Day 20 – Keeping Close Watch of Cashflow

I have to admit it, I am sucks at managing money. I have been thinking hard about it and finally found a solution to my problem – finance management system / software. I haven’t choose any specific software to use yet but I’m probably going to use Microsoft Money or something else that I can install on my server and manage online. Or probably use both of them.

This will make it easier for me to track my cashflow and manage them better. I find it really troublesome to keep track of money when I have to pay more than 10 freelancers and make sure I have more money so I can start new website projects. I can imagine this is going to increase my productivity and finance management.

I know it’s quite late to start using this type of software. But that’s better than never using them, right? I’ll decide which one to use tonight and continue with my pursue to achieve financial freedom! 🙂

Cheers!

Day 19 – Closing The Deal

I think my 30 day challenge would have been better if I followed the roadmap laid out my the experts. I’ll try to complete the remaining 11 days using my own strategies, to show you what I will achieve after I completed this.

So far I am having problem to close the deal and getting more customers to use my service. I have been getting quotation request from several potential customers but I noticed they were not serious enough. I’ll need to find a better way to close the deal and bringing in positive cashflow!

I’ll continue later.

Day 18 – Getting Organized

I decided to install a project management system to manage my team of writers, link builders, blog commenters to make sure everyone will respond whenever I send them an email. It should make it easier for me to track the progress of jobs being done and speed things up.

I managed to start 2 AdWords campaign just as I planned yesterday and get about 14k impression for my ads. Not bad considering each click cost me RM0.40 to RM0.50, hehe.

I haven’t start PPC campaign for my CPA campaign yet but I’ll do that tonight once I get a response from my Affiliate Manager.

So what else have I done today?

Installed the ReminderFox plugin to keep track of things and remind myself about things that I need to complete.

What else am I going to do today?

Contact potential customers and close one or two deal. Just closed one small project involving dofollow blog comments earlier, but the rate is quite low. Maybe I’ll complete about 2,000 to 3,500 comments and move on to higher paying projects after that.

Adios!
