We're back with a 30 Day Challenge!!

Hey everybody! Great to see you again. I know we fell down for the last couple weeks, but we're back.

This is a very good lesson though. If you are not excited/interested/passionate about what you are blogging about it's very EASY not to blog!! Keep that in mind when you are starting your blogs out there.

So here we are at the beginning of a new month and a new experiment. This month we've decided to make it a challenge. A 30 Day Challenge ~ of the Ed Dale variety.

That's right. This month we will be working our way through Ed Dale's Thirty Day Challenge. So the goal for this month is to make your first 10 dollars online. If you've already made 10 dollars online don't worry about it, there will be plenty of learning involved anyway.


This 30 day challenge will take you through the 4 major components of internet marketing.
  1. Market Research
  2. Traffic
  3. Conversion ~ or the sales process
  4. Products
I think you will have a better handle on each of these areas when we are done with the challenge and that will allow you to continue with your project and/or start new projects when we are through.

The entire 30 day challenge is completely FREE!! We will be using web 2.0 for a wide variety of pieces in this marketing puzzle and Ed Dale will be teaching it all.

So for this blog I think we will be talking about our learning, and growing and other aspects of the challenge itself as they come up. Since I haven't done the challenge I'm not sure what's going to come up ~ so that will be a surprise. :)

I do know that Ed encourages you to put together a group for this project. He recommends facebook, but since we already have the ning community up and running I suggest we gather there. I have set up a 30 Day Challenge Group at the Internet Marketing Action Plan community over at ning. Anyone and everyone is welcome to join.

This group will be for support and sharing, as well as giving stumbles and diggs and helping one another out along the way through the challenge.

I look forward to seeing you all there and hearing the success stories at the end of the month!

So here we go! We started on April 1st, so you are not behind, just come on in and join up.

Here's the info you need to get to the challenge itself.

30 Day Challenge homepage.

If at some point you have already signed up for the challenge it will show your email is already in the system, go here to sign in. I believe you can request your sign in info from this page as well.

There is quite a bit of "preseason" information. This is information about different web 2.0 applications we will be using throughout the challenge and how to install and set them up. Don't freak out about the preseason stuff. You can do it bit by bit and catch up ~ even wait until the weekend if you want. :)

Just go ahead and TAKE ACTION!! Just start at day 1 it's completely painless and the song is hilarious. You'll know what I mean when you get started. :)

See ya at Ning! Here's to a great 30 day Challenge and 30 day marketing experiment.
