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 [...]

Thanks to the eagle eye of luckystar on the TaxLoopholes forum (http://www.TaxLoopholes.com), I picked up a 4 letter domain on eBay.  We had a little bit of fun trying to figure out what it could actually be used for - it’s DKDB.  So Diane Kennedy’s ____  ______  is definitely a possibility.   I was surprised to [...]

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.

I have no idea how this is going to play into my “journey to a million dollars in 2 years or less” project, but I think there is some relationship.  So, I’m going to hijack my own blog for a week to talk about what I want to do and why, in a much bigger [...]

In 2007, I lost a revenue stream when a business partnership fell apart.  It got me thinking – what do I currently have that could generate more profit.  And then [...]
