Promoting Your Small Business

Getting the Drive to do it

Sometimes, it is truly tough to motivate yourself when you work from home. The majority of days I do not have an issue getting all of my work finished and keeping on task, yet recently I have found myself procrastinating a good deal.

I personally believe it has to do with the fact that while my Wrap Bracelet online business is profitable, I’m not really challenged sufficiently by it. Don’t get me wrong I have got a lot of tasks that I could be doing, but it’s the stuff that I find to be really monotonous and tedious. One example is marketing, I don’t like online marketing, nothing and I mean absolutely nothing about advertising myself or my Bracelets is attractive to me. I know this is a bad attitude to have, and I have made an effort to put a positive spin on it but when I sit down to get a game plan together my mind goes blank and I find something different to do. I am aware I’d generate a lot more profit if I decide to put even a tenth of the effort into online marketing. The outcomes are not always instantaneous, like when I make a new bracelet. So I feel like anything that I do does not work.

I’ve got to find ways to market my bracelets because I am quite pleased with the work I do, and I really want people to see all of the thought and care that I put in my wrap bracelets. I want them to enjoy wearing them as much as I love making them. To help motivate myself I am going to teach myself a different bracelet making process. It will offer my customers more options and styles to select from. As a bonus maybe it’ll get me fired up enough to advertise them using the many advertising abilities that I possess, but up to this point refuse to actually put into practice. Come to think of it, even crafting this post regarding my awesome procrastinating skills has stimulated me a little bit.
