Think IM
Here is what Gabor said:
“I find that many marketers have too many projects running at the same time. If you are serious about getting a website ranking in the search engines, you should focus a lot of time on that one site.
If you are trying to rank six domains at one time, then you better have plenty of time or help to promote these sites.
It is not as easy to rank a new website as it was five years ago, so you will want to spend your time building links to your sites.”
Now isn’t that so true. My to do lists are so long. Projects do get finished; however.
Recently, I read somewhere else–maybe in someone’s post–that multitasking is not always a good thing. Taking it a project at a time and completing each one before you begin the other is considered a much better way to do business.
Now a personal note. I have always liked having multiple tasks for a number of reasons.
1. When using outsourcers, you sometimes end up waiting for some task to be done by them. While you are waiting, you can be working on something else. That way no time is wasted.
2. It keeps me from getting bored. Having several projects is very stimulating and that actually makes me enjoy what I am doing even more.
3. It can have its efficiencies. In delegating, you have a number of tasks taking place at the same time, and there is little downtime.
And, here is the big plus–you do complete more projects in less time if you work it right. You just work so hard.
You know what the saying: “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” Well, maybe that applies to me. Doing my work a project at a time would be so difficult. What about you? Could you do it?
