FEBRUARY 5-7 WORK ON GOAL SETTING
Hello!! and welcome to Section 2 of week 1. Goal setting.
SO now that you have had a shop critique and found all of your weak points, What would you like to accomplish by the end of the month??
Now that your shop critique is completed you have an idea of what area(s) of your shop you want to work on.
You MUST chose 2 different goals to complete by the end of the month.
You and your partner will work together to accomplish your goals, then critique the completed tasks in week 4.
Example goals for sellers/Partners might be:
- Retake photos for a full page of items
- Stock shop with a full page of items
- Rework all title and tags for one section in your shop
- Design a new banner and avatar
- Contact 3 blogs for a feature
- Create and start a Facebook page
- Schedule 2 weeks of blog and or Social Media posts
Keep in mind that these goals should be realistic and manageable in the time of a month. This is not the place for longterm major milestones like “become a top seller or quit your day job within the next three years”.
What is required of you:
1) Check into the Module thread once daily by posting what you are working on today, and what you have completed.
2) Read and review the SMART Goal system

3) Download the Goal Setting worksheet, PRINT IT OUT TWICE, and start filling it in with pen and paper.
USE ONE WORKSHEET FOR EACH GOAL. (Remember you need 2 goals)

- What materials, tools and knowledge will you need?
- How much time will this goal take?
- Will it challenge you to develop your shop?
- How will this goal enhance your shop?
- By which dates will you need to achieve each element of your goal?
5) Pat yourself on the back for completing week 1, take a nap and get ready for week 2!!!
It is suggested 1 hour per week for this module, you can either do it all in one day or spread it out throughout the week.
All of your communication is expected to be posted in the module thread. You can of course send friendly messages through Etsy convo, but then please COPY and PASTE the conversation here. It is expected for every team member to see your progress and learn.
