Entrepreneurs: Myths and Legends|| The BBB is One of Them...

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 15:23:00 +0000

Accolades to my Friend Chris Swope for This original post...

Entrepreneurs here in the US have a very interesting phenomenon called the better business bureau. It is a so-called watchdog group that has attained legendary status in the business community. You're either in, or your out.... and too many entrepreneurs have misguided notions of what it's really all about.

The BBB Is NOT What It Seems

Some people mistakenly look at the BBB as a credible government entity that handles disputes between customers and businesses that is run by tax dollars. First of all, it is not a government agency, it is a private company. The common misconception is that if a business is a member of the BBB and has a good rating, then they must be a good, positive, and credible business. Another problem this brings up is that if a business receives a 'bad' rating, they are not able to dispute/resolve their complaints UNLESS THE BUSINESS PAYS TO BE A MEMBER. Sounds like a conflict of interest to me.

See the BBB takes "subscription" or "membership" donations from businesses. This means that businesses are the BBB's source of income (even though they classify themselves as non-profit). Businesses are their object of complaint. So, if I as a consumer complains to the BBB, they are complaining about one of the BBB's sources of income. Obviously, this is a problem.

Just about the only thing that the BBB does, is give the business that is being reported the opportunity to respond, only after they have paid their membership dues. What a joke.

To give you an example, I checked out my local Wal-Mart: they are a "member" of the BBB. They have had one complaint against them, but it apparently was resolved. So, they have an "AA" rating. I checked out the local Lowe's. They have 14 unresolved complaints against them and have an "F" rating. They are NOT members of the BBB.

What makes this kind of fishy is the number of lodged complaints. These stores are no more than a couple of miles from each other and so have basically the same customer base. I find it impossible to believe that the BBB has only received one complaint against Wal-Mart and 14 against Lowe's. This makes me suspect that a) the BBB is not recording complaints against their members; b) the BBB is not recording responses from non-members; c) the BBB might be "creating" complaints against non-members. Or some combination of these or others.

One final irony: if you have a complaint against the Better Business Bureau, you can't file it with the Better Business Bureau. The Better Business Bureau is not a member of its own organization!

Moral of the story: You can't look at the BBB as a credible source of business information. The facts they publish are skewed by the mere business model that they use - paid memberships.

Thanks again to Chris swope. Check back with the wealth practicum on a regular basis for our updates. Peace and success to you.

Entrepreneurs: Clarity and What I've Learned in 3 Years

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 19:25:00 +0000

I've discovered something.... something so liberating, so simplifying.... it's clarity. Clarity is essential for the home based business entrepreneur. I'll share some things today that will make a difference for you..... on CLARITY.

In effect, some real, no BS, Hype-free, unvarnished insight from someone that’s been successful in the industry for over three 3 years now….. pretty valuable stuff I’m thinking…

Clarity?? Yes, I said clarity….. perhaps the most important commodity available for your progress, sanity and success in business.

There’s so damn much noise in the marketplace today…

There are legions of pretenders out there… People who have no business giving advice on everything -- regurgitating stuff in ebooks, articles and emails that they lifted from someone else, all claiming to be the final authority on making money online, or ne.t.work mark.eting, or how to groom your dog or whatever.....

We’re bombarded by information, aggressive advertising, negative news, outrageous claims, people talking a lot of smack…… I mean everyone’s an expert, right? Or at least they claim to be….

In the meantime, so many of us are still looking for “it”, “the answer”, or “how it all fits together”…… well, look no further.

It’s time for some Real, unvarnished, un-hyped CLARITY….

But first, you’re saying “what qualifies you Matt on the topic of success in home business and online marketing”.

We love it when people ask that because we get to talk facts again….

1. 3+ Years successfully generating 100,000+/ year in profit for our family with our business.

2. Successfully transitioning from suit and tie (stressed, overworked, miserable) corporate 6 figure earner to home business entrepreneur/ stay home dad.

3. Successfully implementing the leading methods of marketing on and offline and teaching other team members how to do the same…..

4. Great relationships with some of the best marketing and success minds in the industry today – People who are mentors and leaders that get things done and aren’t afraid to tell the truth.

‘Nuff said….. you get the point.

Now for the meat of it…. [Clarity]… (drum roll Please)... What I’ve distilled after 3+ years in this industry.

Three things I believe that are important when evaluating any opportunity, business situation, or inves.tment on your part.

