Their was a great saying that I used with them and it is even more relevant on the Internet with all those distractions. Often you are one click away from disappearing down a rabbit's hole and wasting a tone of time! You have to focus on what's IMPORTANT and not what's Interesting! Decide what is the most important Internet marketing strategy to focus on and stick to that! Don't move on until you have mastered it. Cheers. Hi Adam,

You have to focus on what’s IMPORTANT and not what’s Interesting!

Decide what is the most important Internet marketing strategy to focus on and stick to that! Don’t move on until you have mastered it.

Cheers.

We experience this all the time with <a href="http://www.accolade-corporate-events.com/">team building</a>, sometimes it really is far more effective and beneficial to get the experts in. I'm certain that it works out far more cost effective if you stick to what you are best at!

The Internet is an amazing place, but this stuff is addictive. I now keep Facebook open and when I'm bored I hit "refresh" continually to see what shows up in my feed. I can't exactly claim to be building my business with that behavior. I also spent days on end blogging last year. After a brief hiatus, I'm back, but I've decided 2 posts a week is plenty, and in the time I'd spend writing more I'm better off reviewing company metrics and working on process improvement. I won't even get started on Twitter... This is such a great point! The Internet is an amazing place, but this stuff is addictive.
