How do you maintain success?

I was just wondering how everyone else maintains their success?

My sales reached a record high for me this month and now I'm just completely nervous about how to maintain this level of success. I've been really stretched this month keeping up with the orders and balancing everything else in my life, but of course, I want to keep it going.

Does anyone else have advice on how they manage this?

Re: How do you maintain success?

What a great post! I'm in the same boat, but I'm nervous about I how I can maintain keeping up with the orders, raising my family and having any time for sleep, the gym, etc. While I love getting orders (of course), I'm not sure I can handle this pace for an extended period of time.

And of course, I have no time to promote because I'm always rushing to get orders out! For me, it was a lot of baby items for Easter so I'm not sure it's going to last. But when it slows down, I will go back to re-listing a few items every other day or a couple of times a week, promoting on my facebook page, twitter and giveaways. That always seems to help my sales!

Best of luck maintaining your success!!

Re: How do you maintain success?

Yep, the one question that is haunting me as well. I guess keep on marketing in every way you can. I once hosted a giveaway asking my blog fans to check out my best selling item. It got them to see all my listings and got me some sales :)

If you are stretched, slow down and take a break. That will help you work better and faster. I am now on a 2 weeks break from my work. Also, learning to accept that business keeps going up and down also helps. You can't keep your sales constant every month. Don't stress, enjoy your work!

All the Best !