1. Is there sufficient leverage? Does it provide an opportunity for you to multiply your efforts through use of technology, other people’s time or money, or leadership example so you don’t reinvent the wheel? Can you work once and get paid on that work again and again? If you want to trade straight time for money, stick with a 9-5 job. If you want to create wealth and residual income, you’ve got to have leverage.

2. Is there marketing and marketing training in place? This is absolutely essential. You may represent the next vitamin that will reverse the aging process for the entire planet, but if no one knows, you’re dead….. I’ve seen more good people fail in home business with lack of marketing knowledge than anything else.

3. Is there a duplicatable system in place? If you want to do something creative, go learn how to paint, or write a book or take acting classes. If you want success with the shortest route between here and there, find a system that works.

Now, obviously there are a lot of people out there jumping up and down saying what you have to do to be successful….. some of it’s true, some of it’s BS.

All I’m saying is that for clarity’s sake, without these three elements it’s like buying a lottery ticket….. You may get lucky, but odds are all you did is make a little contribution to the lottery fund.

Finally, let common sense apply….

A business requires work. I don’t know of anything out there that doesn’t require some work. There are too many charlatans out there that give our industry a bad name by promising something for no work.

You must move towards the mindset of an entrepreneur if you want to get big entrepreneur results. Think like an employee to get employee results.

Practice personal development. When I don’t, my results suffer. I don’t know why this is, it just is…. I’ve stopped fighting this universal principle a long time ago.

There’s more to come. Next time, we’ll introduce you to one of the best examples of leverage in the marketplace today.

We’ll also talk further about marketing techniques and mindset – things that make all the difference between you working your job another 5 years, or being financially independent in 5 years…… You get to choose.

Until next time,

To Your Infinite Possibility,
Matt and Aisha Hempel

Entrepreneurs: Thank You Veterans and Freedom Lovers Everywhere

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 17:14:00 +0000

Today is a day that is often overlooked in the rush of everyday life online: Veterans Day. Before I was a successful home business owner marketing online using the internet to generate sales, I was a pilot in the navy. I'm very proud of my service, and I'm very proud of all our servicemen and women, and those worldwide who dedicate their lives to freedom.

We have a open society, freedom of speech, freedom of commerce and international capitalism as a result of the sacrifices of many now and before we got here.

Thanks veterans. We owe you a debt of gratitude and sincere appreciation for all you do. I'm able to work from home as direct sales professional marketer because of your commitment. I encourage everyone to say thanks to a vet today. It will mean the world to them.

Yours in Service,

43 and JOB FREE at 43: How Sweet it Is to Be an EntreprenEUR

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 15:43:00 +0000

Well, here it is November 9 of 2007, and I've been a home based entrepreneur for over three years now with my own direct sales, network marketing business (Liberty League). This posting is a summary review of my experience and lessons learned in the home business industry.

What I've learned.

1. People are People - whether they're employees working for a company or in their own network marketing business.... they're still brilliant, stupid, lazy, resourceful, loving, spiteful, vindictive, lying, giving.... you get the Picture... They're HUMAN for crying out loud, and there's not much we can really do about it.

2. The 80/20 Rule Prevails..... whether you're talking about people, your marketing efforts, technology, what works and what doesn't.... The trick is to constantly focus on finding the "20%" that provides you the most leverage.

3. Leverage is king. This is the official "Hempel Corollary" to the *80/20 Rule and it must be respected. Anger the leverage gods at your own peril.... find out more by going to my article on leverage at http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Create-Wealth---The-Secret-is-Leverage&id=511150
No one to my knowledge, unless they won the lottery or got a fat inheritance became wealthy without leverage.

4. More often than not, when something isn't going quite right, it's me getting in my own way. Mindset is so important and mindset is driven by the conversation we're having with ourselves on a constant basis. Do you build yourself up? or put yourself down? Be mindful of your inner conversation and watch your mindset transform.

5. Everyone is playing a game. What's your game? and how do you win? what are the rules like? Are you playing a big, juicy wide-open game? or are you playing a "late in the 4th quarter, up by 13 points" game of safety, no mistakes.... playing not to lose. All of us are playing a game here while we're on this planet and WE get to choose what the game is and how we'll play it. When I play safety game, i'm Flat, uninspired, ineffective to a large degree and low impact on other people and the world around me. I also don't make as much money.. which is an interesting parallel... isn't it?

