, the question in the subject line above is very real.

See, I bet you are doing 5, 10, or even 15 different marketing activities and yet you aren't getting the traction you want.

You are feeling caught in busy, but not productive and you feel out of focus and a bit overwhelmed.

Take ACTION NOW:

1. Pull out an index card and jot down all of the marketing activities you did last week.

2. Now circle just the 3 that you like to do, that feel close to fun.

3. Ditch the rest of the activities and focus exclusively on the 3 activities you circled going forward.

I can feel an argument coming. "But, Melissa, it isn't enough. I've been doing 15 activities and not seeing new clients or the right clients coming to me."

That's because when you are doing things you don't like (and it feels like you are chewing foil), people can tell.

And when, instead, you step fully into doing far less with a sense of fun and enjoyment, you will become magnetic to the right fits.

Yes, I did really just give you permission to do a whole lot less (skip spinning your wheels) in order to make a lot more. What have you got to lose?

Now, if you are uncomfortable putting together your own marketing plan and holding yourself accountable for your progress (always a bit tricky), then let's have a conversation.

10 Tips for Boosting Your Visibility on LinkedIn

When you want to connect with entrepreneurs and executives, LinkedIn is the best network. There are more college graduates earning six figures and more on LinkedIn than any other network, and at 300 million registered users, it is the place where professionals hang out online to do business. Having been on LinkedIn just over a decade, I've learned a thing or two, here are my Top 10 Tips for Boosting Your Visibility on Linkedin.

#1 Be Honest and Real.
Get a new professional headshot to be used across all social networking and online platforms. A smile is the shortest distance between strangers so use one (besides if we can't see your teeth, we may think you don't have any!) If you are suffering the delusion that you haven't changed in a year or more, suffer no more and get a new headshot taken. The whole point to online networking is ultimately to meet face to face. You want to be recognizable quickly and easily and avoid a dishonest disconnect.

#2 Be Clear and Focused.
Update your LinkedIn profile summary to accurately reflect what you do. You may have added a new position, a new key project, a new certification, a new degree, a new award, a new book since you last updated. Stay current. Each update is a chance for others to see what you've been accomplishing and notice your talent and services.

#3 Be in the Right Place, Right Now.
Join 5 (not 50) active LinkedIn groups where your ideal prospects are hanging out. Notice, this isn't a suggestion to join groups of your peers. You can certainly do that, but realize that isn't likely to be where you'll be growing business. By joining selected active groups, you become strategic in your use of time on LinkedIn and avoid the time wasting than can occur with non-essential online chit chat known to gobble hours.
