What gets measured gets managed. That said, what were your proudest results for 2010 in the “getting seen, heard, celebrated and compensated” department? Since it’s a shiny New Year, it’s timely to consider your accomplishments.
For example, did you:
- Win any awards?
- Earn any new professional certifications or complete additional professional training?
- Earn an abundance of remarkable and memorable testimonials from clients for your outstanding work and stunning results?
- Invite Five-Star reviews of your book on Amazon.com?
- Earn best-seller status for your new book?
- Attract invitations to address influential audiences of your ideal clients by webinar, teleseminar, or live and in person?
- Enhance your influence in the form of new ezine subscribers, blog readers, and fans and followers on social media?
- Grow RSS subscriptions to your blog?
- Grow your community of joint venture partners and affiliates to extend your message far and wide?
- Earn editorial attention in prestigious and well-targeted media outlets that are read by your ideal clients?
- Add new product/service offerings that are earning raves and fueling new and existing streams of income?
- Attract more customers than ever before to benefit from your products/services?
- Earned stronger rankings on Google for the keywords that your ideal clients search to find a business like yours?
- Give back to a cause that is near and dear to your heart?
- And, most importantly, what are your intentions to keep the flow of progress moving forward?
Take the time to complete a simple Platform Progress Status Report that shows the steps forward you and your company have made in these key areas and others that are important to your growth.
If there is good reason to update and refresh your bio with the latest accomplishments, take the opportunity to do so. Then, tuck this away until this time next year and marvel at your progress that is achieved through your deliberate, strategic actions, taken one thoughtful step at a time.
