Right now I'm really just trying to build content. I'm trying to make video tutorials as my students are going through them. This helps me to see how they need to be improved before I put them on the market for profit. For the most part my tutorials are doing very well. My feedback from the students is quite positive. They really like these tutorials and they really like that they can work at their own pace. Which is going to be part of my sales pitch.
I am just not sure if it is beneficial for me to be working on a blog or Pinterest or Facebook or setting up the website until I actually have a product. But I do like to think about the different things that I want to do. I'm just afraid that I won't have the time to develop all the little nuances of owning an online business.
The nice thing about this new business idea that I have is that I am actually using my product right now with my high school students. I'm scared to try yet another online business venture since all my previous ones have ended poorly. But...if I don't try it then I'll never know.
I need to set goals for this business but also for my life, at least this season of my life, to help me organize my time; to help me decide what's important enough to throw my energy into and what I can eliminate from my day. I have goals that I set for the year already and I'm not doing too bad with them. I've already read a book, I have been flossing almost every day, Brian and I met with a young couple last week (we want to do that every month), and I even met a goal for my business to record a video.
I wonder if I ought to set more goals for my business. I guess for now I can't do much more than build content. Perhaps my first goal ought to be to have a class completely set up. And what content I plan to provide. Maybe it should just be the sample lesson plan that I plan to give away.
