Ducker Digest: April, 2014 – My Monthly Entrepreneur Report

April 2014

Welcome to my monthly report for April 2014. I’m a little late getting this one out (I like to put them together in the first week of each month), but following the launch of Virtual Freedom, I treated myself to a little downtime, and a short vacation with the family to unwind and recharge after a month of non-stop book madness!

Before I get stuck into the in’s and out’s of what took place last month, I want to make it clear that I don’t publish these reports to ‘show off’ in any way. There are lots of other entrepreneurs that are out there that are way more successful than me. I publish them because they help ME stay on track, and because I know people love the ‘fly on the wall’ experience – and lastly, because I simply love looking back on the month that just was!

Without further ado, let’s rock it!

Ducker Digest: March, 2014 – My Monthly Entrepreneur Report

march2014

For the last two months I’ve published monthly reports. No, I don’t go into how much money I make (I’ll leave that to my buddy, Pat Flynn!). What I focus on is the journey.

The entrepreneurial journey.

In my January report I talked about speaking at live events, hanging out with Gary Vaynerchuk and the launch of my book minisite.

In February I discussed how I was launching a new podcast to promote Virtual Freedom, a course on personal branding and the focus I had on getting ready to host my first big event, Tropical Think Tank. I want to make it clear that I don’t publish these reports to ‘show off’ in any way. There are lots of other entrepreneurs that are out there that are overall more successful than me. I publish them because they help ME stay on track, I know people love to be that fly on the wall, and because I simply love looking back on the month that just was!

This report is a little late, as I was focusing on the launch of the book, and then learning how to breathe again after the launch! 🙂

So, without further ado, let’s start breaking down the month of March, 2014.

Ducker Digest: February, 2014 – My Monthly Entrepreneur Report

DD FEB 2014

Last month I published my first ever monthly entrepreneur report. I got some really good feedback from a lot of people on it, and so I’m excited to publish this, my second ‘Ducker Digest’ – a rundown of everything I’ve been through in the last month, lessons learned, wins, losses and a look at the upcoming month and whats in store.

I don’t publish these reports to gloat, or to ‘show off’ in any way. There are lots of other entrepreneurs that are out there that are overall more successful than me. I publish them because:

  1. They’re a great way to keep myself on track, in regards to my goals and overall business aspirations.
  2. I think that that ‘fly on the wall’ approach to showing how to ‘get sh*t done’ is a great way to learn.
  3. It’s just a lot of fun to put ’em together!

With each report I’ll be focusing on three key areas:

  • Important Happenings This Month
  • Lessons Learned This Month
  • Plans for Next Month

So, without further ado, let’s start breaking it down.

Ducker Digest: January, 2014 – My Monthly Entrepreneur Report

DD JAN 14This is the start of a new regular monthly report, where I’ll be sharing exactly what I’ve experienced in the previous month. I’m sincerely going to share the good, the bad and the ugly – warts and all, and with a promise of no BS.

This all came about following a post I published in December, where I shared the fact that I’d experienced burnout for the second time in my career. It seemed to strike quite a chord with many entrepreneurs and when I mentioned I intended to start sharing a monthly ‘entrepreneur report’, detailing what I was doing to run, support and grow my businesses, many seemed excited.

I’ll be focusing on three key areas:

  • Important Happenings This Month
  • Lessons Learned This Month
  • Plans for Next Month

So, without further ado, let’s start breaking it down.
