In order to be more successful with your pet business, get your
mind and body geared up for success. Start by making positive
attitude adjustments for success and better health, inside and
out with these helpful tips...

• Concentrate on business first, and then dig in and learn more
about how to run a business. Using help from library or other
resources, develop basic business and marketing plans. And from
now on, stop wondering how to run your business operations and
KNOW. When you follow no plan or even a poor one, you do reach
your goal: nothing. So plan for success and strive to get there
instead!

• Learn more about the pet industry, what people buy online and
off. Do a little research each month to see what the more
popular selling pet products and services are and what campaigns
are out in the mainstream. Bookmark pet sites and sign up for
their ezines to see what's new, what the news and announcement
are and what you might be able to learn to help your own
business grow. Keep up with the industry!

• Slacking off and being lazy don't work in the business world
long term. So stop trying to short change your visitors, leads,
prospects, clients. Use some elbow grease and do what you need
to do to each day to attract traffic, generate leads, follow up
and close make your sales. Make a point to regularly plan sales
and marketing campaigns – online and off – for getting human and
search engine traffic, leads, prospects and sales. Have your
website, content, autoresponders and everything else updated
regularly and in place. Avoiding laziness helps make anyone more
successful!

• Don't hide out from the real world and stay at your computer
all day. Get out and network at industry event, and network,
reaching out – online and off – to connect with others. Learn
from other pet business reps who have been where you are and
already reached some level of success. Network with others who
work at home for tips about what works best and what doesn't
when juggling work with family. Save your contacts' information
in a database like one in any email program (Microsoft Outlook)
and add to your goals to follow up on a regular basis with
people. Set goals: talk to at least four people every day via
phone, email or some other means.

• Get and stay in shape. Success starts on the inside!

So get yourself and your business in sync with success.
Successful work habits are directly proportional to successful
results!
