I’ve just come back from a more or less Internet-free holiday. At first I worried about the impact of not being ‘connected’ to my online business for my usual 24-7.

But with a bit of pre-planning it all worked out just fine.

• My daily emails went out on time
• I earned first level commissions (from work I had planned ahead)
• I earned second level commissions (from work others in my team did)
• The webinar my mentor runs for my team, went ahead keeping those who want to learn, informed

But what I did notice was the social media habits of fellow holiday makers – all doom-scrolling and could barely tear themselves away from it!

And it’s not just holiday makers – many marketers choose social media for their online promotions too, so I came back to the usual messenger pests desperate to solve problems I don’t even have!

By coincidence I stumbled on this blog post written by a colleague: Click here to see the video you wished you’d watched before you started using social media.

If you prefer to promote your websites in a different manner from social media, don’t dismiss Banner Exchanges! Learn how and why HERE – you can join free, nothing to lose. (If the site’s a bit ‘rough and ready’ that’s because it’s very new, so you’ll be among the first people to know about it.) It’s advertising you don’t need to be online 24-7 for.

Break free of the addition of social media!
