Win A 60 Minute Makeover

What would your business look like if I deconstructed, dissected, and detailed the areas where you are facing the biggest challenges and reworked them so they became the biggest profit centers of your newly remade, reorganized business?

I’m going to do that for ONE lucky person on my list, so they can experience a true feeling of independence on July 4th.

This is an opportunity for you to work with me, one-on-one, no holds barred, mano-a-mano, on your business – just as though you were one of my clients.

We’ll take apart your business, brick by brick, and replace the clay with solid gold.

If you would like me to re-engineer your business, in a lightning 60 minute makeover, absolutely F*R*E*E, you have to do only one thing-

Tell me why I should choose you?

Right now, I want you to tell me about your business, your single biggest strength and why you deserve to have me work on your business. When you post, make sure to fill out the private email field, so that we can contact you if you are selected.

You have until noon time on Sunday to submit your post. All posts submitted after that deadline will not considered. With that being said, please understand that this is not a race for the fastest post – I’m looking for the best answer.

One other thing. Today, Friday, my assistance Sheila did not come to work.

She refused to take one more phone call from people trying to "cut" into line trying to secure a spot in my coaching program.

Please – for the sake of harmony in my office – do not call and ask that your business be selected.

Regards,

Rich Schefren

    Thanks for providing the information in your manifesto and allowing us an opportunity to share our needs with you.

    We own a two businesses, one in a niche market (7 yrs) and one in the internet marketing niche (2 yrs). Over the past year we launched our first major product and hosted our own conference. Since one of our strengths is taking action and following experts’ advice with the courses we buy, these events were a success. Our other strengths include creativity to develop products, ability to develop and maintain positive relationships with customers, and integrity to stand behind our products.

    Where we need help is in tying together our products and activities with an overall strategy. Since the last Big Seminar, my husband has been looking for a coach that will give him direction and focus with our daily activities and our business plan. He wants to choose the most profitable direction to move in, as well as capitalize on his own time with the most important daily activities. We both have a hard time letting go of all the activities required of a business, but we know this is necessary to grow.

    We also need to leverage our existing products, customers and affiliates so we can move to the next level. Moving to the next level will require guidance from someone who will be brutally honest with us.

    Finally, we believe your advice will free up our time as we outsource our needs and perform in our strengths. Then, our children will not have the memory of daily seeing the back of Dad & Mom’s heads as they work continually at the computer. We will have more time to do what is most important – spend time with our family.

    Kerry

    Hi Rich,
    Wow, What a great opportunity for an individual to have an hour of your time. I can only imagine how many responses you will get to go to that next level of business success.
    I am presently a PowerSeller on Ebay. I am also in the starting phase of opening an internet store. I have choosen my product line and I am starting to design my site. I have also taught myself some HTML without any formal training. I realize I do not fit all the criteria for this one lucky individual. So, the reason you should pick me would be to show how you can take someone who has nothing, and turn it into a successful business. I am a quick learner, and give 110% into everything I do. I would love to have the opportunity to open an internet store that is successful from the beginning. That is my challenge to you.
    Some lucky person is going to have a whole new definition of independence day. I would be honored if you choose me. Thank you for your time.

    An entrepreneurs dream.

    Strengths:
    We have been in the retail bakery business for 25 years. We have sent 2 of our
    employees to the Culinary Olympic competition in Erfurt, Germany in 2000 and 2004.
    In 2000, one of our employees came back with the only gold metal in individual
    pastries. In 2004 another employee participated as a team member. The team won
    the silver metal. We are clearly focused on and capable of producing extraordinary
    bakery products

    In 2003, we closed our retail store, concentrated on local wholesale business and began
    the journey of creating an on line presence. That journey began locally and as of
    February we have begun to market nationally. With 25 years of business experience, and 16 years of teaching ( my wife has taught baking at a local community college for
    those years), we can produce and ship unique real world bakery products and provide
    limitless educational and information products.

    Weakness:
    Lack of a competent and knowledgeable coach to guide us through the labyrinth of
    the internet . (this is one of many, but it is the primary weakness)

    Opportunity:
    The internet, in virtually every category, is seeded with impersonal and inadequate
    Products and services. We have the opportunity to be very dominate in our niche
    And the possibility to have my wife become the “betty Crocker” of the internet –
    Providing knowledge and products. ( As an aside, a few semesters ago, in a
    2nd semester continuing course filled with students from the prior semester,
    the class stood up and clapped as she walked into the room!! She is a great teacher)

    Threats:
    There are many, but as with most threats to a business, the greatest is a lack of
    knowledge. You can provide that.

