2011 Is Sure To Be Great
Friday, December 31, 2010
New Year resolutions, reflecting back at 2010, and thinking about 2011 is what the next couple days are all about. When I think back about this year, I'm feeling so grateful for everything that I've experienced, the new friends I have made, and the goals I've achieved.
Things aren't always smooth but as long as you stay focused on your goals, you have nothing to be disappointed about. I recently spoke to a student who was upset about a recent web project that didn't succeed. I encouraged him to stay the course. With each failure there must be an equivalent success. By focusing on results, not the work itself, we can move ourselves in the direction we want to go.
Over the next few days, relax. Be grateful for all the experiences you've had during the year. Each of your experiences has brought you to this place, right where you are. Internet marketing, search engines, and other online promotions will still be there in 2011. One thing is certain though, they will change. Make it your goal to get more involved with online marketing in the coming year and stay on top of everything marketing.
As many of you know, I have published a couple of books and plan to continue publishing well into the future. I recently noticed that my royalties are growing for digital editions of my book. This was something that starting in 2010 but will only get bigger in 2011. What other changes are on the horizon? I don't know for sure but as marketers we need to lead the charge. New websites, new online promotions, continued growth in social media will be the norm.
Stay focused, enjoy what you do, and continue to improve your marketing knowledge. I'm looking forward to more blogging in 2011 and hearing from more of you through comments and guest posts. All the best to you and your family and Happy New Year!

I'm hoping that business in 2011 will be better. I guess with the right motivation, your business will provide a good platform on which to build success over the coming 12 months.
YEP.. 2011 seems to be bigger and challenging as well for web.

I think you're right on the social media front - lots more changes on the way. Could this be the year that social commerce starts to take off in a big way? I certainly think so.

A lot of people are saying 2011 will be the year of the mobile phone and mobile web. I think that is a good possibility but I also think Social Media will continue to pose as a major player in the marketing field. We just put up a post this morning about tips for social media in 2011, check it out at blog.moscreative.com
Keep up with the great posts and I will definitely be coming back to see your posts as well!
I've just stumbled across your blog, and I think what you said about staying focused is so important in marketing. Sometimes things just don't work and it can be disheartening. I just graduated this year, and the job search was especially tough! But I'm now working at an agency and am going to try not to let little slip ups get me down this year.
I'm trying to increase my knowledge of SEO, so I'll definately be keeping an eye on your blog. Thanks.

I certainly see any failures I may have had in 2010 as steps forward, perhaps not the direct route I was looking for but certainly a step towards learning more.
I am certainly a more knowledgeable marketer going into 201l because of my ideas that did not work. Besides if everything went exactly as planned then life would be boring, there would be no game.
Thanks, Nick, Tahiti
