Warren Buffett on Time Management
Warren Buffett, the greatest investor of the 20th century, gave a valuable lesson on time management.
One of his staff asked him about productivity and how to he could be more effective. Buffett's advice was as follows:
1. Write out a list of the top 25 things you need to get done.
2. Go through the list and make another list of the top 5 things that need to be done from the list of 25.
After the staff member had made the two lists Buffett asked him to say how he would manage the 2 lists. The man replied, "I will concentrate on the list of 5 and from time to time I will work on the other 20 from the first list".
What would you have said?
I have to confess that as of this morning I would have replied in the same way.
Buffett's response was that you should concentrate wholly on the second list of 5 and treat the first list as a don't touch at any cost list until the list of 5 is complete.
The reason for this was that the other 20 items will distract you from what really needs to be done.
It is a great lesson and I'm going to give it a go.

Think Evergreen, Think Bread, Milk, Gas and Marketing Tools
I often get asked my people new to online business about which tools I use to drive my success and my residual evergreen income.
It has taken me tens of thousands to find the tools that work, along with 500 that didn't.
The FIRST good thing about these tools are that they work.
The SECOND great thing is that if you market them on you will make RESIDUAL income.
Why? you may ask.
Because all of these tools are EVERGREEN products. People need to keep using them and that means monthly subscriptions = monthly commissions for you.
Think evergreen, think bread, gas, think air - you can't do without them.
Check out these Evergreen Tools here:

This generally makes people uncomfortable
Human beings are very good at deluding themselves. But sometimes we need to face up to the truth,
And the truth in Internet business is related to the M word.
Not Mother, not Motor, not even Montana...
M = Money.
Why is money awkward? why does discussion about it make people uncomfortable?
I can only share my own experience.
For a long time I looked for FREE things, methods and programs on the Net. I was not prepared to make the step to invest any money to move my online business forward.
The turning point for me came when I started taking upgraded packages in traffic exchanges. I began to get more conversions and more sales.
Now many years later I pay hundreds of dollars a month for business mentoring and thousands of dollars for paid clicks for my safelists. I have proved the truth of the old biblical saying:
"As a man sows so he reaps" - sow cash, reap cash and again, "He who sows sparingly will reap sparingly".
I have to say it was a great day when I sowed my first $49 to get started with the MOBE 21 step program.

The Strength of Community based Business
I decided to rename this post add some comments and republish. The only way that we are going to become a fair and caring society is by embedding businesses back into our communities and making them accountable to us the customer. Big business has become global and lost its way. The profits don’t stay in the communities where they were generated and this removes a community good. The time has come to boycott big business and support community businesses where the owners live in the community they serve.
The original post was about Quaker Business practices:
Look at the Quakers - they were excellent business people that never lied, never stole; they cared for their employees and the community which gave them the wealth. They never took more money out than they put back in.
Anita Roddick
In a previous post I talked about big business greed and how it will look in the light of history. In this post I want to give an ethical counterpoint to big business greed. The Quakers live simple lives and have been honest business folk for hundreds of years. The key point in their business practice (besides honesty) is their attitude to the communities in which they have their businesses. They see the community as a supportive matrix for business where you have good stewardship and never take more money out of than you put in. That is they are net community contributors.
This is a far cry from the big corporates who display contempt for the communities that sustain them. They reap where they have not sown and take out far more money than they put in. Long term this is unsustainable.
Small business is what has made America great. We had community based businesses that stayed open for generations and made an honest living for their owners and a positive contribution within the constraints of the community. Eventually this is the model we will have to return to if we are to survive. Note: If small businesses in the USA payed as little taxes as the tax evading corporations we would be bankrupt.
Unbridled profits, like unbridled horses pose a danger to an honest way of business.
Be honest, support your community and prosper.

Who is your Customer?
To be successful in business you need to be able to answer the question, "Who is my customer"?
Why is this important?
Customer identification is important for the following reasons:
1. It helps you to match your product/service to a targeted audience
2. It allows you to focus your marketing efforts
3. It saves you time and the pain of dealing with tire kickers
We only have so much time available every day and we need to apply it to best effect. Having a targeted customer group saves time and makes your advertising efficient. Your messages can be written with your customer group in mind. This allows you to move from a scattered shotgun to an accurate rifle shot approach.
I market to people who want to start their own online business. I sell evergreen products that I know have high numbers of repeat sales which help me build residual income. The lists I use and my advertising efforts are all focused on this demographic. If you have hungry people they will want to eat the food you serve up. If someone is happy with a day job working for a boss then they won't be hungry for marketing that accentuates the benefits of working for yourself (e.g. How may takers would you have for selling a dinner package to people coming out of a buffet?).
Know your customer, meet their hunger and prosper!
Ciao

