Day 14 of the 14-Day Challenge
I fell short.
I didn't get my new infoproduct up and selling by my deadline tonight.
I ran into a technical glitch, which seems to be par for the course in my mastermind group. It seems none of us can do a major project without getting delayed by some technical glitch.
My project fell to the same curse.
Time was running close. I had the Word document ready to go. Then I ran it through my PDF maker only to find that it would not translate anchor text links into clickable links in the PDF. The only links it accepted were ones where I used the URL as the hot links.
I was disappointed, but the other mastermind members celebrated that I had come that close.
Thankfully, one of the other mastermind members had solved the exact same glitch I had had. She volunteered to take my Word document and get it working properly as a PDF.
So I won't have to spend a lot of time reinventing the same wheel she has already invented. Now a new challenge starts. For my next two weeks, I committed to getting the infoproduct up and selling on my site. I committed also to promoting the infoproduct to my lists.
Beyond that, a solid round of article marketing will be my next step in promoting it beyond my lists. And a surprise JV opportunity has popped up at a very opportune moment. I'm certainly looking that over, too.
I'll weigh in tomorrow night with some further thoughts as I look back on these past two weeks. But, for now, I'm going to celebrate a very satisfying two-week experience by getting to bed before midnight for the first time and quite a few days!
