I did a lot of investigation and finally jumped into an direct sale program.  If you’ve read my other posts, this one made sense to me for the following reasons: (1)   It sold something that people already needed.  I didn’t need to talk anyone into it. ANSWER:  Almost everyone sends cards.  And if you’re a business [...]

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 [...]

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

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 [...]

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 [...]

Woo Hoo! I have a 4 letter domain!

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 [...]

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 [...]
