Tuesday: 38 Days and an Income Opportunity for Writers
Resign from Abbott by 4/4/10.
 38 days and counting!
Brand the biz(es.)
CD. Mexican restaurant. I actually have an old CD, but I've got new technology and really want to burn a higher-quality CD, since I can. I don't see it happening until... yikes. I really don't know. I've spent all morning compiling information for my tax return. It's amazing how fast deductions add up when you take the time to actually inventory them. I'm "making" (technically saving) more money per hour doing this than Abbott ever paid me. Still, it's a lesson learned: Keep good records throughout the year.
15 minutes of small biz research per day.
 Goal met. My mother has a contact at work who deals in real estate acquisition, including in Ohio, and is hooking me up with a commercial real estate broker specific for my needs! I also sent a follow-up email to the pastor of the church I'd like to rent space from in the interim, until I find a quasi-permanent commercial home.
I am SO. FLIPPING. PSYCHED.I am totally going to succeed at this small biz stuff, and it's only in part because I'm brilliant.  The other part involves having a solid network of supportive and knowledgable friends and family willing to help me out, and maybe more importantly, who believe in me.
My Board of Advisors meeting is set for Sunday night, 8:00 PM. I have confirmations from all four of my invitees.
Launch one new Praise Band song per month.
Goal met.
Post at WordPress at least once per week.
 FAIL for last week. Pending for this week. At some point, something will have to give... I plan to start a music instruction blog and post it at my studio website to promote traffic. I may piggyback off the dude I've been writing for at Textbroker, who buys articles at TB and publishes them on his blog. Whereas his weakness is poor writing skills, my weakness is lack of time - and either way, if you can earn a profit buying someone else's work, why the heck not?
*just realizes she's addressing an audience of writers looking for income opportunities and could possibly skip the middle man*
Uh...  If you're interested in submitting to my music blog, send me an email, and we'll talk business.
Der. *facepalm*
