Scarcity Mentality: The Frugal Entrepreneur

    Internet marketing has a reputation for building businesses of thousands or millions with next to no investment. That’s great for people who are financially strapped – it means they have a chance to get out of debt or poverty. What’s not so great is that it attracts people who have a scarcity mindset as well. People who feel entitled. People who want more than they are prepared to give. Is that you? Someone you know? This evergreen article on my friend Kelly McCausey’s blog has some brilliant advice on how to handle that kind of person, the one who wants… Read More »Scarcity Mentality: The Frugal Entrepreneur

      Do You Intend, Commit or Resolve to Get Things Done?

        In terms of getting tasks done and building new behaviours, the word du jour has become intent. I like intent. I intend a lot of things but it has never got me to where I wanted to be and I suspect that is because I think of the word as a noun rather than an adjective. When used as an adjective it is usually descriptive and future-focused Often used in affirmations. “I will write a blog post daily with intent” just doesn’t work for me but it’s a lot better than “I intend to write a blog post daily”. “The road… Read More »Do You Intend, Commit or Resolve to Get Things Done?

        How Much Do You Believe In What You’re Doing?

          I received an interesting email just recently. Sure, it was a promotional email with an affiliate link to a product. But the content of the email was a bit different to the usual “my friend has this great offer you’re gonna love” type of spruiking emails that get thrown about. The email has some interesting and thought-provoking content and it’s provided here for you: Dan Kennedy here. I was taught the level or strength of your beliefs shows in your results. Another way to say it is that outcomes reflect beliefs, and the most important beliefs are, I think as… Read More »How Much Do You Believe In What You’re Doing?

          Contests and Giveaways – Tip

            I have not ever offered a contest or competition or giveaway for people to attend one of my live programs. Nor had Danny from Firepole Marketing. Now he has for his upcoming program. I noticed how he did it and it was pretty normal. Email the offer and explanation to his list. Have a landing page for people to enter. Have a basic question to meet entry requirements. But then I was impressed with what he did next. Once you enter you’re given the opportunity to increase the number of entries you get by inviting others to enter. Clever. Greed… Read More »Contests and Giveaways – Tip

            internet marketing - overcome obstacles

            Goals: Are Obstacles Stopping You?

              I’ve taught goal setting and achieving for years. I’ve had a lot of success with my course participants having accomplished many targets they set themselves. But you know the story about plumbers’ taps? Yep. I’m not as good at setting and achieving my goals as I would like to be. Actually, that’s not true. I set goals. Lots of them. I know my targets. What I am challenged with is keeping on to achieve those goals. It reminds me of a Henry Ford quote.   A lot of solopreneurs have this challenge. There are so many daily obstacles to reaching… Read More »Goals: Are Obstacles Stopping You?
