Welcome to JVNP 2.0, Ian ... and I look forward to reading your contributions. You've no doubt heard a number of different solutions to the 'minimal success' problem, but I found ... when cutting my teeth online back in the last century, that treating my online business like a business and remaining focused on setting mini goals while avoiding 'shiny, dangling object syndrome' reaped small victories that I was able to build upon. Nothing glamorous or instantaneous, just somewhat structured repetitious tasks coupled with implementing, testing and tracking new ideas ... learning from the failures and doing what you can to replicate the successes.

Cheers,

Mike Sr
