So I’ve been meaning to do a recap for my 2017, as it’s the best way to set some goals, right?
I feel like 2017 was awesome for me but I can’t really know for sure because I never set any goals at the start — which was a huge mistake for me. As such, I am making sure that it is not happening again for 2018.
Here’s a look back of my year in Business/Sales.
Breakdown according to offers:
- VA Services — $4,770.10
- Business Development — $2,215.22 (includes commissions, from a previous work I had)
- Writing Services — $1,858.14
- Tech Services — $530.83
- Sponsored Posts for HMA — $427.70
- Web Dev — $47.06
- Affiliate Income — $44.94
Total: $9,983.98 (or Php 504,593.18)
Monthly Average: $899.45 (or Php 45,872.11)
Breakdown per month:
This may be a little different from the figures above; this 2018, I’ll try to source all my figures from one tracking software alone, which is Dubsado*.
- January — $481.73
- February — $574.41
- March — $855.69
- April — $593.01
- May — $1,413.39
- June — $933.87
- July — $536.48
- August — $728.79
- September — $1,036.60
- October — $1,335.31
- November — $1,120.52
- December — $1,287.86
In the last quarter of the month, I also found myself investing in various things for the business including:
- Course 1: 30 Days or Less to VA Success *— $158
- Course 2: Build Blog Freedom — $97 (monthly recurring)
- Keysearch* (for keywords) — $40.80
- Dubsado *— $34.20
- Domain* + Hosting* — $25
- VA Leads Subscription — $49
- OICI VIP — $24
- Facebook Ads — $11.03
For 2018, I’d want to be a bit more detailed complete with tables and charts. I’d be showing both income and expenses, plus a breakdown for each.
I am also working on making sure that my charts no longer fluctuates as much and that the lowest point that I make would be $1,000 per month.
See you in 2018!
