So I decided to start an investment journal here as well instead of just recording once a month because I’ve been learning new things constantly.
Anyways this first post I want to record my current portfolio, the reasoning behind why I set it like that, and my insights for the future at this point.
Should be interesting to look back and see how right or how wrong I am haha.
So HKCC initial data is not great and I’m leaning more toward maybe not creating a course for that anymore.
Possibly limiting to coaching programs that I don’t have to record a course for maybe.
Anyways I’ve settled on the next 1-2 years focusing on 3 content loops – Stephen English, MarketingTips, and assisting LangBuild.
There had been some major shift in my career direction the past few months (actually what seemed and felt like a major shift, but underlying goal is same), and I wanted to write something to reflect back on where I’m heading, where I had been, and why I’m going where I’m going, all tied in together for my life’s goal.
So with all the SEO, content marketing, and blogging knowledge I’ve gotten recently, it was time to give it a spin.
I want to help others promote their blog and content marketing too, but why not make one my own as well?
Inspired by Neil Patel’s $100k challenge and nutritionsecrets.com, I want to challenge myself to make a blog from scratch, and grow it, as well.
I was thinking what I might know just a tiny bit about, and can write a bunch of stuff to help others. I decided to settle on, giving dating advice.
I plan to spend around 1 hour each day on this, 2-3 posts per week, and blog promotion.
HK Christians (hkchristians.net) is a dating network for Christians in Hong Kong. It has been running since 2006.
Their business model is providing a platform for single christians to meet each other. They do so through an online dating platform, along with some in-person events every few months, and with revenue being membership subscriptions and event attendance fee.
They were doing pretty well with the events, drawing 50-80 people for smaller events, and 100+ people for their bigger events.
Their online web app takes subscription fee, but has had very few subscriptions over the years.
Many business and startup owners I talked with, they know in this digital age, they want to get business online. They think online marketing (or digital marketing) will help their business, but not sure where to start.
Here I’m going to give an overview of the basics, hopefully achieving these goals:
If you are business/startup owner and want to increase traffic, revenue, and profit for your business, please read on!
I believe digital marketing can benefit just about any business in this digital age, and I want to help other business and start-up owners learn more about it.
I will be publishing some videos and posts to share my knowledge, but I want to know what YOU want to learn about.
So, send me any question(s), anything related to digital marketing, including how to get more traffic online, SEO, google, social media, content marketing, etc.
Leave it in the comment below, or send it to me at lytstephen@gmail.com. I will do my best to answer everything, and make some posts/video on questions that are popular.
Time for the quarterly review of previous set goals, progress, and plan for next quarter.
Now that my HKC project really started slowing down, I’m finally really digging into digital marketing, with first stop being SEO.
With my internet-microentrepreneur dream, I thought being decent to pretty good at SEO is quite important. Now that I’ve digged into it a bit, ‘quite important’ is an understatement. For anyone who wants to be an internet entrepreneur, some basic keyword research training skills is a MUSTTTT!! One of the biggest realizations I have about SEO is, other people/businesses are pretty terrible at it! Which is why I say SEO skills is a must. Some very basic SEO skills like basic keywords research, chasing after the ‘right’ keywords, setting basic meta and html tags … can already make a huge difference.
My wedding anniversary is June 14th, which is right around the middle of the year. My motivation to work hard comes quite a bit from wanting to provide a good life for my family, so I want to take this time of year from now on to reflect on my personal career growth. (instead of focus on goals like beginning of year or quarterly reviews)
