In keeping to my 90-day Business & Marketing Action Plan (MAP) my Project of the Week this week was to streamline my hosting account.

These business owners are constantly distracted by Bright Shiny Object syndrome, never finishing one project before moving on to the next. Your business plan won’t ever be perfect, so you may as well just start now and get going. You can always tweak/change/update as you go along. The BSO Camp. Nothing ever gets implemented.