    Thanks
    Bruce

    Hey Rich,

    Thanks for the truly inspiring manifesto. We’re already implementing your strategies and effortlessly saved/earned an extra $4,525 last week as a result.

    Here’s why giving us the benefit of your 60 Minute Makeover will definitely serve your goal of “completing the systemization” of your coaching program.

    Our greatest strength is actually a one-two punch:

    1) The demand for our unique and combined consulting services from Fortune 500 companies and leading “Social Profit” entrepreneurs (e.g. folks featured in Fast Company) far exceeds supply. We’ve grown our business over the past 10 years offline into a 6-figure enterprise.

    FYI, Our circle includes international leaders in finance, education and the arts, many of whom are ripe for what you have to offer. Rest assured that we aren’t shy about informing our network about top-flight resources.

    2) Thanks to a major life-transition last month, I’m 100% available to implement Internet strategies for the systems and infrastructures we need to take our business to the next level.

    In fact, I kicked of this year with Alex Mandossian’s Teleseminar Secrets course. Intensified caregiving for my aging father took me almost totally out of commission until he passed recently. Is it an accident that you released your Manifesto just as I’m getting back to serious work? I don’t think so!

    (See website, http://www.everydayforgiveness.com, for the inspiring story of how I’m turning the loss of my father into healing for the world.

    Are you aware that an estimated 17.3 million US women are desperate to learn strategies to care for their parents while carrying on their high-powered lives? Your clear, no BS approach to growing strategic profits is just what my sisters in service and savvy need. I speak their language. Show me how to implements the wisdom of your words for this niche and the case studies we’ll JV will generate wealth for multiple generations.

    Hello Rich,

    Thanks for this opportunity for a makeover.

    http://www.findnewmovers.com provides lists of people who have just moved into neighborhoods over the past week. The leads are emailed, ready to use. New movers are ready to buy, and we help businesses be first to deliver their offers. I want to grow this enterprise into a significant piece of a $100 million parent company. This month, we’ll add search-it-yourself and click-to-buy functionalities to our sales brochure website.

    Visibly, our single biggest strength is our subscription model, which conveniently and automatically lets clients get fresh leads on a regular basis. Invisibly, our biggest strength is the absence of weakness: after comparing the quality of our data with that of other providers, we have no real competition; our tech support is lightning-responsive and practically round-the-clock; we’re committed to creating systems that make it easier for customers to order and use our product, and give them marketing tips for getting high response.

    We deserve to have you work on our business because when you help us quickly dominate our niche, every business that our product is a good fit for will profit by coming to us for their new movers lists. On a personal level, I deserve to have you work on our business because I intend to grow this business tenaciously, like I’ve grown myself from a shy, stuttering boy to the not-shy, not-stuttering, much-improved, work-in-progress that I am today.

    Cheers,
    Mark W.
    Marketing & Sales Manager

  • Rachel

    Rich,

    Please forgive the slip of the finger that sent my reply to you thrice without as much as a “thank you” at the end for your generous offer.

    Believe me, I was raised better than that!

    No matter who you choose as the the lucky person for your July 4th offer, thanks for the clarity you’re offering us all.

    I listen forward to hearing more from you soon.

    Warmly,
    Rachel

  • http://www.laccstudent.com David Jaeger

    Dear Rich,

    Thank you for the tremendous opportunity to have you review and enhance my business.
    Although I generally hide it, I tend to be direct and blunt. In this case, if you don’t mind, I am going to bring it out. I think it will save both your time and mine.

    I would glad to have you as a partner, consultant, or whatever else you would like.

    Here is why you should choose me. You will find that I am a motivated person. I do not mind doing the hard work it takes to make something successful. Contrary to most people’s concept of the internet, I do not look at it as a way to “get-rich-quick”, I do not believe in scams or getting scammed. My philosophy is that “Why should I scam somebody else, when I c ould acually put in some more hard work, and feel good about helping them.” However, I do not want to remain poor the rest of my life, and I am committed to creating a business that fulfills peoples needs, and that I enjoy.

    In addition, if you choose me, you will find a person that takes concrete steps. I have spent many hundreds of hours learning about online marketing, offline marketing and programming, and can proudly say that my knowledge has increased hundred-fold from when I first got interested in the market. I have already spent hundreds of hours on the website myself, and have finally gotten an investor to have it profeesionally designed.

