5 Reasons to Create Your First Information Product

When I was a kid, I remember the Lillian Vernon catalogues that used to arrive in the mail. Each page was chock full of items that had no real purpose other than they were fun to look at and buy.

As I thumbed through the pages, I wasn't dreaming about what I wanted to purchase (at 14, I didn't have much use for monogrammed teacups and dishtowels). I was picturing how utterly cool it would be to have a mail order business where every day checks arrived, as if by magic, in my mailbox.

Are You Creating Celebrity with Integrity Marketing?

The real secret behind successful marketing is realizing that marketing is really about building relationships. As you promote yourself to potential clients you are really building their interest and their understanding of what you do and their trust in you in that you can help them with a solution to their problem.

Part of this relationship building experience is to increase your visibility so you get noticed and build your credibility, so that they view you as a specialist in a certain area. Many people call this being a "rock star" in your market. As a conscious entrepreneur, I know that most of you are more modest and rock star makes you cringe. I like to call it creating "Celebrity with Integrity." You are creating "celebrity exposure"

Invest in Tax Lien Certificates and Tax Deeds Tax Free

Did you know that you could use money from a self-directed IRA account to invest in tax lien certificates or tax deeds? I've interviewed retirement account specialists from two different self-directed IRA companies; EntrustCAMA and Equity Trust Company, and I've learned that it is possible to invest tax free in tax lien certificates and tax deeds with a self-directed IRA.

If you use money from a regular self-directed IRA account to invest in tax lien certificates or tax deeds, than your money grows tax free until you withdraw from your account after retirement. But, if you use money from a Roth self-directed IRA, and you do not take any withdrawals until retirement age -- you do not pay any taxes on your profits!

CAR FU: Car Buyer Profiling pt. 1

note: The following refers to pre-owned vehicles. Generally, the only variations in the "cost" of a new car to franchise dealers is in destination or shipping fees. An additional variation for buyers is the notorious 'doc. fee', which varies widely by dealer.

Let's take two cars, identical in every way. The first one has cost the dealer $13000 to acquire, between the expense of the vehicle, the necessary work to prepare it for sale, new brakes and tires, etc. The second one has cost another dealer $12000, with all identical work being done.

Do or do not. There is no try.

I love quotes. I will sometimes buy a greeting card and frame it just because I like what it says.

In February I went to Walt Disney World with my family. While browsing through the Star Wars gift shop, I only found one thing I wanted to take home with me. It was a decal of Yoda with the quote, “Do…or do not. There is no try.” Like many of the lines in the Star Wars movies, it has layers of meaning.

It doesn’t matter what challenges you face. Starting a family.

Are you choking off your flow of money?

re you choking off the flow of money to you? Are you so immersed in "where is the money" and the panic, insecurity and frustration that goes with it?

This will shut down the cycle of flow into your business for certain. This negative swirl of energy will have you do one of two things - 1. Reach out with a lot of desperate actions. These actions are destined to fail because they come with desperate energy and your potential clients can smell desperation a mile away. 2. You shut down. You do nothing and sit in stuck-ness - feeling the frustration and doubt.
