It’s the “Vision Thing”
Whenever you start a new venture, you have to have a vision of where you want to be in one, three or five years. It is this vision that sustains you through all the uncertainty of the beginning, and gives you the courage to keep doing the right thing as you lay the foundations for [...]

Been working today on a new blog dedicated to responsible Autoreponder use. You can get to it via the link on the the right, or here: http://mailboxstudio.blogspot.com

How do you qualify traffic?
All of us in the internet marketing world are doing everything imaginable to drive traffic to our sites. But, if you have an entry cost into your opportunity, how do you pre-qualify the traffic so that you are only talking to people with the resources to join?
If you splash the entry cost right on the [...]
Why the United States is like Clark Kent
Yes, I said Clark Kent, NOT Superman. I am actually referring to Tom Welling’s portrayal in Smallville (CW, Thurs. 8PM E). The family enjoys this show.. my sons especially are fond of Clarks lady friends. But we get so frustrated!
Watching last night’s episode, it suddenly hit me. I get the same [...]
Boston Legal
I swear at Boston Legal. It is one of my favorite shows, but I can’t figure out why. I love Alan Shore, but I hate his politics. It must be that he is such a smooth talker (like me).
I am a big Will Shatner fan, and he has a great character as [...]
Why can’t you get over the fence?
This post is directed toward those of you who may be hesitating to make the jump to starting your own business. Perhaps you are afraid of failure. Lot’s of home businesses fail, but it is nothing compared to the number of Brick and Mortar failures. I have worked from home for 15+ years, [...]

Yeah, yeah, I used to be an Ameriplan IBO (we called them brokers back then). I quit. Why? Cause I sucked at it. But, I did learn one valuable lesson: I knew absolutely nothing about marketing on the internet. So, 6 years later, I am one of the experts on [...]

Ok, some nuts on the internet have posted that everything you get with Zurvita Care Saver you can get for free elsewhere. What a crock. Here is a perfect example.
A couple of weeks ago, I was touring St. Augustine with some friends. One friend had her son’s birthday coming up soon, and she [...]
MBS 2.0 Campaign for Zurvita
A while back I released a new email campaign for Zurvita, based on some info I got from some people I knew who were a part of the start-up. Now that I actually joined Zurvita, I have had occasion to actually refine that campaign a bit — well, a lot, actually. I threw [...]

Ok, all you Zurvita reps out there, the Team1 Marketing website is good enough to release for general use. Based on the ubiquitous “true-team-type” sites I developed for Ameriplan IBO’s, but enhanced with some new features and colors, the site will provide the perfect information and training pages you need to capture and educate [...]
Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( None so far )About the Ameriplan Injunction
Isn’t it about time that SOMEONE actually mentioned the fact that the Judge in Texas overturned Ameriplan’s TRO against Zurvita? I am not going to comment on the why’s and wherefor’s of the injunction except to say it has been lifted.
In any case, all this crap floating around from Ameriplan reps talking trash about [...]
