It’s really
important to set goals for your Fiverr business. On Tuesday I covered why it
was time to look back over the year, so you could plan for the year. Today—I know,
I’m posting more often than normal at the moment—is about setting your Fiverr
goals for 2014. I’m going to share my goals and then give you tips for setting
yours.
Post Once a Week on This Blog
When I
started this blog, it was designed to be updated whenever I had something new
to share. In the end, I started posting on a weekly basis. I quite like having
this weekly schedule. It really works for me and you know when I’m going to
have more content.
So I’ve set
up a schedule for this month with post ideas once a week. They’re covering some
of the more poignant topics on Fiverr at the moment.
So, the
first of my Fiverr goals for 2014 is to post on a weekly basis.
Market My Fiverr Gigs More
It’s all
about getting more gig orders, otherwise there won’t be any sales. In an
attempt to do that, I’m going to market my gigs more. I’ll be finding new
places to write and share the news, while posting more on my Facebook and Twitter.
I’d suggest
making this one of your Fiverr goals for 2014. It’s important for all sellers,
whether you’re just starting out or are already a Top Rated Seller.
Make Fiverr No More Than Half My Income
Wait, I’m
going to market more but make it no more than half my income? The goals seem to
contradict each other, right?
Well, while
that is the case, I have goals for my other areas of business, which should
help to make this goal possible. I like to keep eggs in different baskets, so
to speak, just in case somewhere shuts down.
Spend Less Time in the Forums
I seem to
spend too much time looking through posts and generally chatting. It is
becoming a distraction. My goal for 2014 is to only check it once or twice a
day, and post in discussions where I can offer something helpful and
constructive.
I’m going to
try and rant less, although I don’t think I do that too often, and maybe will
try to starts some new discussions.
How Do You Set Your Fiverr Goals for 2014?
So, now it’s
over to you. As a Fiverr seller, you need to have some goals, so here are my
tips for that:
·
What would you like to achieve? Think about your
income dreams, the hours you’d like to work and what you’d like to get from
selling on Fiverr.
·
Make them attainable. It’s really easy to set
goals that are far out there, but they’re not always attainable. If you can’t
realistically achieve them, you will lose motivation during the year.
·
Make them something you can control. Don’t focus
on the income—although it’s worth having that in mind. Focus on goals that you
have control over, such as delivering excellent gigs or marketing more. These
will work into your income goal.
What
are your Fiverr goals for 2014? Share them here and make yourself more
accountable for them. If you’re struggling with ideas, let me know and maybe we
can work on some goals together!
