Writing a business plan shouldn’t be complicated. In this step-by-step guide, I’ll show you how to quickly and easily write a business plan that will get the results you want. Don’t worry, you don’t have to have a business or accounting degree to put together a great business plan. This guide will show you how to get your plan done step-by-step without any of the complexity or frustration.
The six components of a business Plan
Whether you’re building a business plan to raise money and grow your business or just need to figure out if your idea will work, every business plan needs to cover 6 essential topics. Here’s a quick overview of each topic. There are a lot more details and instructions for each step later in this guide.
1. Executive summary
The executive summary is an overview of your business and your plans. It comes first in your plan and is ideally only one to two pages. Most people write it last, though.
2. Opportunity
The opportunity section answers these questions: What are you actually selling and how are you solving a problem (or “need”) for your market? Who is your target market and competition?
3. Execution
In the execution chapter of your business plan, you’ll answer the question: how are you going to take your opportunity and turn it into a business? This section will cover your marketing and sales plan, operations, and your milestones and metrics for success.
4. Company and management summary
Investors look for great teams in addition to great ideas. Use the company and management chapter to describe your current team and who you need to hire. You will also provide a quick overview of your legal structure, location, and history if you’re already up and running.
5. Financial plan
Your business plan isn’t complete without a financial forecast. We’ll tell you what to include in your financial plan, but you’ll definitely want to start with a sales forecast, cash flow statement, income statement (also called profit and loss) and your balance sheet.
6. Appendix
If you need more space for product images or additional information, use the appendix for those details.
In the upcoming sections of this article, I’ll dive into the details of each section of your business plan and focus on building one that your investors and lenders will want to read. (learn more details from here>>)

Discover 7 common Google AdWords mistakes to avoid with your Google AdWords campaigns.
There are plenty of mistakes that people make with Google AdWords so it is important to avoid them and to keep your campaigns optimized.
Since AdWords can be difficult to learn for beginners, new advertisers many times make mistakes and don’t ever test Google AdWords again.
That’s why we put together this video, so you can look at some common errors that advertisers make.
Your first ad campaign with Google Ads.
7 Google AdWords Mistakes:
Mistake 1 – Opting into the Search Network and Display Network at the same time. The Google Search Network and Search Partners are much different than the Google Display Network (GDN). When you target keywords, you want to target them on the search network since they perform much different for display ads.
Mistake 2 – Not Using Negative Keywords. Negative keywords are vital to a successful campaign. Regardless of the industry you work in, there are always going to be unrelated keywords in your search terms report. In addition, you can remove certain words that will not drive you conversions.
Mistake 3 – Not Optimizing for Conversions. People spend a lot of money on advertising where they simply drive traffic to their website. They have no goal in terms of leads, sales, phone calls, app installs, or any other key performance indicator. In order to successfully manage your advertising budget, you need to track conversions and optimize your conversion rate while keep costs similar.
Mistake 4 – Poor Keyword Research and Bidding on Broad Match Keywords. Keyword Research is absolutely vital to successful campaigns in addition to avoiding broad match keywords. Modified broad match, phrase match, and exact match keywords will help your campaigns perform much better. In addition, finding the right keywords and bidding on them properly will be the best long-term strategy for you.
Mistake 5 – Not Testing Bidding Strategies as you Optimize Google AdWords Campaigns. There are a wide variety of Google AdWords bidding strategies including Target CPA, Target ROAS, Maximize Clicks, Maximize Conversions, Target Outranking Share, Target Top of Page, and Manual CPC. We love starting with Manual CPC and then getting to Target CPA after we test everything.
Mistake 6 – Only Creating 1 Ad Variation and Not Using Ad Extensions. Google AdWords will automatically optimize your campaigns to show your top-performing ads. In addition, ad extensions make your ads larger in search results and you can add more relevant information.
Mistake 7 – Not Understand the Goals of Google AdWords Ultimately, you want to keep testing and optimizing your Google AdWords campaigns until you can effectively use Target CPA or Target ROAS bidding strategies. If you can find the right keywords for your business that drive results, you can keep bidding on them and optimizing your campaigns. Target CPA and Target ROAS bidding strategies will allow Google AdWords to optimize your campaigns for you, you just have to give them the data they need while constantly improving your campaigns.

Introduction
If you’ve been on the internet for more than a few hours, you’ve likely seen at least one advertisement teaching you how to make thousands of dollars a minute, working from your underwear, in the comfort of your own home.
These ads are so ridiculously popular that if you’re like most people, you start doubting whether it really IS possible to make money online.
The truth is, it IS possible. It might be hard to make thousands of dollars a minute from the get-go (or at all ), but there are certainly ways you can make an extra $100 a day working from home with ease.
In this report, I am going to share 66 different ways in which you can create more income. I have tried to cover all types of methods for all different personality and skill types, and I am confident that you’ll be able to find at least a few that sound good to you.
While some of them require more work than others, please know that you can mix and match. For example, maybe you can do a few hours of forum moderation at $10 an hour for $30, and then make up the extra $70 doing something else.
The key is to have fun and do whatever you enjoy.
I have given an overview of each idea, and then fleshed them all out a little bit so you could get started on whatever you like, immediately.
Do keep in mind that these methods are NOT internet businesses in any nature – it’s just opportunities available on the internet to make “part-time” income. It is my sincere hope that you get a lot out of this report, and that you take action and start making money!
We tried to find different ways of making money for all types of people, and I sincerely hope that some of these resonated with you.
Remember that you can mix and match these methods if you want. Some of them don’t make as much money, but because they’re fun, they’re a nice thing to add to your repertoire.

