A lot of people “guru bash” these days, and say ‘they all just promote each others launches and it’s impossible for anyone else to break in…’ I personally think that kind of attitude will get you NO WHERE – but those people do have a point. So the big question becomes – How do you get connected with people who can help you promote your products? There are the usual ways: Twitter, forums, Skype, etc. but all of those fail in comparison to talking to someone face to face and really getting to know them (having a beer while you talk is optional). The connection and trust that can be formed so quickly in person would take you months, if not years, to achieve in any online medium… Not to mention that online, most big names are busy people and have “gate keepers” to handle most of their email...

I found this somewhere – can’t remember exactly where – but I thought it a good reason from a very successful man about making your life productive.  It’s not an ad for his new business, just some good advice from Donald Trump – a guy who has certainly “made it.” 1. RELENTLESSLY CONFRONT YOUR FEARS You can’t let fear — fear of the new, fear of growing old, fear of failure — settle into place in any part of your life. Fear has a way of making problems bigger than they are. The trick is to recognize your fears and then zap them with a problem-solving attitude, faith in yourself and hard work. Example: I owed billions of dollars in the early 1990s, and many people thought I was finished. Major newspapers were announcing my demise. The difference is that I didn’t believe that I was finished for one...

I don’t know how it happened, but for most of my work life I had a commute.  Not just any kind of commute – not I took on many long and winding roads to the office.  I’m not really sure how this happened, but  until I hung out my own shingle in a small country town, my lawyering days always included a few hours tacked on either end to get to and from the old homestead. When I was younger, distance didn’t seem to bother me much.  In fact, shortly after my former husband and I married, we purchased our first home in a beautiful country town in Massachusetts far outside of Boston where we both worked.  Maybe it was because of the timing – it was the housing boom of the ’80s and housing was more affordable far outside major metropolitan areas.  Maybe we were just a little...

In a happy grateful mood – grateful for my two sons, my life and family and being able to work from home.  Having gone through the years of wrong choices online, wrong people to work with, I’d just like to share with you and help anyway I can. It is never about your product, it’s about who you are as a person, and of course learning the “how-to’s.”  Having the learning curve somewhat behind me (I’ll always be learning and the Internet will always be changing), I simply want to offer help to any struggling marketers out there in any way I can……no strings! Have a blessed, relaxing and happy Sunday Evening!

1. You wake up on a Sunday morning 3 1/2 hours before Church b/c you want quality time on your computer.   2.  The first thing you check is Twitter to make sure the world hasn’t blown up.   3.  The next thing you check is Facebook and Skype to be sure your friends haven’t blown up.   4.  Next, you check your Aweber account to see how many people opted in overnight.   5.  Then you wonder if you could shoot a quick video before church, but decide that bedhead is bad marketing.   6.  The dogs want to go out, but you don’t notice they are there.   7.  You get made because you have to go to the bathroom and that’s going to interfere with your QC time on the computer.   8.  You wonder if you have time to write the article you woke up...

I am always telling Boomer friends that it doesn’t matter if you only know how to point and click, you can learn and earn doing Internet marketing.  It’s a good day.  I’ve been up since 5:30, redesigned my primary opportunity website, updated my newly resurrected blog, followed all my new Twitter followers, and organized a few emails for a follow-up campaign in aweber.  Four years ago – I would have had a CLUE what I just said!  And now I have the privilege of teaching my Boomer friends how to do this and how to earn money online with a home based business that can last.  And so much of the learning is free – that’s what I keep posting on Facebook and Twitter.  So for any Baby Boomers out there looking into Internet marketing and wondering how the heck to get online (especially if you don’t understand what...

Your blog is the “brick and mortar” residence of your entire business, from which all else flows. It is Your nerve center, your home on the Internet. Without it – you are not in business. I learned this all too clearly when I “lost” my blog to cyberspace last week. It was something I knew on a certain level, but didn’t realize the magnitude of the loss until I tried to “go to work” and I realized my “office” was gone. The world of Internet marketing is not about your product, your company, the best this or that, it is about YOU, and you have to reside somewhere. Somewhere where people get to know and understand you, somewhere where you can add value to the Internet marketing and buying universe. Now, I am in the process of rebuilding my blog, which will be better than the last, I hope,...

Simply put – there is no better, nicer, higher paying opportunity on the Internet that will allow you to earn thousands and travel at the same time.  It is THE way to opt-out of any financial problems you may ever have!  Baby Boomers are not looking for flashy websites, scammy promises and flimsy programs.  We have been in business and seen how it goes – and this one couldn’t have lasted over 25 years even without an income op associated with it were it not an excellent opportunity standing on its own.  Earn $1,000 commissions on your sales and travel 52 weeks a year if you want or can.  Sometimes as low as $99 for a suite (not per person) in a five star resort!  And they are all 3 to 5 star resorts all over the world, never higher than $799 week for the suite.  Travel and earn...

That reminds me I am a Baby Boomer.  Those were the words you didn’t want to hear when you were watching your favorite TV show, whether it was Lost in Space or Gunsmoke or LaughIn.  But, they apply here.  The treatment to stop Lyme disease not only makes me feel sick, it makes me feel – well, somewhat certifiable.  Not someone to be left alone with a telephone, Internet connection or heaven forbid call a press conference.  So this is going to take longer to rebuild than I thought.  I was offered the second string to go after the Lyme, but it usually takes the nukes to work on me so I am going to tough it out.
