My 2 New B-I Projects

Friday, July 18, 2008

0 Comments

I’ve spent the last few days getting ready for the seminar this weekend (Loopholes of the Rich Charity Weekend) and in meetings, meetings, meetings. We’re refining and expanding our TaxLoopholes brand.  That will probably be a 3 month project that I’ll keep you posted on. For BusinessToInvestment (B-I), the Million Dollar Journey, I’ve gotten side-tracked with all [...]

Making Money on the Internet

Tuesday, July 15, 2008

Early on in this challenge, Jorge posted an article on 29 ways to make money on the Internet.  At the time, I remember thinking that it was so easy to just make money out of “nothing” (or rather just the flow of electrons).  Now, 3 months into this project, I find that I’m again reassessing [...]

The Return of Respect to the Internet

Sunday, July 13, 2008

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 [...]

Blogs, Landing Pages, Lens, Websites and Marketing Strategy

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 [...]

High Tech, High Touch

Wednesday, July 9, 2008

The second book that impacted me these past few weeks is “High Tech, High Touch”.  I’ll sum it up with this statement: The more High Tech we become, the more High Touch we crave. I’ve been really pondering what that means for my new tax firm, Diane Kennedy’s Tax Services.  Part of the reason that the model [...]

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 [...]

There are a couple of books that have really changed my thinking recently about the future of business.  One is “Meatball Sundae” by Seth Godin.  I’m doing a Learning Circle on this over at the First Class Lounge Forum on TaxLoopholes.com.   There were literally hundreds of walk-away ah-ha’s that I had from this book.

I didn’t post yesterday not because I didn’t have anything to say, but because I had TOO MUCH to say and couldn’t focus.  That’s a common issue for me, though.  I think it has something to do with being a big QuickStart.  **If you haven’t taken your Kolbe test yet, I really recommend it.  Everyone [...]

The Next B-I Project

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 [...]