From The Desk Of John Crestani
Malibu, California
December 11, 2019
I’ve got to be honest with you, to this day those figures above still give me goosebumps.
I never thought I’d be one of those lucky people who got to live a jet-setting lifestyle, living on our own terms, and able to do pretty much whatever we want.
Certainly not when I was working a corporate job as an Analyst living paycheck to paycheck.
(Barely).
My life consisted of a 1.5 hour commute (there and back)…
To sit in a cubicle and be UTTERLY miserable
It felt like no matter what I did, no matter how many hoops I jumped through, or targets I exceeded – the needle wasn’t moving. (That’s “Corporate John” to the left!)
After I paid my rent, bills, the crazy gas prices and put food on the table, I had barely anything left.
In fact, a recent survey revealed that a LOT of people are being forced to live like I used too.
Maybe even you…
Nearly 10% of those making $100,000 or more say they can’t make ends meet
Most workers are in debt and many believe they always will be
78% of full-time workers said they live paycheck to paycheck
56% of all U.S. workers say that they’re in debt over their heads
Chances are if you’re in traditional JOB you’re Just Over Broke… and unfortunately, the OVERWHELMING likelihood is that things are going to STAY that way…
Having Your Eyes locked on your bank account every month is no way to live
I’m sure you’d agree, right?
As for the government coming in to help, or your boss giving you a raise?
That’s likely never going to happen either.
Salaries in America
Are decreasing every single year.
I hope you want to read and watch more..
… and more important: MAKE IT HAPPEN TO YOU in 2020 (even 1-3% of that per month).

Your job isn’t safe.
… and you need more money to survive.
With living expenses spiraling, house prices skyrocketing, and retirement costs getting higher and higher… your salary is getting stretched further, and further.
Wouldn’t you agree that affording your grocery bill every week is becoming more and more challenging?
When you couple that with the little increases to your subscriptions and bills that start to seriously add up over time too…
Your belt is getting tighter and tighter – isn’t it?
Some programs in the internet can help – not “get-rich-quick” scams or Ponzi schemes.
Why test WordPress site performance? Well, things like site speed are becoming increasingly more important each year, and maybe even each month. (recomended by ThemeTrust)
Quite simply, and this is something that’s been proven multipletimes, the faster your site is, the better you’ll be able to serve your audience.
This rings true on many levels:
chief of them: faster sites are more user-friendly – there’s simply less lag,
faster sites are more optimized for mobile viewing,
faster sites rank better in Google,
lastly, faster sites convert better (people generally don’t like to wait more than two seconds for a webpage to load).
But with all that being said … where does one actually start? How to test WordPress site performance – your site performance? Or, to put it bluntly, how do you know if your site’s slow?
Your answers:
Four ways to test WordPress site performance
1. Test your load times
Let’s begin by going through perhaps the most significant way to test WordPress site performance – the test of how fast your site is.
For starters, you could just enter the URL of the site in your browser’s address bar, and see for yourself. But a test like that doesn’t give you the whole picture. As in, it only lets you know how fast the site behaves for you, and not for your audience.
There, select the server location from where you want to measure your site performance. It’s best to select the location that is nearest to your target audience:
A couple of seconds after clicking “START TEST,” Pingdom will let you know about the individual components of your overall performance score.
You can look into them one by one for more insight:
That being said, the most important info you can find right in the first section:
2. Test how much concurrent traffic your site can handle
The next test really worth doing is via the Load Impact tools:
Just enter your site’s URL in the box and click “Run free test.”
What Load Impact does is that it actually creates 25 concurrent (bot) users, and sends them over to your site in order to see how the site performs under load. The test takes place over the duration of five minutes.
When the test is done, you get a nice summary + chart:
At first glance, this seems complicated, but you can actually read that chart pretty easily. Basically, all that matters is this:
(!) You want the green line – representing your load time – to be as flat as possible. If it goes up, it means that your site performance can be improved.
3. Test the quality of your WordPress setup
Much like all software products, your WordPress site consists of multiple small elements, scripts, and mechanisms that, when combined together, give you all the features that make WordPress awesome.
However, not all those elements are always 100% optimized…
This is where GTmetrix comes into play, and provides a really comprehensive way to test WordPress site performance.
Similarly, all you need to do is enter your site’s URL and click the “Analyze” button.
After a while, you will get a detailed summary, going through different elements of your website:
image optimization,
browser caching,
JavaScript optimization,
CSS optimization,
redirections,
HTTP requests optimization, and much much more.
GTmetrix also gives you an overall score using a simple grading system. For example, if you’re not doing all that great in the performance department, you’ll see this:
Once you have it installed and activated, you can go to wp-admin / Tools / P3 Plugin Profiler. There, just click the “Start Scan” button, and then “auto scan” when prompted:
After a while, you’ll get a chart representing the impact that each of your plugins has on the overall load time of the entire site. Like this one:
What you can do now, for example, is remove some of the slow plugins, and look for faster alternatives offering similar functionality.
So is your WordPress site slow?
After performing these tests, did you discover that your site could be faster? If so, the easiest and most surefire way to have a fast WordPress site, is through your web host. If you are looking for a new host, my recommendation is SiteGround. To put it simply, they are super fast, not only in serving your pages, but also in providing support.
In a recent survey among WordPress site owners, SiteGround received the most votes for the fastest web host. Of course do your own research, and if you decide to move to SiteGround, they will even migrate your site for free.

