Project Life Mastery

My June 2016 Monthly Goals Report

I have created a new and improved version of K Money Mastery which is called, Mastering Book Publishing!

Every month, I write a detailed monthly report about the progress that I'm making towards the goals and resolutions that I publicly stated on my blog earlier in the year.  This is my June 2016 Monthly Goals Report, which goes over each goal that I set and the progress that I've made on them so far.

Since I started sharing my Monthly Goals Reports a few years ago, I received such an amazing response from people on my blog.  People have been sharing with me how much I've inspired them or how helpful it's been for them by me openly sharing my progress.  It's my hope that you can take away something from this report that will help inspire you to achieve your own goals.

My 2016 Goals Breakdown

I’m now going to go into each goal that I committed to for 2016 in detail and share exactly where I’m at with it.  Also, be sure to check out the original 2016 goals and resolution video blog and my previous Monthly Goal Reports to compare my progress.

FINANCIAL GOALS:

1. I will easily make $2,000,000 in revenue by December 31, 2016.

Result: $123,838.26 ($765,777.69 total for 2016)

Last Month: $89,925.88

Income was back up in June, generating $123,838.26 in total earnings.  This was the result of income coming in from several promotions that I've done over the previous months.  However, overall, I need to be earning more on a monthly basis to achieve my $2M goal this year.  I need to be earning $166,666 per month, on average.  I'm expecting to make up for it later in the month as I get ready to launch some future projects, as well as continue growing my business.

While it may be impressive that I was able to generate this amount of money in a month, it's always important to keep in mind that I did not get here overnight.  It's taken me years of hard work, learning and consistent effort to build the multiple online businesses and income streams that I've developed.  I also often remind people that the money you earn is merely a reflection of the amount of value that you've added to other people's lives.  If you focus on adding massive value and helping people, you will be rewarded for that.  That is what I continue to focus on every day and what I'm most proud of.

This income is comprised of a number of businesses and income streams that I have, such as:

2. I will easily have a $1,500,000 investment portfolio by December 31, 2016.

Result: $1,100,873

Last Month: $1,016,058

I invested more in my portfolio during June, now up to $1.1M in investments.  I'm still holding quite a bit in cash right now, as it's always important to have based on different opportunies that come up.  I've also been making some other investments, such as a private loan I recently did for $125,000, as well as an investment in a private company in the United States.  I'll share more details of these specific investments in the future!

My investment strategy is long-term and buying stocks that pay dividends.  Right now, I primarily focus on investing on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), since I benefit from the weak Canadian dollar and economy.  Currently, my overall investment portfolio is down, however, I believe I've been able to benefit from it as I'm always buying when things drop and taking advantage of things.

The awesome thing about investing in dividend stocks is that I've been able to make a passive income of a couple thousand per month, as the stocks I invest in either pay a monthly or quarterly dividend.  So I'm not only benefiting from any capital gains, but also receiving a passive income from my investments.

3. I will easily explore buying a new real estate property by December 31, 2016, and if the opportunity is right, close the deal.

Result: Just browsing…

In June, I continued browsing online to see what is available.  However, the Vancouver housing market is extremely over-priced right now and it's somewhat discouraging me from investing in a property.  I'll continue looking here and there, and again, if the opportunity is right then I will consider investing.

BUSINESS GOALS: 

4. I will easily have at least 100,000 YouTube subscribers on the Project Life Mastery channel by December 31, 2016.

Result: 106,000+ (GOAL ACHIEVED!)

I achieved my goal in June and hit over 100,000 YouTube subscribers!

The Project Life Mastery YouTube channel is continuing to grow, gaining thousands of new subscribers every month.  I've been consistently publishing new videos and also have benefited from the authority of my channel now and all the hard work I've done over the years.

5. I will easily have at least 100,000 Facebook fans on the Stefan James page by December 31, 2016.

Result: 112,000+ likes on Stefan James (GOAL ACHIEVED!)

I achieved this goal in June, hitting over 100,000 likes to the Stefan James Facebook page!

The Project Life Mastery Facebook page has seen progressing slowly, at 67,000+ likes, but not as focused on it right now as we are doing the Facebook live streams from the Stefan James page instead.

6. I will easily have at least 50,000 Instagram followers on the Project Life Mastery page by December 31, 2016.

Result: 36,200+ followers

Last Month: 33,000+ followers

The Project Life Mastery Instagram page has been continuing to grow and got some good momentum during June with 3,000+ new followers.  We've continued to publish motivational, quality content on the page and utilizing some strategies to continue to promote the page.

7. I will easily have at least 50,000 e-mail subscribers by December 31, 2016.

Result: 80,000+ (GOAL ACHIEVED!)

project life mastery subscribers

I achieved this goal back in March, however, my new goal is 100,000+ e-mail subscribers.  I've been growing like crazy lately, which is great.

However, the # of subscribers isn't always the most important thing, as it's also about quality and engagement.  I likely will be deleting a # of inactive subscribers over the coming months too, which may bring the total amount down, but increase engagement.

