Cut Your Losses And Move Forward….
Last week on Tuesday March 28 was a sad day for me. You see that’s the day I decided to shutdown viralniches.com a free and paid monthly PLR content and product website. Back in 2006 when it started and all of 2007 this site was successfully making a profit. In 2008 paid memberships started declining and the members the best I can tell were barely opening the emails that were being sent. My mistake was holding on to this website. I held on to a loser for all the wrong reasons and the main reason is simply I didn’t want to admit I failed. Finally with the burden of a site that was costing me money and a great deal of time as bad as I hated doing it I made the decision to cut my losses and move forward.
Hey if John Reese can close down his baby Blog Rush and admit he tried something and it didn’t work you can imagine what that must have been like. He just cut his losses and moved forward as much as a pain it was for him. This guy is looking at millions of hits here but with his testing he seen that his baby wasn’t providing for his subscribers what he felt it should. What a guy he is huh? I mean he could have taken this site and used it for his own profits but that wasn’t his intent. His intent was to help others benefit from the traffic that Blog Rush created.
Now if I take it in context my losses pale in comparison to John Reese’s let’s face it he invested over 50 K so not only did he take a personal loss like I did but also a hefty financial loss so I can be thankful that I didn’t face a heavy financial loss as well.
My intent for writing this post is strictly to warn all of you to cut your losses and move forward with your business. Don’t let the personal things get in your way like I did for instance, just admit you made a mistake and move forward. When you have an idea test it and if you see it can work take action and don’t ever let your past failures make you afraid to take action. Like Nike says Just Do It…. If everyone was afraid to take actions simply from a failure in the past we would still be in the stone age.
Even though my free plr site is closed I can still offer the free products and tools I’ve enjoyed giving away the past several years. It’s just going to be in a different format so visit here and visit often. You will be able to grab any and all the free stuff that I have always enjoyed giving away….
I hope you have enjoyed this post and that it has helped you in some way!
