Setting Goals is just bluff, taking action is the only thing making you go forward.
But its not just about going forward in the first place, where is forward? Well, for that we need very specific measurable goals.
Kinda cyclic, you need goals to achieve your dreams, but you need to know your final distination to set the goals!
Anyway, this is going to be very specific goal-setting activity. Come and join me!
If you just want to skip to the video, here it is! Although some specific goals and numbers might be missing!

The Goals
Remember that goals must be SMART
- specific
- measurable
- attainable
- time bound (realistic)
1. Business Direction/Plan
This 2022 I will be remaking (REDEFINE) my Business Plan,. There will be some re-Branding strategy, colors, names, themes and templates.,
Competitors, Strategic Allies will be described.
A Product & Services re-definition. Mostly on the standard content of courses, downloadable materials, video lectures, style, didactic, etc.
Market, Pricing, Discounts & Promo Strategies will be discussed as well. Mostly going into the “Monthly Subscription Program” Increasing single and bundle “One Time Purhcase”
Inorganic Growth (Ads) will be a strong key point in 2022. Inorganic growth especially for selling courses will be placed
Trimester Checks & Accountability will be issued constantly (every 3-4 months at least) as well as a report
2. Course Creation
By far, this is the one that excites me the most. Create more courses for you guys!
This is the core part of my online project. Its all about launching new courses.
Upcoming New Coures (Oil & Gas Training, Reactor Engineering, Free Process Simulators, AspenTech Process Simulation Cousres, Mass Transfer and most likely, Heat & Momentum Transport.
MiniCourses (Free Webinars, AMA, Q&A, Courses, etc) will be added to the offering (mostly free) to: add value, keep organic growth.
Course Standarization (Downloadable Content, Homework, projects, solved problems, tests, etc.). This is one of the most important issues mostly for branding, and customer engagement.
Update existing Content. There is a lot of value on the “old” courses, but must be fitted to 2022 strategy and student needs.

3. Website
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.
4. E-mail
As stated before, I’m not a great fan of creating onlin content via newsletter (e-mail) but I will make my best to bring value to you guys. Some educational posts, and of course video posts as well will be introduced.
5. E-Books & Content
Free E-Books – For growth and value. Most likely for general engineering purposes, i.e. “Best Rules of Thumb” or “How to get a job in the Process Engineering World).
For the Premium E-books, most likely into high value product, i.e. technical or simliar.
6. YouTube
This is also one of the most important pieces of strategy. This will halp the channel grow, but also will help dscovery of other courses.
Strategy:
- More Series/Playlists such as: Book Reviews, Tips for ChemE, Storytimes, Vlogs, Salary Review, Industry Review, ChemE News Reviews
- at least 1 per week. (total 52 in 2022)
7. Social Media
- Facebook: Keep growing audience, still not that relevant for marketing. Facebook Groups are still valuable for content distribution.
- LinkedIn: Keep growing the network, post more (articles)
- Instagram + TikTok: Prepare more content, specially “reels” or “stories” that better suit the platform rather than just repost from facebook (mostly video links or posts in image format)
- KEY: create actualy value to the consumer to generate trust.
8. Podcast
Podcast in 2021 was almost inexsitent. Marketing and growth was mediocre, so this 2022 there must be video content as well.
More interviews, more varied candidates, and air (publish) at least season 02 (8-10 episodes)
Also prepare Season 03 for 2023
9. Udemy, Skillshare & More
Still wondering wether or not try marketing in these platform.
Udemy
Positive: Good market, easy sells, valuable candidates and students.
Negative:No e-mail control, no pricing strategy, no creation of audience, mediocre payout
Skillshare
Positive: Relatively high conversion, students know price-value ratio, easier to promote for other courses
Negative: Not my platform, no control of student
So this is the main plan for 2022. Still in creation but for sure will bring something new for hte next trimester check in april-may of 2022!
