Having a Plan B

Tuesday, September 2, 2008

5 Comments

Part of having a successful business means being able to always have a Plan B ready to go.  I think we may be on to Plan D already after last week. A big part of the BusinessToInvestment challenge is the websites.  And that means I rely heavily on Jorge’s crew at LatAmConnect.  Last week, Jorge was [...]

Leaving a Trail for the Future

I was never one of those “Dear Diary” types, but I love to read memoirs.  This blog, BusinessToInvestment, was set originally to be my notes for the journey for a million dollars in 2 years or less.  It’s been almost 6 months now and we have a few websites making money, but by and large, [...]

I’m going to start off this post with telling you what my family did last night.  Hang in there, I think it will all make sense in the end.   We’re spending more time in San Diego these days.  We have a place that’s a half block from a secluded beach.  Only the neighbors seem to [...]

Making Money in the Information Age

Sunday, July 27, 2008

In 1989, the Information Age began.  My son is only two years younger than the dawn of this revolutionary new time.  I spent the last few days researching the social and economic changes that came about as a result of the Industrial Age and finally, this morning, I had the ah-ha I was looking for. I [...]

Only One Million?

I’ve been speaking at seminars now for over 10 years.  I started doing my own about 8 years ago.  They are a great way to meet, network and reconnect with your clients and prospective clients.  But, wow, do they take a lot of energy!  Generally, I don’t get much else done the week before an [...]

My 2 New B-I Projects

Friday, July 18, 2008

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 [...]

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 [...]

Keeping Your Head Up

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 [...]

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 [...]

Working on the Road

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 [...]