Driving Your Blog Presence
In a recent blogpost Mahesh Mohan shares three interesting points from an Infographic by Business 2 Community.
They are as follows:
1. 80% of daily blog visits are new.
2. Blogs that post daily get 5 times more traffic than those that post weekly or less.
3. Once you accumulate 51 posts, blog traffic increases by 53%, goes up by 3 times after 100 posts and by 4.5 times after 200 posts.
These are mind blowing statistics.
If you are using blogs to drive your web presence and marketing then these 3 facts will help you.
Mohan also shares that evergreen posts of high quality get enduring exposure. He pruned a number of his old posts and retained only 157 evergreen posts and his stats stayed unchanged. The lesson is that quality drives quantity.
Happy blogging

Experience not Theory Drives Business
You cannot run a business, or anything else, on a theory.
Harold S. Geneen
As Geneen points out theory per se is not able to drive a business. It may inform the business person in his/her thinking but it is experience that is the true business engine.
If you want to improve then try new things, make more mistakes and clamber up the experience curve.
Business is an applied science rather than a theoretical one.

The Secret to Accurately Predicting your Future
Today's quote is related to future success. It is increasingly difficult to predict the future based on the past, but Peter Drucker has the answer:
“The best way to predict your future is to create it”
― Peter F. Drucker
Following others will not help you here. You have to forge your own future. This is what entrepreneurs do. They create their own reality. You won't find them looking for success in increasingly crowded market spaces, but instead they are creating new spaces where they have first mover advantage.
Be a leader not a follower.
I can recommend a fantastic book on this by Peter Thiel, the founder of PayPal, called From Zero to One.
Good luck with your business pursuits.
Regards

Business is an Applied Art
You cannot run a business, or anything else, on a theory.
Harold S. Geneen
Geneen has it right which is why he was a titan in the business world. He headed up ATT when it grew to its zenith. Theory doesn't win the fight against pragmatic business experience. That's why it is good to experiment and learn new business skills from doing them.
Inactivity is the big business killer. Couple it with apathy and you are dead in the water.
Every failure is a learning opportunity, every success is an earning moment.
If you don't learn you won't earn.
Be bold and muck in.

Dr Kelp's Latest Quirky Find
Hi all
Just a quick message with a quirky find. I have seen a site called SheriHitz advertised quite a bit online. They had a compelling lifetime offer so I joined up. I didn't do much with it until recently when I tried out their multi-site option.
This is a feature I have not seen used before. Basically you submit your sherihitz multi link into other manual surf exchanges and you get credits when someone views the site in the new site. You get credits for unique hits but also for repeat visitors.
I have spent some time surfing there today and I have been surprised how many extra credits I am getting from this tool.
The best thing is that all surfers get paid cash for surfing. The higher your upgrade the more cash, but free members get cash as well. Where it gets interesting is that you get cash up to 6 levels down and the multiplier effect works there as well.
If you want to give it a try go to SheriHitz Signup
Kind Regards

Never Fear Business Fear
If you listen to your fears, you will die never knowing what a great person you might have been.
Robert H. Schuller
Schuller's quote applies equally to both your business and personal lives. Playing safe will constrict your ability to succeed. Risk and Fear are necessary but you have to keep them under control.
One of the initial investors in Apple who owned 10% of the company sold his shares for $2900 because he feared the company was going to go under. In 2011 these same shares were valued at $10.1 Billion dollars. This is an extreme example of the losses that can come from fear. The best thing to do with fear is look at it straight in the eye and think what is the worse thing that could happen if I took this risk and ignored the fear. Often the potential benefits far outweigh the downside of not proceeding.
Be bold, be strong and overcome your fear. Take Action Now.

Look out - the Future is already here
As William Gibson, who coined the term “cyberspace”, has said: “The future is already here— it is just unevenly distributed.”
You have the opportunity to apply the future now. Look for the leading edge, adopt and your present will be the future of your competitors.
There is no standing still in business, the environment is fluid and the change is continual. See this as a challenge rather than a threat.
Do something today.

Edison on Rules
Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something.
Thomas A. Edison
Rules bound businesses very rarely have the flexibility to accomplish things. The lack of rules is why start up companies can move to get innovative products to market quickly. The best job I have had to date was as the Chief Information Officer/CTO of a medical software company. We were small, fleet of foot and were able to focus on getting things done.
While I recognise that rules are necessary as organisations grow, make sure that the rules help the business. Some people insist on applying rules rigidly and this drives innovators and get it done people mad.
Review and reality check your rules now and release the creativity in your business.

There is only ONE Boss
There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else.
Sam Walton
It is easy to lose sight of the prime reason we are in business for. To serve our customers. If senior managers and boards stopped playing silly games and power plays the customer would be satisfied and the bottom line would be met.
The bigger the organisation, the bigger the chance of being disconnected from the customer.
Treat your customer like the Boss and watch your business grow.