Each one of these points is really a topic unto itself. I'll get more out there, but for now, this entrepreneur is playing a big game of life that will yield success, good fortune, huge positive impact on others and a new legacy worth bragging about.

Entrepreneurs: Are Baby Boomers Ready to Retire?

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 22:01:00 +0000

This blog entry is inspired by my friend Debbie Ruston, www.abundant-lifestyle.com . Really fascinating stuff around the baby boomer generation and retirement. Will anyone REALLY Retire? or are most retirees looking for the perfect retirement business? What we've found is that most retirement age people are more entrepreneurial than we previously thought... read on.

I recently read an interesting article on retirement, with some equally interesting statistics from the survey they conducted....Nearly 1/5, or 18% of men aged 45-60 who either retired early to start their own business or plan to do so said they expect to work for themselves "until they die". Among the boomer businesswomen, 12% said they will run their own businesses indefinitely.

The survey also found that this baby boomer group plans to work longer than ever. One in five said they expect to run their business for more than a decade while 38% targeted a working span between 6-10 years.

What the survey found is that many baby boomers are looking at this next stage in life as an opportunity to start new careers and new businesses. When these folks were questioned on why they want to keep working, 46% of men and 34% of women said it was mainly to stay occupied, .....27% of men and 31% of women said it was something they had always dreamed of......and 26% of men and 25% of women said they needed the money.

Don't you just love statistics? It seems like everyone feeds on statistics. I prefer a different message and that is ..everything in life is a CHOICE!! In their innermost hearts, most people want to own a business, they want independence, they want CHOICE in their life.

What brings more options and more choice into our lives? Money, time freedom and the ability to open our perspective to whats really possible. Three things, so simple but so elusive for most people because they don't really think they can do it.... they have no CHOICE.

Most will let fear hold them back from doing what they truly want. Take control of your life! If you have the entrepreneurial spirit, it is critical you honor that spirit and give life to it. Start a business today, even if it's selling lemonade at the roadside. It is truly liberating to have choice in your life..... Choose Choice.

Entrepreneurs: Play the Game on Your Terms

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 16:00:00 +0000

Every once in a while, you develop a truly meaningful personal and business relationship with an extraordinary person. It's like a gem, a secret weapon... a true source of entrepreneurial inspiration and action.

My associate and friend's name is Lawerence West, co-owner of Infinity Technology LLC, a premiere provider of consulting, engineering and contract support services to the federal government.

I've known Lawrence now for over 9 years, and never cease to gain valuable insight and ideas from him from a business and entrepreneurial perspective. He and I worked together at KPMG Consulting, then BearingPoint for several years.

He left a secure position to start his own business and has been successful in several ventures since 2001. We've remained close primarily because of our love of new business ideas, entrepreneurial ventures, being successful, and contributing to others. I'm constantly inspired by a guy who doesn't make excuses.... just thinks big, and gets results.

Find someone that inspires you, keeps you fresh and on purpose. Finding your own Lawrence will make all the difference as you move forward in your business and professional life.

I'll see if I can talk Lawrence into an interview.... and yes, I promise you'll be inspired.... to your entrepreneurial success.....

Class Reunion and an Entrepreneur's 3 Reasons Why

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 21:46:00 +0000

Well Everyone, here it is..... I officially attended my 25 year High School Class Reunion on October 6. I almost didn't go, but am so happy I did. It was an incredibly gratifying experience to reconnect with everyone and fill in the blanks of 25 years of living.

Of course, everyone wants to know what you're doing for a living and where you live. I got to thinking about what I do and why I do it. Why take the risk to be a home business entrepreneur? Why not work a job? I mean seriously, I walked away from a six figure consulting position with a well known international company to start a business working from home three years ago......

I've distilled it into three key points.... but first, PICTURES FROM THE REUNION

Ok, now the three reasons why I do what I do and will never work for corporate again.
And this is what I told my classmates who asked....

1. Money and Time: I had no leverage in corporate. If I am to serve as many people as possible and make the multiple six to seven figure annual income i deserve, I could not continue trading my time (Life) for money. I had to find leverage.

2. Flexibility and Family My daughter will never be warehoused in daycare. I waited long enough to have her in my life, I'm damn well going to spend as much time with her as possible:: daycare doesn't fit in that equation.

