Monday Motivation
Whether you like it or you don’t Mondays are part of our life.
So instead of moaning about them let’s change the way we think about Mondays. Whatever you are trying to tell me I know that after the weekend you are full of energy. So why don’t you go and crush it today so you don’t have to do anything for the rest of the week.
Wouldn’t you want to work only one day a week?
To achieve your goals in life you have to work hard
Just coming back from work and I had a conversation today with a young person. And there is one thing that really amazes me – their confidence.
Don’t get me wrong – I am all about confidence. But just because you know how to operate a mobile phone doesn’t make you an IT expert. Or just because you know how to drive a car on the Play Station doesn’t make you Lewis Hamilton.
If you want to achieve your goals in life you have to work hard. Don’t rely on the fact that everybody says ‘Millennials are clever. Millennials are smarter.’
You are not everybody. You are you.
It takes a long time to understand the simplest things
I am just coming back from a meeting with a very difficult client so I have to spill my toughs on to you. SEO as a part of a properly crafted Digital marketing strategy is simple.
It’s not easy but it’s simple.
And if you managed to do the simple things you can be very successful online. The reason you are not successful online is because you are always looking for the most complicated way of doing things. You are always looking for the next Google algorithm, for the next Google update. You are always looking for the Secret. You are always looking for the thing that we know and you don’t. And I am telling you now – that thing doesn’t exist. The thing that you have to do is go out there and do it. Work hard and do it.
Doing it. That is the secret.
Stop blaming Google for your failures
Richard, you can’t control Google or Twitter or Facebook. But you can control your content – the quality and the frequency. You can control the way you talk to your customers online. So it’s about time – no offence – people stop blaming Google or the other social media platforms for their digital marketing not working as expected.
Google and the rest of the gang have been working hard for years so they are now in control of their game.
What you have to do Richard – I mean not you, your company – is to concentrate on your stuff. So by working hard – more and better content every single day, optimising your websites and campaigns, improving the way you interact with your customers online you can be in control of your game.
Just had a chat with a customer online. Not sure this camera managed to record everything. People keep on blaming Google because they are not good at SEO. Come on people. SEO is si pure. SEO is so straight forward. All Google wants to do is make their search engine deliver what people are looking for.
Those people are their customers. And they are just trying to improve their customer’s experience.
All you have to do is serve your customers and deliver value.
This week I’ve given you some unseen footage so you can see that not everything out there is pink. So many of you are emailing me – thank you very much, guys – telling me that I inspire you.
But my job really is not to inspire you as I am not a motivational speaker. My job, my desire is to make you go out there and do it.
So many of you are doing digital marketing only because it’s fashionable and not because you see its true value.
This has to stop. Mobile sales are growing trough the roof every single day. More people are visiting your website than your physical store. In a way, you don’t have a choice – digital marketing is the future of business.
By now you are probably thinking ‘Omi, why is is so sunny, why is so green around you. Like many of you know this week, I am visiting the country of Bulgaria but you do come back here next Sunday cause you’ve got the problems and I’ve got the solutions.
