
People are being told by “experts” that they have to do 100 different things at once, instead of doing what they should be doing: a couple revenue-generating tasks that they do very well (and enjoy).
So instead of focusing on those few actions, they scatter their attention all over the place – and allow other bright shiny objects to invade their businesses.
I have just a few big things that generate business for me (podcasting, email and my Facebook group). If I’m doing those three consistently, I know I’ll be ok.
I throw the rest of the stuff out at the end of my driveway for the garbageman to pick up (figuratively).
If your business isn’t firing on all cylinders, have a close look at what you’re focusing on and do a little “spring cleaning” to make space for important things.