3. Flexibility and Family (part 2): My wife has a career she LOVES. Unfortunately, she's required to move every couple years as a Marine Corps Officer. As a corporate drone, crawling to work and back in the horrific traffic, I could never support her to the extent I do. I think Hawaii or Belgium will be the next assignment... nice... and I can make great money with my internet direct sales business from anywhere in the world. Now that's flexibility.

Happy Reunion.

Entrepreneurs: Disabling the Blocking Mechanism to Create Wealth

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 08:27:00 +0000

What is it that some people seem to have that seemingly attracts success, money, opportunity and and wealth to them? Why do some entrepreneurs struggle while others make money and grow business effortlessly.

I recently had a discussion with this gentleman on this topic. I use the word gentleman to make a point. I love this guy and his family who have taught me the art of allowing, the importance of personal development, and that we're all on our own journey. It's who we choose to walk along side that makes all the difference in that journey.

So why "Disable the Blocking Mechanism" as titled here? In our business opportunity here with Liberty League we do a morning "wakeup to success" call that is designed to address a topic of personal development or business building...... a great way for everyone to get together to start the day.

We're talking this week about "being complete" with success and how important that is to the art of allowing. So many people throw up a blocking mechanism around success in business and making money.

It's part of our conditioning in many cases to find something wrong in a success situation. So the next time you find yourself making something wrong in the midst of a success:: STOP, take a deep breath, and remove the blocking mechanism.

Be complete with the success, practice the art of allowing, and be the successful, money attracting, success- attracting entrepreneur you are. Wealth creation begins with how we think, and how willing we are to disable our blocking mechanisms. It's a choice, choose well.

Entrepreneurs: Clarity Through Contrast Diagnostic to Achieve Results

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 06 Sep 2007 09:06:00 +0000

Why would I give up a promising corporate career as a successful management consultant for BearingPoint? People ask me all the time why I quit my job and went into the home based business industry. The video above of my daughter Abigail says it all.

I live in suburban Washington DC where it's all about the commute, the government or contractor job, and climbing the corporate ladder. It's incredible how many people are stuck in a way of life that is simply not congruent with who they really are and what they really want.

I've become very successful in assisting the typical employee or executive that has lost their way in transitioning to successful entrepreneurship. There are some very simple, proven strategies that I employ with people to assist them in achieving the lifestyle they really desire.

Frankly, though, it begins with a clarity of perspective that someone really must assess where they are. They must be real with themselves about the situation they've created and where they want to be.

I call this "Clarity through Contrast". It's a very powerful diagnostic exercise where I have an individual who really wants a change in their lives to list out all of the things they have that that don't want (long commute, limited income, no time with family, caustic corporate politics), and identify the opposite, or contrast to those undesirable attributes.

It works every time. People are able to solidify their purpose, what's really important to them, in priority order. This one diagnostic exercise can make all the difference for a worn out executive.

Contact me today for your Clarity through Contrast Diagnostic. Discover how you can create the lifestyle of your choice and get out of the rat race of corporate politics. Entrepreneurs in home businesses are quietly emerging as a powerhouse in todays marketplace. People helping people make money and be home with their kids.

There's a better way.

Entrepreneurs: the 80/20 Rule and Keeping the Main Thing

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 17:17:00 +0000

In my Liberty League direct sales business, profits are huge and entrpreprenurs are looking for ways to make more money in direct sales using leverage. Marketing is also very important to grow business and get new customers. It's critical, though, to understand that leverage is the most powerful force in being profitable.

Identifying the areas of most significance leverage is critical in other words

The 80/20 rule was originally proposed by an Italian philospher, Pareto several centuries ago. He stated that 80 percent of your business would come from 20 percent of your customers, 80 percent of your problems would come from 20 percent of your customers and 80 percent of productivity comes from completing 20% of your tasks.

So think about how you prioritize your day and the things you have to do. What can be delegated? Outsourced? completed by your spouse, kids? associates? Keep the main thing the main thing and recognize that 80% of your benefit and profitabilty will come from 20% of your efforts. Thinking like an entrepreur, in home business direct sales.

Keeping the Main thing....

Entrepreneurs: Zig Zag to Success in Business

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 26 Aug 2007 16:52:00 +0000

This is an excellent article By T. Harv Eker of the Secrets of the Millionaire Mind Book. It's required reading for all entrepreneurs in direct sales business to create wealth in business planning.

