Deranged Penguin

2010 is the year that we collectively work our asses off. Sound good? Post done.

Well, wait. I suppose that’s a bit over the top. Here’s what I mean: I’ve been noodling up to now. Not really persistently focusing on this project. There’s nothing wrong with that, unless you actually have expectations of results. At that point, you have to consider why your actions are not tailored to reach the results you’re interested in.

So 2010 is the year of crazy-seriousness here at Deranged Penguin. Each day is a chance to incrementally improve some aspect of the marketing empire, so I’m going to use Teux Deux to keep up on what I’m supposed to be working on. This is a new habit and will take some force to put into motion. But it’s worth it – much better than spinning wheels and assuming that you’re getting somewhere.

WordPress is the platform of choice for practically any project I think of, so why am I not formalizing and releasing my WP startup tricks into the wild? Good question. That’s going on the list. Expect to see it by the end of the first quarter.

I’m also going to dip a toe into pay per click, using Wealthy Affiliate’s resources and training to understand a lot more about that particular advertising medium.

And, as I posted over at the APS Forum, January is Consumer Focus Month! Time to spiff up the search engine and blog like hell over at SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Okay, Here’s the Plan:", url: "http://www.derangedpenguin.com/2010/01/05/okay-heres-the-plan/" });
