Written by Chris De La Rosa


Working for one ofrepparttar top Marketers online (David Ledoux) I've been lucky to learn many tips and tricks that can be used in cases of emergency. Like today when I still haverepparttar 135955 remnants ofrepparttar 135956 flu. One ofrepparttar 135957 first things I learned from David was planning. He plans for just about every or any situation possible. A number of years ago I got a weird request from David.."Chris, I want you to make a list of everything you do in a normal day" please include ...

- urls used - passwords and user names - possible situations and how you deal with them - how to accessrepparttar 135958 customers information, support email and shipping process for products sold. - in short..everything you do on a normal day.

So atrepparttar 135959 start ofrepparttar 135960 next morning I opened a new MS Word file and every time I did something I made note of it. Byrepparttar 135961 end ofrepparttar 135962 day I had a full list (very comprehensive) of everything that's done to all 3 websites to function fully, including keeping all customers happy.

The next day I ICQed David to let him know thatrepparttar 135963 file was done. I then proceeded to ask him what was this for, especially since it did slow down my day having to log everything I do. He explained... now you have a clear action plan anyone can follow inrepparttar 135964 event you have to train someone to do your job or inrepparttar 135965 event of an emergency you can call in a temp or have someone from a different department come to cover for you.