T.Harv Eker is the author of The Millionaire Mind: Mastering the Inner Game of Wealth. I've gotten huge results from his book and his message.
--------------------------------------------------------
Zig-Zag Your Way to Success
By T.Harv Eker

Although we'd prefer everything go perfectly straight from beginning to end, our journey to success seldom turns out that way.

In fact the "straight" route is completely unnatural. Did you know there are no perfectly straight lines in the universe? Everything is energy. Energy travels in waves. Therefore "straight" doesn't even exist. Yet, notice how when things go a little off course, most people get frustrated, get down, and want to give up.

So why do we get upset when things don't go the way we'd like them to go? Because we have an "expectation" that is virtually impossible to meet.

The simple truth is that the journey to success is full of twists, turns, ups, downs, stops and reverses. By fully understanding this fact, you can now begin or continue your journey knowing that you, like everyone else on this planet, will have to "zig zag" your way to success!

The beauty of this knowledge is that you won't be deluded into having unrealistic expectations of the "straight line to the top" syndrome. Without these expectations chances are you won't get as upset or even give up, when things aren't going your way, because you know being off track is normal and therefore "perfect".

A good example of what I'm talking about is man's mission to the moon in 1969. During that extraordinarily successful flight do you know how often the spacecraft was actually "on course"? Believe it or not, it was straight on path only 3 percent of the time. That means it spent 97 percent of the time, "off course"! That also means it spent the majority of its time, "correcting".

The same holds true for the journey to success. Expect to spend a large amount of your time, "correcting".

This is why "perfectionists" have a difficult time being highly successful. Perfectionism is a form of fear. It is usually based in the fear of failure or the fear of disapproval. In either case, perfectionism often leads to paralysis. Perfectionists are scared to death of making mistakes and therefore either avoid taking action or are painfully slow.

The truth is, most people are afraid to make mistakes. It's no wonder, since many of us grew up being embarrassed or "punished" for our mistakes. Yet if you want to succeed, you must be willing to accept mistakes and inefficiencies as part of the journey.

I'm sure you've heard of Babe Ruth. He was known as the home run king of baseball. What many people don't know, however, is that he was also the "strike out" king!

Mistakes are our natural way of learning. They are the "feedback" we need for correction.

Let me share with you the Ultimate Success Formula:

TAKE ACTION, GET THE FEEDBACK, LEARN, MAKE THE CORRECTION, TAKE MORE ACTION, ETC. Repeat this process again and again until you reach your goal.

As long as you continue this cycle, and NEVER GIVE UP, in the long run, can you see how it is it virtually impossible to fail?

This month adopt the attitude that correction is natural and focus on continuously acting and correcting until you get to wherever you want to go.

The secret to success is to "zig zag" your way to the top. The secret to happiness is to smile along the way.

DAILY DECLARATIONS:

Correction is natural.

Mistakes are how I learn.

I expect a winding road.

I never give up.

I zig zag my way to success.

------------------------------------------------------

Mistakes will be made whether you like it or not. I recently read Larry Winget's new book, "It's Called Work for a Reason". Winget states acknowledging mistakes, making it right the best you can, and moving on is the best formula for leadership training and business success in direct sales.

Entrepreneurs: Direct Sales Business Model Works

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 12:57:00 +0000

How many times have you Seen MLM type network marketing business models that are complicated, hierarchical and beneficial really only to those that get in at the beginning. One of the things I counsel people on when looking to start a business is to look at a couple key things:

1. Is it direct sales - in other words do you get paid first and directly? or do you have to wait for the company to send you a paycheck (sounds like working a job doesn't it?)

2. Does it cash flow properly?

All entrepreneurs look at the big picture of cash flow and direct sales to determine the viability of any business proposal.

Entrepreneurs having success in direct sales also depends on effective marketing. There are literally dozens of ways to effectively market your business. We teach many ways for entrepreneurs to make money, create wealth and be successful through effective marketing 101.

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 23 Jul 2007 11:18:00 +0000

Entrepreneurs, business owners, executives ::: anyone looking for the secret to being profitable in a high cash flow business.... the secret is leadership. I've been with the home based business Liberty League international now for almost 3 years, and have never found better leadership training anywhere than what we offer right here.

Last Monday we did a leadership call on "Purpose vs. Productivity" as a frame of reference. How to get the results we really want through being clear on our purpose, not just engaging in the busy work of the stuff we have to do in order to get through our "to do" list for the day.

We get the results that we really want to by doing our required tasks with a sense of purpose and reason why.

