Small Business Camp - Day 2 - February 24, 2008
I am so psyched to be sitting right here in the mist of the Small Business Bootcamp - right in the middle of all the excitement. You can feel it in the air; everyone is pumped up, excited, and motivated about making strides in their business. For those of you that missed this, you should've been here. It is so important to learn techniques to carry with you througout your business life.
One of the things we learned this weekend: delegate! I have a knack for jumping in and handling it all, and people know that I'm the one to come to for research, answers to remote questions, etc., and it's my nature to quickly either do the task or come back with a quick answer. I need to learn to delegate to take some of the pressure off myself, so I can concentrate on the bigger issues and bigger projects. If you keep doing the small things, you're never going to get to the big things, and the big things are what's going to bring in the big dough. Sound advice...lesson learned!
And Andrew is not dropping us like hot potatoes. We have formed what he calls a Mastermind Group. We have a group leader and we will schedule calls with our group so we stay in touch, keep informed, and help each other through this crazy entrepreneurial life we lead. We will also have conference calls with Andrew and all the Small Business Camp Network (graduates of the course). This is an awesome journey.
Always!

Small Business Camp with Andrew Morrison - February 23, 2008
In lieu of this evening's radio show, I am attending the Small Business Camp as we speak. This is an awesome experience that I've been wanting to do for quite some time. I finally got the opportunity to attend Andrew Morrison's Small Business Camp.
The event was to be held from last night, Friday, February, 22nd until Sunday, February, 24th, but due to the one of the worst blizzards of the season, last night's reception was cancelled and we met an hour late this morning at 10:00 a.m.
This is truly an honor. I have been listening to Andrew Morrison on NY radio every Monday as I was on my way to "the day job". It was the highlight of my Mondays and I was really disheartened when he was no longer on the air. So I sought him out by signing up to his Web site.
We are already learning so much. Andrew is teaching us to create a niche and make more money in the next 90 days, writing a blog, which I already have, financing your dreams, and how to maximize the profitability of your product. He has us all fired up with the 90-day marketing plan to jump start our business in order to make that $100,000 in no time.
We are definitely on our way with the tools he's given us today. We've learned how to acquire more customers, marketing skills and techniques, how to write sales letters and proposals to attract an important joint-venture partner, time management strategies to focus our time, how to delegate duties that will free us up from doing the smaller things so we can focus on the bigger projects that will bring in the big money, and techniques to expand and motivate a team.
I cannot wait for the rest of the lesson tomorrow. You all should aspire to grow your business and come out to learn some new tools to make more money. Dream big and execute!Visit Andrew Morrison's Small Business Camp: http://www.smallbusinesscamp.com.

Inner Workings of MLK :)
Hi there,
Merry Christmas and Seasons Greetings. Hope your holiday (if celebrated) was a good one.
This is my first blog entry. I'm doing this because I have so much in my mind at all times and I was told (by a professional) that it was better to put it down on paper, which gets things off your mind and helps you sleep. Hhhhhmmmm.... It could be more because I like to talk and now I have a captive audience. (Evil grin!)
By the way...I hate blogs, but have come to the realization that blogs can be a smart and subtle business marketing tool. So for those folks out there who just looooove blogs...here goes... Oh...if you'd like a blog for your Web site, check us out at Magnet Technology Systems where you'll get to blog for free with the purchase of a Web hosting account.
I'm currently working on some new (but mostly old) business ideas. As a classic entrepreneur, it's hard to stick with just one business. That is just not me and I'd really go nuts if I had to do only one monotonous thing. (For all my instructors and mentors at WIBO, don't worry. I've got my time management plans and goal setting in motion). I've always been interested in and have worked in many different business areas: technology, travel, creative, real estate, medical, you name it. My personality is varied...sometimes too varied...but that's me! For instance, I just completed a Commercial Real Estate Appraisal teleconference today (which totally blew my mind...thanks, David!), and right after that, a webinar on Professional Accreditation and Goal Setting for travel agencies. Go figure! My sister, Ruby, says I am a glutton for punishment. She's right, but I love it! However, I am mainly focused (how do you like that: mainly focused) on one thing, which is my travel agency, Above the Clouds Travel.
Above the Clouds Travel (my first love): http://www.bridgetowntravelagency.com/. My travel agency has been my main focus for some time. I'm currently working on a dedicated Web page/site for Disney travel, as well as expanding my honeymoon & destination wedding travel programs. Be sure to take a look at our Events Calendar on the Web site.
Stay tuned for more ramblings. I must sleep!
Always!
