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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

What Will We Say 10 Years From Now?

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 [...]

MLMs - Vent With Me Please

Tuesday, June 24, 2008

I’ve been a CPA now for about 25 years.  In that time, I’ve seen a lot of different biz opps, investment strategies and out and out scams. One of the things people love or hate is MLMs or IBOs or Direct Selling or whatever it’s called.  There is almost a kneejerk reaction to them.  But, break [...]

I have two very different landing pages up right now:  www.LessTaxforDocs.com and www.TrustSandwich.com.  Both have a profit potential.  In the case of Less Tax (LTFD), I have a blog on a physician financial site and we are doing SEO.  We’ve had very few hits BUT every single one of the has been a potential client [...]

I just finished up an IM conversation with my partner Bill (partner in Diane Kennedy’s Tax Services, our new tax firm).  We were looking at different solutions for tax prep for our virtual offices.  I’m sure there are other medium sized firms who are completely virtual, but you wouldn’t know it from the solutions we’re [...]
