I’ve been watching, and participating, in forums for about 7 years now. I’ve seen a number of them degenerate into name-calling, trolling, and just general nasty behavior. It seems that left alone the Internet helps foster an atmosphere that is just plain mean. Every closet bully gets the opportunity to hurt others. It’s also a [...]

Remember back in the old days when a website was a website? I was listening to a pod cast (who knew what that was 5 years ago?) about Internet Marketing strategies this morning. The good news was not only did I understand every single word he said, I thought his material was basic. That’s progress [...]

For those of you that know me, even if it’s just through this blog and the one at TaxLoopholes,you know that I hate to recommend anything unless I’ve thoroughly researched it. A while ago I started researching direct sales companies. I’ve seen the model work, again and again. For people who work the plan for 4-5 [...]

Want to have more wins? Then celebrate the little ones that you get! You might have read a few blogs ago about my struggle with finding a home for an ongoing article (then blog) about tax strategy and asset protection for Docs. The blog then points to www.lesstaxfordocs.com. The first two magazines that I had [...]

Two months into the project and here’s where we are: Launched www.LessTaxforDocs.com. This is a landing page that comes from a blog I’m doing for a physician’s financial news site. Initially, this was going well. Now, I’ve submitted blog entries and they haven’t been posted (no new activity at the physician’s site) and haven’t gotten an [...]

I stopped watching the news for the most part about 2 months ago. I don’t remember a time where it was ever so filled with doom and gloom. The economic times are strange indeed. When you look at the statistics, we really aren’t that bad. I think the most troubling time period in my lifetime [...]

There is an area in the greater Phoenix area called “Queen’s Creek.” It’s too far from the center of town for me, but it’s a very nicely developed area. There are great schools, parks, good (but chain) restaurants and new houses. About 1 1/2 years ago when the market around here was exploding, a nice [...]

I blogged about this on Tax Loopholes a few days ago, but now I have a picture too! Here’s the short version. This past Saturday I spoke at Derek Jarr’s Live Free Seminar. www.livefreeinvestmentgroup.com He has a brilliant formula for bringing real estate agents, investors and deal makers together. For everyone who has gone to a [...]

In yesterday’s blog, I got some great feedback on the need to set up a website about me, not my company. I agree, by the way. But, it got me thinking about powerful people and companies in the educational, motivational, growth and wealth arenas. Most, I think, have a brand based on them. Stephen Covey - anybody [...]

I used to travel a lot. As I built up my database, I would take any speaking gig out there, it didn’t matter where. It was expensive (airfair, hotels, transportation) and the immediate income never covered the costs. In the seminar promoter world, I’ve discovered that there are two main schools of thought when it [...]
