If this describes you, then skip this article! Other people would rather be doing anything else - even getting a tooth pulled (well almost) - instead of marketing. If that describes you, then start marketing 60-minutes each day. Now, I'm not talking about creating forms, business cards, etc. Instead, take 1 hour each day and "really" market. First use that time to design a marketing plan (review your business plan for some ideas). Make sure that your plan includes many enjoyable ways to market or ways you think you'd enjoy.

Without realizing, your marketing time will automatically begin to increase. Remember, if you get stuck... go to the web or your local bookstore and check out "marketing" information. There are rows upon rows of "how to market" books. So, keep in mind, you can market your way, market with integrity, and have fun, too.
