My Daily Journal Entry For January 4th, 2023

reading on my kindle

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas

Well, after a short break for Christmas and New Year, I’m back with my daily journal entries. I got up very late this morning as I spent most of the evening arguing with my teenage son trying to get him to go to bed. When I eventually got up I completed my morning routine. 

Today is day 42 post bone marrow transplant for my son, and we found out yesterday that his blood numbers had increased even further! 🤞.

Today’s picture is me about to read my Kindle.

I installed the screaming frog software and had a little play with it.

I also signed up for the Asana project management software and had a really quick play with that too.

Food Diary

Today I ate:
 
1 cheese and ham omelet
5 chicken wings, 2 sausages
Chicken breast in a tomato sauce with melted mozzarella cheese and ham
 

Today I Am Reading

My goal today is to read some of Build and Promote Profitable SaaS Business

My starting point for today is location 852 or 34% complete.

My ending point for today was location 868 or 35% complete.

My Learnings Today

 
Keynotes from the book today were:
 
When your product is ready, which mine is, it is time to attract your first customers. If you have a budget then you can test various paid campaigns but you need to make sure you measure the results. Results should include where users drop off in the app purchase process.
 
A cheaper way is to focus on Search Engine Optimisation (SEO).
 
Tip: is to focus on how to generate target traffic to your specific product, not the keywords we have to rank to be number one.

What did you achieve yesterday?

Yesterday (Tuesday 3rd) I:
