Q4 is quickly coming to a close and 2019 is just around the corner. At this time of year, Amazon business owners will be thinking about their preparations for the coming year and considering what they want to accomplish. It is easy to overcomplicate these plans and end up setting unrealistic goals. Goals that are completely out of reach can be a setup for failure, so it is crucial to think carefully about future goals and take the time to outline the structured steps that will result in their successful completion.
Today, we share how you can set reasonable goals for your Amazon FBA Business in 2019. We highlight the different types of goals and how you should tackle them using a step-by-step approach. We share our experiences and how having an accountability buddy has helped us move forward and complete that next step. We also explain why it’s important to avoid jumping over steps to get to the end goal quicker.
