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 [...]

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 [...]

The analytical part of me loves the Landing Page game for making money. The TrustSandwich(tm) campaign at www.TrustSandwich.com has been successful for views, downloads, and “send me more info” conversions. BUT we were getting 3′ to the goal line and not taking the ball over. We have over 500 people who needed a TS NOW, but [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

My post about content has started a lively discussion in the virtual backroom at TaxLoopholes. Bill is searching out states and various specific income tax issues for the state. Megan is keeping up to date on sales tax and nexus issues. I’m watching regular income tax, estate tax and asset protection strategies. I’m now a [...]

I’ve become something of a Landing Pages nut lately. Every time I have a new sales campaign, I want a landing page. If I do an interview, I think, “Wait! I need a landing page to send people to…” The landing page gives you just 1 (or maybe 2) CTAs (call to actions) so it [...]

I began the Journey in April 2008, so it’s technically only been 1 1/2 months for me shooting for the million dollars. But, it’s been 7 months since my business turned on its ear. So, what’s happened since then. (1) I returned to doing tax strategies. This is earned income, but it’s highly leveraged because not [...]

Years ago I learned that a confused customer never buys. So, keep your offer simple and clear. Buy now and you get this. The only question is cash or credit? It’s not option 1, 2, 3, and you need to research. You are fighting not just for your customer’s money these days, you’re fighting for [...]

One of my favorite phrases is “The problem isn’t lack of opportunity, it’s choking on opportunity.” So, today, Saturday, I’m thinking about shuffling priorities AGAIN on my websites. RIght now, the next one up will be a landing page to go along with a series of articles I’m doing for a very focussed, niche market [...]
