Hot Coffee, Sweet Success

A couple of months ago I went out of town for a weekend getaway to Hot Springs National Park. The first morning we were there, we headed over to a popular breakfast spot and were greeted with a 20-30 minute wait to be seated. It was a little cold outside that morning, so the restaurant had made arrangements with the shop next door to set up some free coffee and encouraged their patrons to do some shopping while they waited to be seated.

I was happy to see the coffee so I headed over and tried to get some. Much to my disappointment, when I lifted the handle on the spout nothing came out. I decided to tell one of the store workers the coffee was empty, so I stood behind several other customers in a line that didn't appear to be moving.

After several minutes, I gave up and decided I would try the coffee one more time. I lifted the handle and nothing came out, just as I suspected. However, this time I tried moving the handle down and hot coffee filled my cup, and I felt thankful I didn't make a fool of myself for complaining about the coffee being empty.

So, what the heck do this have to do with internet marketing success?

Well, after I thought about what I had done, it dawned on me that many times we are sure we know what we are supposed to be doing to succeed,and yet sometimes we don't do the little things that will ensure our success.

The reason I wasn't able to get any coffee the first time wasn't because there was no coffee available, it was because I didn't take the time to make sure that I was doing things properly.

Growing a successful business on the Internet is no different. There is no shortage of success available to you, you just have to focus on doing the right things to get it, and that is exactly what Magnetic Sponsoring provides us with: a guide to get your business started properly.
