Your Farmer List

Your Farmer List

By “farmer list,” let’s call this the chores you’ve gotta do every day. They’ll be different for everyone, but let’s lay out some starters to get you thinking. Then, the real opportunity will be for you to lay out your own farmer list, inspired by what this one makes you think. And by the way, this might remind you of 19 presence management chores you could do every day. It’s not entirely unintentional that I’m revisiting this.

Daily Chores

* Get your blog post up. Make it helpful, worthy of comments, and unique.
* Comment on other people’s blog posts.
* Share other people’s blog posts.
* Comment back to people who’ve commented on your blog.
* Read something not related to your market.
* Connect with five people not in your vertical or your geography.
* Reconnect with people who matter. Drop an email or call. Don’t ask for anything.
* Look at the map of where you think things are going for your business. Anything change?
* Read the “weather” from the blogs you follow. Anything there?
* Think about what seeds you might plant for future projects.
* Share at the farmer’s market your best yields.

This is just a starting point to a much better list that you’ll write.