    My website is http://www.laccstudent.com. It started of as an amateur website, as you can see. It is currently under a huge site redesign, and will go live sometime close to september. The idea was to shave hundreds of dollars a semester of the cost of textbooks for students, by having them buy second hand online. This is great, because every student in college is plagued by high textbook costs.
    I live in a low-income area, so it really is disturbing how the bookstore-run by the government, is hurting these students pockets terribly. The proof of the success is that there are many successful textbook websites online. What makes mine special?
    Interestingly enough, many of these require you to enter the isbn number to do get the book comparison prices. Nobody has started a campus by campus database of textbooks.
    Until now- I am. It is a big challenge, as the bookstore is scared, but, legally I have all rights to the information, and I am getting it. Once this plan works, I plan on spreading from campus to campus. I live in california, and there are hundreds of colleges, and hundreds of thousands more students.

    I think that the idea is huge. There are so many opportunities, that it is mind-boggling. I have a credit card site for one, that I plan on linking up to my main student site. I can do a product search engine specially for students, I can create blogs and forums for students, and make money off the advertising, the opportunities are endless!
    In short, this is an under served “niche” that is huge. My goal is to get under the radar of all the big companies, and, as soon as I see success from my first website, to get financing from associates, and spread to as many colleges as I can, as quickly as possible.

    There are many people that I am close with that have indicated a willingness to work with me, however, I do not have somebody that has gone through their own internet trial and error, and knows what works and what does not.

    I think that this is an amazing chance for you to seize on my dream, and help this concept turn into the tremendous results it is destined for. I think that you have done a tremendous by service by offering your services, and I really look forward to having you help me with the strategy, web copy and etc.

  • http://www.InspirationPoint.net Lisa

    I listened to your audio interview on Mike Filsaime’s program–as well on the Agora CDs. All of the other speakers were discussing tactical aspects of marketing that we have a solid grasp on. But what you were focused on was the exact source of my frustration– having too much to do, in too many different areas and because of it, making little progress anywhere.

    I’ve built 3 multi-million dollar companies, from scratch. I consult with other business owners who pay me six figure fees for assistance in developing and implementing direct marketing based systems in their business. Over the last 12 months I’ve launched multiple online projects–each profitable from day one. In fact, one of the businesses we’ve started online generates anywhere from $150K to $500K in revenue each month.

    But the bottomline is, I can’t personally continue this way. One of my top values in life is FREEDOM–and while I may have the lifestyle–I no longer have the life.

    Here I am, sitting in paradise in FL, and I do nothing but work. Something has to change. I must find a way to manage this workload and systematize my business so that it can work for me, instead of me working for it.

    I know you are THE MAN with the plan that can help me. People come to me everyday asking… sometimes begging… for my help. So I understand how difficult it will be for you to make this selection.

    I’ll turn this around either way, however, I recognize the value of finding the foremost authority on any subject and following their advice. So thank you, in advance, for this opportunity.

  • http://www.a1glasshummingbirdfeeders.com Linda Kersey

    Hi Rich! Since I’m on the West Coast, I’m hoping you’re giving us a tad more time…It’s 10:10 a.m. here….

    My business has been constructed entirely by myself. Not because I didn’t need or want help, but because I started my business on a shoestring budget. I did buy a few e-guides to help me on my way, though. I am now on my way to success and finally in the black.

    My business focuses on my customers’ needs and the desire to make sure my customers are happy with their purchases. I look to build long-lasting business relationships with them.

    My single biggest strength comes from knowing I’m in this for the long-haul. While I am busier that a one-armed (wall) paper hanger, I desire to come up with a system that will allow me to focus on new business ventures and some free time as well.

    I deserve to have your help in my business because I’m the hardest working person I know (notice I didn’t say the smartest). And while I am quite bright, I don’t always work “smart”. I’ve learned a lot from past mistakes (which is time consuming). I look forward to learning from you & I would love to be one of your success stories.

    Thank you so much for your time and this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

    Dear Mr. Schefren,

    I will grant you a singular thought as to why I would be a good candidate for your “60 Minute Makeover” offer.

    So if you would Sir consider this thought for a few moments. You made a reference the other day to an individual who is credited and believed by millions worldwide to have been fully responsible for saving what today has grown into nearly 6 billion people on this planet. I refer, of course, to your comment of feeling like Noah trying to hold back the flood.

