#2018planning

There are always going to be things that may stop us from reaching our #marketinggoals. Consider those now during your planning process so you're aware of them, you can start developing ways of getting around them, and you can prevent them from turning into excuses for not reaching your goal. Preparing for the hurdles now will make it that much easier to reach your marketing goals.

Setting effective marketing goals can be more difficult than it seems. Your goals should always be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time sensitive. Your marketing goals should also align directly with your business goals. Learn how to better develop goals by enjoying this helpful article below. Need help establishing goals for 2018?

Working in my A4 Leuchtturm1917 today😊 I keep a separate business bullet journal - this is a new yearly overview with quarterly achievements department and a calendar sticker from our @btsjoyonpaper Etsy shop. Do you like it? #2018planning #bulletjournal

As you probably know by now, I have based my 2018 planning on Your Best Year 2018 by Lisa @iamlisajacobs and this is what my 2018 Vision looks like😊 The calendar sticker is from our @btsjoyonpaper Etsy shop - you can use any colours you like to make it work for you😘 What do you imagine your own year to look like? #bulletjournal #2018planning

With a clear marketing goal and a timeline, you can start to put together a strategy to make your best year yet. Just don't forget the most important part of any goal strategy: planning the celebration when you reach your goal! Having a treat at the end of the tunnel such as an employee appreciation lunch, extra PTO, or even a small bonus can help keep your team motivated and excited to reach your 2018 goals.
