What am I talking about? Marketing and networking of course! In order for a business to grow, we need clients, if we don’t market our services and network with others; we’re not going to accomplish that.

So I decided on this little idea, that I’m sure isn’t original, but it just might work for me. I’ve got this huge bulletin board that I’m going to put up right where I can see it everyday and am using post-it notes to ask myself short little questions like this:

• Did you contact a least 2 new potential clients or referral partners this week?
• Did you comment on someone else’s blog this week?
• Did you go to a networking event this week?
• Did you spend an hour researching leads this week?
• Did I write in my success journal yet today?
• Did you read and contribute to your favorite forum?

This also goes along with the Get Clients Now program that I’ve been using to get my marketing butt in gear! Knowing myself, seeing these reminders everyday should help me keep on track. Also on my board will be a list of weekly and monthly goals, my To Do list, a calendar of personal and business appointments for the week, and my never ending grocery list!

What would you put on your reminder board? Do you think post-it notes will work? Or will they end up taking over my life?