8. I will easily reach and impact at least 3,000,000 people on YouTube (views) and have a total of 6,500,000 views on YouTube by December 31, 2016.

Result: 375,000 (5,900,000+ views total)

Last Month: 455,195 views

project life mastery youtube june 2016

Total views dropped back down in June.  It's kind of been up and down over the last few months, which is interesting.  Again, the ups and downs of business!  The only thing I can control is being consistent, continually adding value and publishing new videos.

9. I will easily reach and impact at least 2,000,000 people on ProjectLifeMastery.com (unique visitors)  by December 31, 2016.

Result: 102,149 unique visitors (633,142 total for 2016)

Last Month: 117,388 unique visitors

project life mastery analytics june 2016

The traffic on the blog has been strong and consistent as of late, which is great.  We've been implementing some new SEO strategies and publishing more articles/content, which helps to attract more people to the blog.  I still need to be attracting more people to the blog, which I'm behind on, so I'm hoping I'll get closer to the 2M uniques closer throughout the year.

10. I will easily publish at least 150 new video blogs on YouTube and ProjectLifeMastery.com by December 31, 2016.

Result: 16 video blogs (129 total)

Last Month: 22 video blogs

June was a bit slower for my content production, only publishing 16 new video blogs.  These video blogs were published on the YouTube channel, iTunes podcast and on the blog.  I've continued to improve my ability to produce high quality content and have been putting a lot more focus on this.  It's been a lot easier now that I've been building a team to help me run many of the other operations of my business, so that I can focus more on producing quality content.

In January, I launched the #AskStefan series, where I answer subscribers questions in video blogs.  If you have any questions for me that you'd like answered in a video blog, you can learn more about how to do that here.

11. I will easily re-launch K Mastermind and help publishers grow their business to six-figures by December 31, 2016.

Result: No progress yet

I haven't had a chance to focus on this yet, but will be a priority over the next few months.

12. I will easily create and launch a new self-development program that will positively help people improve their lives by December 31, 2016.

Result: Sent out survey

In January, I sent out a survey to get feedback and ideas from my followers on what they want.  I'll be using this valuable information to put together a new self-development program this year that will help benefit you.

13. I will easily create and launch a new online business training program that will help people make make money online by December 31, 2016.

Result: Launching in July 2016

In April, I started working and putting focus into this goal – Affiliate Marketing Mastery.

Affiliate Marketing Mastery is a new online training program that I'm creating, which will teach people step-by-step how to make money online as an affiliate.  I'm teaching how to build a brand and online presence, on a blog, YouTube and social media.  I'm also teaching a lot of marketing strategies I've used in my own business to attract hundreds of thousands of people online, as well as how to monetize that traffic/subscribers.

The best part is, I'm creating a series of videos where I'm transparently sharing the process of the creation of the course.  You can find the latest videos of the series on YouTube by clicking here.

14. I will easily create and launch the new Life Mastery Toolkit that will help motivate and teach how to grow an online business by December 31, 2016.

15. I will easily launch 2 new Amazon products by using the Amazing Selling Machine by December 31, 2016.

Result: 1 new product launched

In January, I launched a brand new supplement through Life Mastery Nutrition on Amazon.  It's a BCAA (Branched Chain Amino Acids) supplement, which I'm very excited about.  I've been taking BCAA's for years and it's helped me to build muscle and maintain muscle while leaning out.  I'm very happy about the quality of this product and the positive reviews it's been getting so far.

In total, I have 3 products that have been successfully selling on Amazon through Life Mastery Nutrition.  They are:

I'll be aiming to launch another Amazon product through Life Mastery Nutrition in the next few months.

16. I will easily be making at least $10,000 per month on Amazon by December 31, 2016.

Result: $10,217.75 (GOAL ACHIEVED!)

project life mastery amazon income

I achieved my goal of earning $10,000 in sales in June with Life Mastery Nutrition (my supplement brand)!  The great part is, I've been experiencing growth with my Amazon business without focusing on it much.  I have someone working part-time to do some work for it, but that's about it.  I'll be sharing a video blog soon, giving more of an update on my progress.

17. I will easily hire someone to run my Amazon business part-time by December 31, 2016.

Result: GOAL ACHIEVED!

I've achieved this goal in March, having someone spend a few hours per week to maintain and grow my Amazon business.  Right now we're focusing on some long-term, ever-green marketing strategies which will continue to grow our brand and sales over the long-term.

I'm excited about this, as the main thing limiting me has been time.  I'm now able to be working ON my Amazon business, rather than IN my Amazon business – which is the key to scaling up and something that I preach constantly amongst business owners.

18. I will easily hire a SEO person on my team to help SEO optimize my blog by December 31, 2016.

Result: GOAL ACHIEVED!

We achieved this goal in March, hiring an SEO master to do an audit on ProjectLifeMastery.com and focus on improving the on-site and off-site optimization.  We'll be implementing changes over the next few months.  We don't expect changes to happen over night, but to see the real impact over a few months from now.