    Although I would venture a very large wager that there are a couple of aspects of that writing that no one has ever drawn your attention to in your life. The first being that in the vision Noah was granted that eventually became his Ark; there were absolutely no life rafts considered, designed or requested. Secondly when those that were instructed to come to him arrived; he turned not one single one of them away at all.

    So you were granted your own personal vision of building an Ark and there have been many who have been instructed to come to you as a result of your sharing that vision with others as Noah most likely did in his time as well.

    Thus my question to you is this- “Would you invest your “60 Minute Makeover” offer in a discussion of how this Internet Ark being built here could become one where no one who has come to you would be turned away and left floating in their little life rafts of “The Internet Business Manifesto”, they have been given already, only to be swallowed up by raging waves later?”

    So in answer to your question of why you should choose me; I have this response, “Because I personally believe this Ark can be built to encompass all those who have found their way to its boarding ramp, under a rainbow of Internet success that has yet to be achieved.

    Respectfully submitted for your consideration,
    Douglas P. Blackthrone, AEO
    Golden Eagle’s Monetary Solutions
    http://watt-is.com/

    PS: At the time of this posting it looks as though your offer will be handing out 199 life rafts. Is this truly acceptable to you, for if I read and understood your comment about no longer sitting on the sidelines watching so many dreams fail. I would not believe this would be acceptable to you.

  • Bob Anderson

    Hello,
    I think I should be considered because I believe I would represent your biggest evr challenge!I really dont know what I’m doing and , apart from flogging a few books and bags and jewellery on ebay I keep running round in circles spending more and more money and getting nowhere fast.I dont even know what time of day it is and have probably missed your noon deadline!But if anyone can sort me out you can!

  • http://www.thehealthandfitnesschannel.com Harry J. Johnson Jr.

    I actually don’t deserve to have you work on my business as much as the people I can help through my information and products do. (I sell an honest and highly effective exercise program as well as a healthy, and VERY tasty meal replacement protein drink) And the only way I can help them is if I can reach more of them with your help.

    Here’s a basic tenet… The most highly advertised products are usually not the best products. My field is Health and Fitness and I’ll give you some examples of what I mean.

    1. SLIMFAST – Everybody knows about it, and how it can “help” you lose weight. One of the most highly advertised products around for this purpose. Ever taken a look at the ingredients? water, milk, sugar, low-quality protein. Each serving has 34 grams of sugar (this is 8 1/2 teaspoons of sugar)?!?

    2. Ab-Doer, Ab-Blaster, Ab-Lounger, yada-yada. Think any of these really work? Think people get results from them? One of the most highly advertised pieces of exercise equipment in history. Yet Junk, Junk, Junk!

    3. More esoteric machines, wild diets, weight-loss cookbooks than you can shake a stick at. Yet, there remains only one core principle that truly will help people lose and maintain their weight for good. Yet, that information is not being provided to the masses.

    THESE ARE THE REASONS why I am asking for your help. Of course I would benefit, but others would benefit more. Are you up to the challenge to really help change the quality of life for many, many people?

    What would I bring to the table? A Never Say Die Attitude. Give me the basic template, point me in the right direction, and I will keep moving. As a business owner I completely understand all about hurdles. There is no free lunch even in the most perfectly of designed businesses.

    Want an example of what your coaching can do ‘IN THE EXTREME?’. Then choose me. Every other choice will pale in comparison to the results I will achieve.

    WHY?

    Because I have that rare combination of what you are looking for.

    First, I am a relative newcomer to the entrepreneurial world.

    Second, I have real products, not just information, this means you can offer this to bricks and mortar companies and larger established companies, typically a harder sell then the information junkie.
    Third, I have the means to implement strategies, hire people, pay for advertising campaigns (let’s just say I have access to mid six-figures in order to make this work the right way).

    Fourth, I will be an immense success REGARDLESS of whether you help me or not. It just so happens that you are catching me at the right moment in my business-building career – at the beginning. Now, I don’t mean that to sound arrogant, I just know my capacities. I do know this as well, without your help I will definitely go through a major period of the “school of hard knocks”. I would rather learn from the best and eliminate potentially years from my ultimate successs peak (is there really a peak though?).

    Fifth, I love to help others. This means I will be about as unselfish about this as you will allow me to be. Want me to speak to others and be a testimonial to your methods? You will find no better. Heck, when I won the 1998 Body For Life contest I spent the next year and a half helping others without pay or compensation, just the sheer fact that my knowledge made their lives just a little better was all that drove me.