Are you the Prod or the Prodder?
I am certainly not one of those who need to be prodded. In fact, if anything, I am the prod.
Winston Churchill
Are you the prod in your business? If you are then you are in the right place. Successful business owners are self starters and do not need to be prodded. Laziness or a lack of self-starting initiative will kill your business.
Winston Churchill was a prod from his youngest days and he accomplished much in his lifetime.
Get up and get going.

It is as easy to Sell High Ticket as Low Ticket
Many Internet Marketers do not realize a little known fact and this is that it is as easy to make High Ticket as Low Ticket Sales. Many people feel very comfortable selling low cost products and services but if you are advertising in the right places it is as easy to sell high ticket items costing $5000 as it is to sell products costing $10.
The other fact is that it is much more lucrative to sell high ticket items and some of the profit can be used to buy paid advertising. Another little known fact is that people buying high ticket items tend to be repeat customers.
How do I know? Because I buy and sell high ticket items. I have spent over $10K this month in business products and services. Whenever I see an opportunity I take it. Small thinkers make small sales, big thinkers make big sales.

Recession Proof, Bullet Proof High Ticket Sales
I just want to share with you an email I got from Matt Lloyd today. It challenges the conventional wisdom of what to do in a recession and also provides a system to back this up.Click the links in the post below to view the video where Matt explains his approach.
Recession-Proof, Bulletproof Income...
Argh... I've had a many of arguments about this lately...
Do you keep catching wind of this little thing called a
'Recession' ?
I wasn't even aware of it, as I try to stay clear of the
NEWS, that seems to only find everything bad that
is going on in the world...
And my business definitely hasn't been touched by
it anytime recently...
Here's the reason why:
There's only one way that I know how to keep yourself
Recession-Proof, and I can sum it up in one word:
...LUXURY.
"What!?" ...you may be asking.
How cute of you...
Listen: Here's the Hard Data taken from the nerds
working for Billion Dollar brands that go out and
collect all this information:
Despite the economic collapse, sales of luxury, high
ticket goods remained steady.
(Interlude: Not steady for me. My income has rapidly
gone up recently thanks to High Ticket and MTTB.)
Now, there are a LOT more affluent people than there
was a decade ago...
And surprise surprise, they're looking to spend...
On hobbies they like...
On making themselves better...
On bigger homes and nicer cars...
And on investing in Home Business and Money-
Getting Opportunities...
...Like MOBE teaches you to do:
http://trck.me/261628/
Even considering an economic downturn, people may
make slight modifications in their lifestyle, however,
they do NOT change their fundamental behavior.
...It's why Starbucks is crushing it even though a
Hot, Creamy, Mocha may cost ya $6.00.
Here's a simple solution to any money woes you may
be having, or a way for you to generate a NEW cash-
windfall if that's where you're at in life...
Luxury.
High Ticket.
You NEED to be offering them in your business...
Simple as that.
People are looking to spend $2k, $5k, $10k, $50k+,
IF it's beneficial for them...
And smart companies offer these options for their
customers.
Think G.M.
They offer a High-End Hummer for around $100k.
And they sell lot's of em.
But they also offer a cheaper model now, the
Hummer H2, more around $30k...
You need to offer BOTH...
If you're not offering these types of products and
opportunities in your business, then know that
someone else IS...
...And they'll get your hard-earned sale rather than
you.
How would that feel?
You do all the work...
Attract the sale...
Then...
Your competitor does nothing besides positioning
themselves better than you and they get the big
commission...
It don't feel good!!
Don't worry though, because worry will get you
nowhere. Flattery and taking Action will get
you FAR though!
MTTB will teach you everything you need to know
about Luxury offers, and better yet, you'll have the
opportunity to generate $1,000, $3,000, and $5,000
commissions...
http://trck.me/261628/
And you don't even have to create a product, sell
on the phone, or any of that crazy stuff!
We know you're busy and likely not Superman, so
you can leverage our System instead, and make your
chances of success that MUCH easier...
This all makes a lot of sense to me,
Grant

Business Schools Drive Conformity of Thought
Even though I have undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in business I find that business schools are becoming centres of conformity. Business is widespread and diverse and there is no one, right way of educating business students. Of course the best business education is hands on and involves starting or buying your own business.
As a friend of mine said recently, "business schools are now more about business (their own) than school". The early MBA programs worked because they were different and gave a general business grounding to their students. Now days the focus is heavy analysis and number crunching and very big corporate business. Big business represents a very small slice of American business life. Many very successful people have made large amounts of profit from small and medium sized "non sexy" businesses that provide essential services such as garbage disposal, recycling and truck spare parts and wrecking to name but a few.
If I was having my time again, I would have invested the money spent on getting my Masters in Business into a business venture of my own. Instead I spent many years in consulting that was well paid but where 2/3 of the day rate went to the consulting company.
So think seriously before spending what has become an increasingly large amount of money on your MBA. You are likely to get a much better ROI from investing in your own business where you keep the profits.
