What Does That Mad Avon Lady Mean To Do

Business and personal goals must be relevant, have a call-to-action or plan to achieve them, and be achievable with in a certain time frame. When we set goals we give ourselves motivation to follow through and complete them.  Also, goals need to be focused and consistent, make sure they do not contradict each other. With goals you have a clear statement on "who I am" and "what I can do".  Goals should reviewed everyday.


I am still working on my goals for the year, and will review and update them over time. I have already posted a blog on setting goals on Diary of a Mad Avon Lady. I have goals for my Avon business, marketing in my local area, my social networking strategy, and specific blogging goals. I am writing the goals up and am going to put on the wall by my desk so I can see them everyday. 


For example, how many postcards do I want to mail out. I ordered too many books for campaign 1 and going to have to do some tossing. I really prefer spending a little more money and mailing postcards. I asked one of my customers if she would address them from lists that I bought in exchange for free Avon and now she has become a best friend.

I will focus on goals for the next three month and look ahead to six months, this will enable me to complete my goals in smaller parts. I will develop a strategy to achieve goals, and review goals daily to see if they should be re-stated.
