Reach 300 students by 12/31/11: Set intermediate goals. * Develop a Q1 promotion & ad plan by 1/7: We need to schedule and fill a new songwriting class. * Develop a summer program plan by Spring Break: Staff meeting scheduled for 2/4. Everyone can make it! ![]() I also have a slew of new people signed up for email-only promotions and coupons - way more than have "Liked" us on FB. Still, we have some potentials on FB too. So I'm thinking of running email- and Facebook-only promotions in the next month or two. We also get a lot of hits from the Town Money Saver, and we've never run a promotion there - just advertised. I wonder how many lukewarm readers would turn into hot leads if they saw a coupon there? Our cash flow is in fantastic shape. We have plenty of funds for advertising. I should hit January and February really hard, so I can spent March and April focusing on summer programs. Customized database by 12/31/11: Design web page interface for potential form. ![]() Potbelly: : Add one repertoire song per week ![]() ![]() Messiah: Meet one TBD goal per month: Goal: Sound system work day. ![]() The Praise Band launched a new song two weeks ago - it's probably time for another one. Epiphany (season of light) is really long this year, because Easter is so late. We have time to learn a new "light" song. That might help me feel less neglectful. I attend weekly worship planning meetings every Monday morning, turn my bulletins in on time each week, teach the band new songs once a month or so, schedule special music regularly, perform at my service and others any time I'm needed, hired and manage a sound tech, and am working on a work day where we'll implement a total sound system overhaul, and still I feel like I'm neglecting this job somehow. I'm sure it's not neglect, but more likely, lack of energy. Looking back on my career, this job at my church is my longest-running job ever. I tend to be a job hopper because I thrive on variety. I am project-oriented. I wonder if this job has just gotten too routine. Sadly, I'm too busy with my other jobs to shake it up. Reading: One book per week. ![]() Writing: Goals TBD: Set goals. (1) ![]() (2) ![]() ![]() (3) ![]() (4) ![]() Okay, this is ridiculous. I haven't touched my writing goals since 1/1, beyond getting back into the habit of blogging daily. I will make it a priority to at least set my writing goals by the end of the day. I will also publish at least one MT.com blog post. SLACKER! I've been too busy playing with my business plan the last week or two. Count points: TOTAL POINTS YESTERDAY: 32 Coffee (2) Granola bar (2) Lasagna (7) Crackers (8) Trail mix (9) PB&J (4) |