I went to college then got two graduate degrees, including a business degree. I then went to work for a big five consulting firm, and NEVER got the leadership training I've received here with Liberty League.

If you want to have better results, make more money, have more time and be more abundant, check out our leadership training. You'll find integrity, empowerment and a sense of direction and purpose common to all entrepreneurs and business owners who are getting uncommon results.

Entrepreneurs: Getting Rich In America by Money Magazine

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 03 Jul 2007 09:30:00 +0000

Money Magazine recently had a fascinating article on being an entrepreneur, owning a business, creating wealth and becoming a millionair. I found it very encouraging that Money Magazine was delivering the Exact Same Message I have for several years now..

"There's more to life, living, working and creating happiness, wealth and abundance than working a job for a corporation". More people everyday are realizing the power of the decision to do something extraordinary and reclaim their lives. Many times, this means shedding the corporate security blanket and becoming an entrepreneur.

This is it. This is our shot... individually and collectively. Do not delay, do not hesitate do not contemplate. Take action, do what your heart is crying out for. You don't have to have all the answers, just a vision, or even an inkling of a vision.

Noone ever said on their death bed "I'm so happy I played it safe...". Without a doubt, the most satisfying, uncomfortable, exhilirating times of my life have been when I have chosen to take a chance on myself.

Check out Money Magazine's article on creating wealth, and getting rich by becoming an entrepreneur. www.money.com

Others are ditching employeeism for entrepreneur ism. You can too. Be Rich, Be Free, see you at the top.

Entrepreneurs: MSNBC Reveals Fatal Flaw in Working A Job

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 14:08:00 +0000

MSNBC had a piece on this am that spoke directly to employees with a job, employers and entrepreneurs as well. "WORK PRESSURES FORCE SHORTER TRIPS". They were reporting on families taking vacations, and the pressures of work, omni present PDA's and the pressure to perform - EVEN WHILE ON VACACTION.

Is this what it's come to? As an employee, no matter how well you're paid (even more so if you're well paid) you're essentially an indentured servant to your employer! Mothers and fathers are continually cutting into the most precious things in their lives - their kids- just to maintain a job they're not even happy with.

When's the last time you really time off - and really be present with your family and vacation experience? C'mon.... really present I mean.....

You know, there is a different way. A diffent way to make money, to set priorities, and to be present with the people in your life that are really important to you.

I became an home based entrepreneur 3 Years ago. It was a decision that had to be made. I could not see myself working at the pace I was for another 25 years, trading my time for money, just to make it safely to retirement --- at the expense of my family and my sanity.

Do not think for a minute that you can't create the life that you want for yourself and your family as an entrepreneur, working part time from your home, assisting people all over the world to get what they want out of life, creating wealth and living a rich life.

It can be done because it has been done. It requires new thinking, new planning and new actions on your part. You can live with what you've got or you can reach out and grab what you and your family really deserve, wealth, abundance, time freedom, work from home, assisting other people with the best products and services.

You can be a millionaire if you want, but you'll never do it working for someone else and taking shorter vacations tied to a PDA or email.

I wish you well.

In Excellent Service,

Entrepreneurs Taking Action: Effective Marketing Strategy for Business Owners

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 29 May 2007 10:21:00 +0000

There are no Marketing Gurus; there are people who take action, people who talk about taking action and those that do not even know what action is. Effective Marketing Strategy for small business should be part of every business plan, but often, it's not.

So, which type of person are you?

Well, you are either a person who takes action, or talks about taking action because the people that do not even know what action is, are likely entertaining themselves with T.V. right now.

Effective Marketing 101 and 201 is all about taking action; learning that you do not have to be some Internet Marketing Guru in order to be effective at marketing your business, product, or opportunity on the Internet. Greg Nicholls and I are proof of that.

Effective Marketing is taking action on information that you have learned, or acquired, from someone so you may now have enough confidence to take action on it.

Effective Marketing is simple and it is easy, but it does take action on what you have learned, otherwise you are in exactly the same place as you were before.

While we are here to pass on some incredible insights into the marketing world and how it can work in your favour, now it is up to you to take this incredible insight and make money from it.

If you don’t, your competition will.

Here is the thing, action does it and whatever it is you do does not even need to be that great, it just has to be out there.

A crappy ad in front of a million people will do better than an awesome ad in front of nobody.

Take action today, you know you can! Join us at
