90 Day Year from Todd Herman
1 too many hats…
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by all of the responsibilities, tasks and skills you have to develop as an entrepreneur…you’re not alone! When you think about all of the activities that have to happen inside of a business, it’s completely overwhelming!
Here are just a few: Marketing, Finance, Legal, HR, Sales, Operations, Product Development, Service Delivery Etc.
Those realities don’t change whether you’re a solo-entrepreneur or a big corporation.
Heck, just inside of the world of marketing, there’s: Lead Generation, Lead Conversion, Promotions, Graphic Design, Brand Design, Referral Management, SEO, Video, Podcasting, Infographics, Market Research and on and on…
And the moment that we become an entrepreneur we begin to put on all of those hats and get caught in a tornado of uncertainty (am I doing the right thing? what should I focus on? where should I spend the little money I have?)…
It’s no wonder we have such tremendous respect for entrepreneurs! Anyone else looks at that and says, “that’s crazy!” You say… “I’m in!”
2 wheel spinning…
Anybody that’s driven a car across slippery ice or been stuck in the mud spinning their wheels, knows that pressing down on the gas pedal doesn’t translate into getting more traction from your tires.
Well in the world of the business owner and entrepreneur, the slippery ice is the illusion of a new opportunity or ‘shiny object’ and the sticky mud is getting bogged down with too many projects with none getting completed.
And you know what other people tell you to do… Work harder!
Well that’s just pressing the gas pedal down harder and we end up burned out.
Entrepreneurs in 2015 need to get TRACTION and learn to work differently because the opportunities and distractions are only going to multiply! The world is definitely not slowing down…
3 guessology…
Every entrepreneur is also a creator. It’s in our DNA. But it’s our blind belief in our ideas that can also be our downfall.
Too many entrepreneurs believe so passionately in their idea. They start to build a business around it; investing money, time and emotion. But they’re still just operating from a Guess!
They get so blinded by their own idea they fail to do their research, talk to potential customers and get some data on the demand for their fantastic idea.
Simply, making a small change in their approach would save them from the pain of lost money, lost time and lost confidence.
The biggest of them all though is lost time, which turns into lost opportunity.

Digital marketing is the component of marketing that utilizes internet and online based digital technologies such as desktop computers,
mobile phones and other digital media and platforms to promote products and services. Its development during the 1990s and 2000s,
changed the way brands and businesses use technology for marketing. As digital platforms became increasingly incorporated into marketing plans and everyday life,
and as people increasingly use digital devices instead of visiting physical shops, digital marketing campaigns have become prevalent,
employing combinations of search engine optimization (SEO), search engine marketing (SEM), content marketing, influencer marketing, content automation,
campaign marketing, data-driven marketing, e-commerce marketing, social media marketing, social media optimization, e-mail direct marketing, display advertising,
e–books, and optical disks and games have become commonplace. Digital marketing extends to non-Internet channels that provide digital media, such as television,
mobile phones (SMS and MMS), callback, and on-hold mobile ring tones. The extension to non-Internet channels differentiates digital marketing from online marketing.
