Productivity is one of the most important things that your business needs in order to thrive, yet it can also be one of the toughest things to make happen. After all, it’s all too easy to have a lazy day and slack off – but doing so leaves your business sliding down…
…and in the fast-paced world of online marketing, that’s not something that you can afford too often if at all. Recently a study revealed that one of the quickest ways to ramp up productivity was a surprisingly simple one.
By putting productive co-workers together with co-workers who were not so productive – perhaps from spending too much time around the water cooler -both groups actually increased their productivity.
As an internet marketer, there’s often no office or water cooler, but you can hack your way to more productivity in a similar way by teaming up with another marketer, particularly if its someone with opposite strengths to you.
Not only can you work towards the same goal with your separate talents, you’re also halving your workload and bounching off each other. If you’ve ever wondered why so many marketers team up for JV specials, this is why: the biggest launches could be done by one guy… but with a team full of strong players, everyone benefits and the launch is more successful.
The best way to do this is simply to spend time around marketers on online forums and get to know people, building your reputation in your niche and community. Even just 30 minutes a day will have powerful results own the line, and it won’t feel like work.
Give it a try today, and within just a few weeks or months, I guarantee you’ll be better informed, have key allies, more ideas and higher productivity – all from just making this small change in your daily routine.
