Gail,
First of all, take a deep breath. It can be frustrating at times in starting an online business.
Ok...
You need a plan, do you have one? If not, sit down right now, and map out a daily plan to include traffic generation, website flow (what you want a visitor to do at each step in your marketing process), and call to action or conversion (how you are going to ask for the money).
This does not have to be a deep plan at first (trust me, it will get deeper as time goes on
).
Then...
What types of marketing are you using? Articles? PPC? Forums? Blogs? and...how are you using them?
What I mean is...
Do you have specific objectives for each of those methods? For example...
* Number of articles written per day...where to submit them...how long this whole process is taking per day.
* Number of blog posts per day...are you focusing on one post per week as "link bait", which is a post that is so fantastic that it makes people ache to link to it.
* Are you using social marketing? Digg.com, Stumbleupon.com, Reddit.com...have you set up
complete profiles at each of those sites and started participating?
* Forums...is your sig file boring as heck? Will it entice others to click on it? How long will you participate in forums each day?
* PPC (be careful in your niche with PPC). Are your ads written with keywords, but at the same time enticing enough to make someone click? How many do you have? What site do they lead to? Is that site a "capture site" to capture leads?
As you can see, there are a few questions that you can answer for yourself to produce the steps you are seeking.
I hope that helps Gail.
