Book Review: “Free” by Chris Anderson

In book, business on July 8, 2009 at 10:56 pm

Chris Anderson’s awesome book, “Free”, is about a vitally important message for modern day business success. This is a must read if you’re serious about becoming successful. See Chris’ video discussing the book on Wired.com.

If you haven’t yet read this book, then please take the time to do so now and/or this week.  Putting off reading it, in my opinion, is equivalent to putting off your success.

I’m keeping this message brief so that I can finish reading it, as I want to keep practicing what I preach.

Success 101: Boldness and Perseverence

The 3 P’s of Success gives some wisdom nuggets that are vital to understand how “overnight” successes are made. The following information is an example of P #3.

While on our date today in Atlanta, my husband and I heard some (pretty good) jazz music playing. But they don’t play music on the MARTA train. I looked over and saw a jazzy looking guy who’d just sat down (he had a gotee). My husband told me that this guy was actually playing a cd player. The guy then turned off the music and asked other passengers and us if we like  jazz. I told him yes. He stated that he had a few cd’s left for $5.

I didn’t buy one, but gave him my card and told him that I help people learn how to market themselves. He asked me how is he doing so far and gave me his card, as well. I told him that I think he’s very gutsy and that it’s obvious he really believes in himself because he’s putting himself out there in a bold way. And I told him that I really like his music, as well.

I definitely believe he sets an excellent example of pre-success. Someone that doesn’t know him or doesn’t like jazz may not get it. But I get it. He’s doing what it takes, and as long as he keeps at it, he’ll see his dreams fulfilled.

Do Not Get Left Behind

ANSWER TO A QUESTION ON LINKEDIN.COM

Facebook and LinkedIn are each some of what Scobel and Cantone called them (rolodex2.0 and email2.0).

But, they also transcend that because they actually allow you to develop real relationships in real time without having to schedule an appointment or interrupt someone’s (or your own) workflow.

And now, Twitter is also, in my opinion, just as powerful as both, but in a different, simpler, and easier to manage way.

Also, as a twitter user, I stumbled upon another simple, yet valuable tool at

http://www.meeid.com/wwahhmpreneur/

Basically, I can combine and integrate all of my web2.0 use on that one little page.  It’s a very simple and easy to use tool with valuable, key information.

Facebook has also been doing an excellent job of providing ways to integrate everything, but so many choices can quickly become unmanageable and overwhelming.  Of course, LinkedIn has been improving in the arena of web2.0 integration, as well; and LI users need to pay close attention to the newest changes and incorporate them into their profiles and groups.

Because of the fact that everyone has their favorite social media sites, it’s so important for business owners and entrepreneurs to position themselves wherever their clients may be and to make themselves relatively simple to locate online, as well.

And, most importantly, the gurus of web2.0 are going to be found in the places that I’ve listed here.  These are the people that have learned how to make web2.0 a viable tool for themselves; that can teach how to customize it to your particular needs (i.e., for great nonprofit advice you need to be on twitter); and for the newest web2.0 and beyond innovations, you need to be there so that you can keep up.

The world has changed fairly rapidly since the www was invented; but this is nothing compared to the exponential changes we are now seeing with the advent of the social networking (web2.0) internet growth phase.  Don’t get left behind.

Hard Core Sales Pitch Disguised As Free Conference: My Experience with The Trump Institute’s Way To Wealth Conference

(Originally posted in July 2008 at http://businessblogger.dmjconsulting.com/)

I received a very nice special invitation with two free tickets (see the photo at left) to attend The Trump Institute’s Way To Wealth Conference. The invite also promised a free book just for attending. I attended the meeting at the Atlanta Marriott Century Center near Clairmont Rd in Atlanta on Monday July 21, 2008 at 1:00 in the afternoon and got my free book just before 5pm when they finally released their captive audience.

By the way, the confirmation letter claimed that this book is worth $29, however, the special “Trump Institute Edition” of this book was a very cheap paperback book that was barely worth $5.

I am grateful for the book, but just felt they inflated the value of it greatly.

This conference was much longer than I expected, and only cold water was provided as a refreshment for the 4 hours or so that we were at this nice hotel.

I felt that it would have been more informative, if the first speaker, Rick, would have slowed down a bit. Unfortunately, as he openly admitted, the purpose for this conference was to just briefly expose us to the information so that we would know they were giving expert information and to offer us a 50% discount on the current $3,000 fee for becoming a student of this program.

Then there was a second very long session, led by Steve, about investing in tax lien certificates as a way to have “no risk” real estate investing. I felt that was even more informative and the guy didn’t talk too fast, either. However, as he also openly admitted, the only way it would become a “no risk” investment was if the property was checked out and cleared in advance to be sure that it was valuable (i.e., either resaleable or rentable). So, the purpose for his portion of the conference was to give enough information about the tax liens to get us interested and offer a 50% discount on the $3,000 access to their training and listings of “screened” properties.

Of course they threw in other bonuses that, just like the discount, were only good for that day only, as it was the last day of the conference in Atlanta. Of course they claimed that you won’t need to pay anything else after the $1,500 is paid (for the tax lien portion), if you signed up on that day. They didn’t make that same guarantee for the real estate investing portion.

Well, I also know another person who has attended in another state. After I attended, my acquaintance complained to me, and I also took time to read complaints on the Ripoff Report website, stating that this group does ask for more and more money but doesn’t deliver much. I saw another complaint on Epinions stating that they do not return the money, as they promise with a guarantee during the conference.

I know nothing is really free, I knew at least to expect that they’d want me to purchase something that day. I saw so many people jump up and grab the “today only” deals that I felt for them because I wondered if they’d get what they were hoping for.

Honestly, I have never met anyone that has been successful with using this group. If you know of someone, please tell them to leave a comment on this blog with verifiable details.

I did find an infomercial rating website that ranked this at 3 out of 5 stars with ratings at both extremes and all in between, as well.

Here is a good dialogue about the Trump Institute on Yahoo Answers stating that it is not worth as much as what they are charging and that you can get the same information online for a lot less.

More affordable books, DVD’s and more are available for browsing and for purchase through the listing at the bottom of this page, as well.

I will update this blog as I discover new information, as well.

Business Tip: Save Money and Time While Adding Value

In business on December 7, 2008 at 4:05 pm

 

As an established business professional (since 1996), I have learned to stick with what works.  As the saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”  That is why I have been usingPayPal for my business (and personal) transactions for over four years now.

When a friend first made me aware of PayPal, I thought it was a gimmick and was so nervous.  But after seeing how it is designed to help both the consumers and businesses, while keeping down overhead costs, I began to use it to process my online and offline transactions for my customers.  It has always worked out well for me, including when I have had to contact customer service for help.

Add PayPal to your business as an added value for your customers and clients, and you’ll find it to be a great value for your business, as well, especially at tax time.
