If you are like me, you created web site metatags with the help of your Web master. Maybe like me, you didn't spend time or money submitting to search engines because you weren't techie enough.

Why don't you write a book?
Most people complain it takes too long. They are too busy. One professional coach said she was not a natural writer. An entrepreneur feared it wouldn't sell, or it would be too much effort. A professional speaker says she is so busy marketing herself, she doesn't know where to find the time to write.
Did you know that 95% of coaching businesses fail because their owners don't pay enough attention to sales copy?
As business people we must deal with a great deal of paper and information from email and the net every day. You need to know however, that according to the "Pareto Time Management Rule," only 20% of all paper and information is important. That leaves 80% that is not important. It's just another decision to make as to whether this information makes your life better or not.
80% of your Web site is Maintenance!
Once your Web site is up, you must maintain it. Maintenance means changes, and each time you make a change, you may make a mistake. I'm really grateful when people point out my Web glitches, and I can be more proactive by checking my site each week.
I am a non-techie book coach who has been in business for 20 years, but only Online for the past 2 1/2 years. I had only sold books and special reports for three months when I contributed to this book. Yet, in just three months I manifested amazing online profits. My second website's first month's sales were only $75 but the third month my sales had already grown 10 times and are still growing.--now consistently $3000.
Not all books come out whole, all at once. In fact, most books ease out little by little. They have strange and wondrous beginnings. Some come from speeches, some come from articles or short stories. The saying goes if you write a short story or article every day, at the end of a year you'll have a book--a big book at that! But then, why think so big?
