How will you grow in 2008?
December 28th, 2007, by Michael StelznerIt’s that time of year. The time to make plans for 2008. As a writer or marketing pro, how will you invest in your future? What are your plans?
I am trying to avoid the word ‘resolution’ because we all know what happens when we make resolutions.
I want to know what steps you will take to expand your horizons. You do have a plan, don’t you?
Will you take night classes? How about read some new books? Attending seminars?
So what are your plans for next year? I want to know.

By the way, Happy New Year!

Michael,
Happy New Year. I plan to grow in variety of different ways. First, I plan to read 12 books and learn 2 new skills that I can apply to my profession. I am interested in the areas of web metrics and SEO. Second, I want to establish myself more of a thought leader in the field of email marketing. I have been doing it for almost 7 years and while I am the company expert, plan to try to use my knowledge and expertise to the rest of world. Lastly, I want to take of myself in a way that I never have. God gave me the body I have and I need to treat it as a precious asset. Again…happy new year to you and your family.

Hey Andrew - Happy 2008!
You must be a real fast reader.
You should write some white papers to help you on the white paper front.
I am with you about treating your body like a temple.

Hello Michael!
I plan to stick to my five New Year’s resolutions: read/learn more, write more, accept criticism, connect with other writers, and overcome objectives.
I’m definitely looking forward to the teleclasses…
Happy New Year,
Michelle

You’ve really made me think, Michael!
My plans for 2008 include: write and sell another 4 books, break into the single title market and focus, focus, focus on the promotional side of things more.
Happy New Year!

In 2008 I’m starting a new life coming out of retirement I’m taking care of my body like never before and learning about the computer (this is a new gig, one thats interesting enough to pull me away from fishing. (sorry I can only catch so many fish and then it becomes boring) A great and happy new year to everyone!
