Sunday, April 22, 2007 Income Producing Activites

I'm taking the day off on Sunday, April 22, 2007 but if you did some IPAs today please post below!

Remember IPAs are "Income Producing Activites" that you've actually done for the day, not that you're planning to do or hope to do but actually did. And they have to potentially lead to income... not just be administrative or busy work. Putting labels on Noah's Ark Workshop postcards or flyers is income producing ONLY if you actually mail or hand those flyers and postcards to someone! Filing your receipts, though important and necessary, is not an income producing activity.

So every time you think about what you're taking time to work on...say to yourself "will this activity make me money now or in the future" and if it won't, then put it aside if possible until you can do an activity that WILL make you money. Then do the admin type stuff after at least one IPA has been done for the day!

Make sense??? :-)

Addressing post cards for the mommy & me tea on May 5th. I also ordered the cards from Vistaprint- someone else mentioned that yesterday. I will finish them up tonight and put them in the mail tomorrow.

I spoke with 3 people at church who inquired about parties and also had a long, involved phone call with a lady about a Bella Bee party.