Machine learning. Algorithms. Artificial intelligence. Whatever term you prefer to use, it’s obvious enough that computers and computer programs are doing a lot more than basic arithmetic these days.
Carefully designed apps have gained the capability to extrapolate and predict far more information than ever before. What’s shown in your Netflix suggestions or your Facebook news feed is not that by accident. It’s nowhere near random. The system is continually learning your preferences and catering your experience to fit those preferences. (These tools are discussed on Michael Kwan and John Chow blog posts)
From the perspective of a blogger and online content creator, there are numerous online tools that you can use to create better content for your audience. Many of these leverage artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning to some degree or another, and five of the most compelling are highlighted here today.
AnswerThePublic
Before you can start blogging, you need to come up with ideas for content. You might have a lot of them when you first get started, but you’ll eventually find yourself in a bit of a creative rut. We’ve all been there. So, what can you do?
Head on over to AnswerThePublic and enter a keyword or two. The tool at AnswerThePublic is partly fueled by Google’s Autocomplete algorithm, taking that keyword and expanding it into hundreds of potential topic ideas for blog posts and other online content.
For example, I entered “smart glasses” as my query. The tool then suggested such possible topics or areas of exploration as:
Are smart glasses the future?
How to make smart glasses at home
What are level smart glasses?
Smart glasses for cycling
Smart glasses that look normal
It’s like having a brainstorming session with some of your smartest colleagues, but it’s almost instantaneous and far more comprehensive.
Grammarly
I realize that I might be shooting myself in the foot here a little, given that I make my living as a freelance writer and editor. At the same time, I also know that I can’t possibly edit everybody’s work, and yes, even I make typos and mistakes from time to time too. All humans do.
While you might think that the spellcheck utility in your word processor, blogging software, or web browser of choice is good enough, it’s nowhere near perfect. If I typed the word “prefect” in the previous sentence, it would not have been picked up as a spelling mistake, because “prefect” is a word… but it’s not “perfect.”
Grammarly uses artificial intelligence to improve your writing in almost every way, looking for spelling and grammatical mistakes, and offering suggestions for clarity and more. It’s pretty smart.
Remove.bg
Many modern smartphone cameras offer some sort of “portrait mode.” On many phones, this mode is facilitated by a camera with multiple lenses. The phone can then better determine what is in the foreground and what is in the background, separating the two and applying a faux “bokeh” effect.
The Google Pixel 3 only has a single camera on the back, and yet it is able to achieve largely the same results thanks to machine learning and artificial intelligence. It takes its best guess to separate the subject from everything else, blurring out the background for an artistic aesthetic.
In some ways, it appears that Remove.bg performs a similar kind of thing, but for an entirely different purpose. Upload any image (or input an image URL), and the online tool will remove the background from that image in a matter of seconds. It’s not perfect, but it’s utterly remarkable, and can make for some fun, creative opportunities.
Wibbitz
Grammarly looks at your words. Remove.bg looks at your images. And Wibbitz helps you create videos. As you know, video has very much become the name of the game with online content, but not everyone has the time, expertise or resources to pull together incredible video content.
Yes, everyone is vlogging and you should too. Yes, you can start with $200 or less. But what Wibbitz does is something different altogether. You simply provide it with text and it can convert that text into a video, complete with relevant imagery, making it perfect for platforms like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
This won’t replace your vlog, but it will add tremendously to your repertoire when it comes to the kinds of content you can share with your audience. And fast too.
Blogging is hard work; you’ve got to come up with interesting content ideas, do online research and keyword research, collect screenshots, and finally write the article. According to statistics, the average blog post takes 3.5 hours to write. (tips from Syed Balkhi, creator of WpBegginer)
But a typical blogger has many other daily tasks to manage as well such as social media posting, guest blogging outreach, email marketing, and so on. All of this can take up a lot of time.
So, are you wondering how you can speed up these processes?
If you’re able to write great articles faster and be more productive regarding other daily tasks, you’ll have more time to work on growing your blog and your business. That’s why you should take advantage of some awesome free tools that will help you become a better, more efficient blogger.
