I’m sitting in the LA airport waiting on a flight to Seattle, then on home to Anchorage. Decided it’d be a good time to review what I implemented at ACLC. Why am I sharing this? First, because I’m just so darn excited about it all. Second, because I want you to know that if I can do this so can you.
• Announced a teleseminar to my current list
• Planned two additional teleseminar topics and wrote outlines
• Identified 5 business owners to request interviews with and sent invitations (4 responded with a “yes” within 24 hours)
• Mapped out a client survey to send to evaluate current business
• Emailed selected clients to request testimonials (received 2 back already)
• Formed a JV with another attendee to provide a service package together
• Identified additional ways to cut myself away from some time-draining aspects of my business
• Chose a topic for my first print book and started compiling content
• Brainstormed 40+ article/tip ideas to use for article marketing, ezines, etc.
• Had a huge “ah-ha” moment about my lists and what I was/wasn’t promoting that I really should be and took action to correct that quick
• Changed the name of a couple of freebies I offer that makes them much more enticing
• Identified a new niche I want to work with
• Chose a domain name and basic branding concepts
• Registered the domain name (I’ll tell you what it is soon ;) )
• Created the website with WordPress
• Developed three levels of service packages
• Developed a product funnel
• Planned out a free audio giveaway (outline and title)
• Setup an AWeber list and added it to the site
• Identified 2 resources I already have together that can be repacked and rebranded to sell on the new website
Worked on a few other things too that I’m not quite ready to share (I’ve got a full page of actions I completed). So many exciting things happening.

Sounds like it was a great seminar! I’m looking forward to seeing your new articles and directions that this may send you :)
Terri Zwierzynski says
Wow! What a great testimonial to Adam’s program…I knew he really rocked, this just amps up my admiration even more!
Of course, you especially rock for having done all that for yourself, too :)

It was awesome. I’ve got enough to do to keep me busy for months. :) One step at a time…
Rebekah Zobel Jones says
Michelle –
Congratulations again on so much implementation! I’m so proud of all you accomplished and I KNOW we’ll see great things coming. I’m so glad you came to ACLC this year and that it was such an awesome time of “Ah-Ha” moments! :-)
Hope to connect with you again soon!

Donna Kozik says
Wow — and I mean WOW! What a sense of accomplishment you must feel, Michelle! Good for you!
It’s interesting looking over your Action List and seeing a mix of things that all you had to do was “do” along with things that all you had to do was “get out of your own way” to do.
I look forward to seeing lots more from you in the future!
My best, Donna

Sounds like a great seminar! If you need a testimonial, I would love to give you one. Your service is amazing and I have nothing but good things to say about your business.
Shel Horowitz - Ethical/Green Marketing Expert says
You rock!
It’s so wonderful to see you coming into your own and to know that I had something to do with enabling that over the last ten years.
Bea says
WOW, Michelle, I need you on my team. Every time I talked to you at ACLC I was amazed at the energy and action you combine for a winning business. I don’t know how you do it all. I was real happy to connect with you and hope we’ll see each other or work together soon.
Candace says
WOW Michelle, you are going to be busy… good for you, because busy is good. You have given me a few excellent ideas to incorporate into my own business.

MichelleShaeffer says
Candace – Yes, busy is good! Well, busy with a plan anyway. ;)
Bea – It was wonderful to connect with you as well. Will keep in touch on Facebook.
Shel – Thanks, and definitely. I think I’ve learned more working with you than I would have in a college marketing degree.
Julie – I appreciate that. And you’re welcome to leave a testimonial any time. For hosting: http://creocommunico.com/got-something-to-say/575 Or on the Facebook fan page. :)
Donna – Yes, it does feel great. I’ll admit though, Sunday I was pretty sleepy (stayed up until 4:30am Saturday night working because I felt inspired). ACLC was the kick in the pants I needed to really get focused and moving forward in my business.
Rebekah – I’m really glad it worked out for me to go, too, and to get to connect with you and know you better.
