What are your business goals for 2013

by Steve Fitzpatrick
19 replies
Hi there fellow warriors. My name is Steve from the UK and I am relatively new here and I'm looking to do some networking and interacting.

I wanted to know quite simply what peoples' goals are for 2013 however large or small.

My goal is to build up my new my blog Steve Fitz Marketing Blog and my subscribers. I want to do this by interacting on here by getting involved with all sorts of conversations and hopefully offering some advice a long the way.

I am really enjoying learning about this crazy world of Internet Marketing. It seems every day really is a school day and you really can't learn enough.

But I have spent almost 12 months suffering from "shiny object syndrome" and not following through with an objective or my latest training course.

So my goal is to concentrate on building my readers to my blog and hopefully making some new friends on here.

Love to hear from anyone and what business goals and targets you have for 2013.

Also if anyone had any hints and tricks to offer along the way that would also be very much appreciated

    Nice shameless plug for your blog, respect. My goal is to branch out a bit from just internet marketing. I hope to launch my first mobile game app and create my own unique social networking website just for fun.

    I've done the work to prepare for 2013 with the release of phpLD 5.0 and now that we have so much more available due to the upgrades, building on what I have already done is going so much easier. So I get to spend the first part of 2013 showing off how much our product can do.

    I also have a second product called that is a niche CRM that we started in 2002 that we are switching to a subscription model. Most people in the niche charge $50+/month and ours is better. We'll be rolling out a new release, and promoting it to a large captive audience we have from a huge forum I own for the niche.

    I'll be continuing to enjoy life in California as well. Been here 3 years and loving it. Hope to meet more interesting people and enjoy the weather and many parks.

    My goal is to turn my business into a 5 figure a month success. I also want to start sticking to making post on my blog. Oh how I fail at that no matter how many times I say "I'm sticking to this".

      My goal is, gulp, $1000 a week from affiliate/online marketing. That's such a huge jump for me. I'll get there incrementally. Starting from very low two figures!

      Good luck to everyone!

    Income goal - 80,000.
    Business goal - quit my day job and have my primary income be from Internet marketing.

    So far I am starting to make money on selling services. I'm going to start branching that out. I also have an Ebook and membership program coming out in a non IM niche in the next few weeks. Hopefully that will be a good start to the year.

    Hi!

    We'll lets see. First I'm finally out of lurking from WF and going to start networking more. Also, I'm creating 2 websites as of the moment, so I plan on finishing those (web design services) and having them optimized, ranked and running.

    Then I want to be able to scale those websites and include more services within the year. Maybe create my own info product along the way ^_^.

        I have two main goals for 2013. First and foremost, to become a prolific creator again, switching away from massive over-consumption of information. This involves writing a ton more and getting into photography and shooting video to market my projects on YouTube. Second is to increase and automate revenue streams so I can go traveling just after Christmas 2013.

        Almost forgot to mention, I will finally start building my lists in earnest!

    Wow I didn't think this thread would have gained this much response! Then again the active marketers on here are doers!!

    Apologies for the shameless blog plug by the way, but then again it is one of the reasons I am here.

    Also finding out what everyone is working on is really cool. The next opportunity for us all could be just around the corner by learning or watching how other people on here are doing their marketing.

    Next year I am determined to make things happen in my marketing. I want to start adding a healthy income to my day job with the intention of being fully self sufficient by this time next year!!

    One goal. Focus. It' my biggest (probably my only) problem, and I know once I get that handled, everything will fall into place. Having ADD makes it a little tricky but it's not an excuse!

      I don't have ADD but focus has been one of my issues over this last year. I think with Internet Marketing because the initial start up costs are so low people do not give it the same work ethic that would be required for a bricks and mortar business.

      You cant just sit back in this game and wait for it to happen. This next year I'm going to be more active with my blog build my list and start to build a brand.
