DWP Episode 13: Learning Programmes Proactively

Dauntless Writing Podcast Episode 10: Learning Programmes Proactively.

Taking the time to learn programmes that will help you on your way can save a lot of time and stress down the line. These are programmes like Gimp/ Photoshop, Scribus, Scrivener, Evernote, podcasting software, video editing for vlogs/vcasts and sound editing software.

In this Podcast:

Best way to do that? Just do it!

  • Authorpreneurs need to think optimised;
  • Think of all the tools you need, and learn to use them on the trot in your own time, and not when the deadline looms;
  • Schedule learning time;
  • WordPress, Leadpages, Aweber;
  • Get e-books and watch video’s;
  • Always make time for learning before you need it, a counter case to just in time learning;
  • Always look for ways to optimise your writing business by reading a lot;
  • Write policies and procedures for your repetitive tasks (Episode 7);
  • This will help when you want to start to outsource that task; and
  • If you can’t buy the programmes right now, at least now you know about them and can start planning when you’d like to buy them, and then schedule it in.

Think win-win and be dauntless
