Today I took a lesson on online marketing with a company called Infusionsoft. It’s an interesting company that makes automated email campaigns easier to manage. I won’t say that I mastered the system because I haven’t. But I can certainly see how powerful this service will be for me when I launch Prison Professor. I’ll be able to reach out to law firms and show the reasons why I’m uniquely qualified to add value to their firms through the products and services I create. It’s a very exciting prospect, and I’m investing hundreds of hours to further the concept. If all goes according to the schedule that I’ve set, I’ll be ready to launch by Thanksgiving. But that will mean many sacrifices, like my running, which I haven’t done since this past Tuesday. When I set goals, I become obsessed with them. My current goal is to stay on track with the writing scheduled I’ve imposed. To reach the goal, I need to make sacrifices sometimes. If I make good progress tomorrow, I’ll resume running on Sunday.
