This is a very strategic question that I will provide a very differing perspective on than most. The todo list is the tool tha will guide you to a thriving business. Everything that you will do to boost your business is or will be an artifact on to your to do list. Those line items are there for good reason. When I say items, I don't just mean the red tabs
I mean every lime item is potential to boost your business.
Consider the to do list the central nervous system of your business. Everything you do or don't do will show in your to do list daily, monthly etc.
What do I mean by baseline. So, when you first started SFI, your ledger was empty. Ledger = to do list. Once you completed the launch pad intermediate items or any item in which is not tied to monthly reoccurring tasks, you have now created your growth baseline. All your one time VP is done. What is left is your score card . Score card is a perfect term because if you look at a to do list one can easily gauge how well they are doing at several aspects of their business.
The daily actions section is just one part of the todo list strategy. It is everything else you should be doing on the to do list that once mastered or completed will be test amount to your thriving business.
These are are few good examples of what tasks other than daily to do tasks you should be doing. The
For example:
1: Advertising and marketing your gateways is one of many method of advertising. One can truly tell how well they are doing because if they are sustaining PSA EA2 or higher, the bottom of the to do list should be growing in VP
2: if you are promoting TripleClicks them you should be boosting to do list items for TripleClicks sales, or if supporting the store, your store sales VP line items should be growing , as well as , your ratings VP. If you use auctions and games to your advantage, then all the bids mad games lime items should be growing to they are maxed out.
3: if you are actively promoting new ECAs or referring them, that will show in your ECA referrals items in your list.
4. If you are gaining new knowledge daily and leveraging then AskSc answers you provide your are likely wining some of the top VP prices for 1st 2nd and 3rd third.
These are just a few great examples task you should be doing other than the daily to do tasks to grow a thriving business. However, the key point I am trying to make is you should not just perform the to do daily tasks and then abandon the list.
It is the TO DO list that if followed and each and every task line top to bottom is either grown or maxed out monthly, you are growing a thriving business. On the other hand, if it is stagnant month to month outside of the daily to dos, then you are doing something wrong.
So, the moral of all of this and to simply answer a great question, what should I do besides my daily to dos to grow a thriving business is to use just that, the the entire to do list like it is intended, and work on each and every task on that to do list till you have monthly maxed out every item till the point you are on autopilot almost. If you do this, you will no doubt have the thriving business as you are duplicating the to do list tasks which is exactly what the to do list was I intended to be used for.
Follow this logic and way of approaching your SFI business will keep you focused on that to do list and won't cause you to deviate much but will keep you on course for success. This is why it is the nervous system of your business and why duplicating it is the golden key.
Good luck!