    Sixth, I am able to communicate well, both verbally and in the written form.

    As you think about what you really want to get out of this, make sure you look at the big picture and all facets of the person and business AND… “HEART” of the person you will be helping.

    I have all the confidence in the world you’ll be making the right choice.

    I would like to start a membership site including webucation and marketing tools.
    I will soon post a capture page
    to start building my primary list. My main strength would be persistence against all odds. I do believe I will make it in online and offline business.

    I had a very quick start making over $1600 on my first ebook offer and I have made more then $10,000 in an hour but I’m exhausted, working too hard, and frustrated all the time.
    What keeps me going is the fact
    that my clients get amazing results with my ebook-writing and marketing courses and some have even written an ebook in one day.
    When I’m doing what I love it’s very rewarding but no where near enough time is spent in the work.
    Also I’m having a difficult time trying to figure out how to make my business work for me instead of doing what everyone else is doing just for the sake of making money.
    I want to succeed in a way that
    works for me and so far that isn’t happening.

    Once again, thank you and the staff for mailing so quickly. I’m interested in mathematics as you are. Online business has been my maximum goal to success and therefore joined and upgraded some affiliates programs.

    Hi Rich,

    Hopefully I made the deadline. Thanks for this chance of a lifetime. You probably remember me from the China trip. I sell belt buckles online. I have had relatively nice success over the last couple of years. With your help I realize I can dominate the fashion industry. My greatest strength is persistence. I know I don’t know everything about selling online right now. But I keep trying and learning and testing and learning. It would be awesome if you could help take me to the next level. I’m ready to go there. Thanks.

    I believe I would be a good candidate even though I’m late (our comcast service went down this weekend)because your assistance in helping me reach people would truly change many lives in ways I do not believe any other product or service can. My personal a Blessing to everyone I come in contact with. I have a company that sets people up with a financial mentor that works with them one on one for extended periods of time. Typically we can help a family free up hundreds of dollars every month, pay off all of their debt including their home mortgage in five years or less, and retire within ten years all using just their existing income.

    It seems that virtually everyone is out there trying to make more money. The unfortunate fact is that even most of those who learn to do so only end up broke at a higer level. How often do we hear of the lottery winner who is bankrupt a year or two later? For the most part, there is no financial education taught in this country and most folks, regardless of their income level, are simply broke–living paycheck to paycheck and never getting ahead. A firm financial foundation is essential if anything is going to stand on it long term, yet the number of people who have such a foundation is mind bogglingly low.

    My organization provides people with the ability to create a better life and a strong retirement for themselves based on the money they already make.

    Why would you help me? Because I don’t really need the help. I have a proven system and organization and do quite well for myself–but it is not an internet based model–and it is not about me. Helping us to more effectively reach more people through the internet would Bless many people in many ways, and perhaps pave the road to a long term mutually beneficial relationship between our organizations.

    Hello,
    Thank you for the opportunity to be picked for a makeover. You should pick me because I’m a great student, I have written 2 books and 5 programs and countless special reports, I have bought many courses and followed them. The one piece all of the courses seem to skip over is how to get traffic to my site, keep them their and turn them into buyers.
    I will work as many hours as needed and follow your system to a T. Pick me.
    Thanks again

    Dave W.

    Hello Rich
    I’ve been getting e-mails from all sorts of people claiming to be the answer to my problems and the problem i have with that is they all seem to be selling the same thing. However I believe if you hang with the right people some of their inspiration will surely rub off on you. Now i’ve spent some time reading your Blog and noticed that some of the guys you rub shoulders with are actually some of the same said people I have met over here in the UK and one Steven Pierce actually spoke it me at the Wembley conference centre with regards how to research your niche. This kinda got me thinking a bit and decided to drop you line to outline in a nutshell that I’m actually the sort of person who you could help, I’m very ambitious, dedicated and put the hours in especially when there is a need to develop a strategy. I have a number of sites all new and still in the development stages and all in different areas of business verticals. I have what I think is sound project plan in terms of how i want to develop this business. I’m also a strong believer in in doing things in the correct manner which includes the rules on marketing and e-mail marketing is an area where i’m getting feedback from seminars I’ve done, and i’m still a novice but a quick learner. I am beginning to learn that its not so much having a great looking site, but how you enable it through the power of marketing to ensure that the paying customer comes back time and time again and hence I believe I have have what it takes to drive it forward with the help of someone willing to take a chance on me. So I’d appreciate it if you would consider me as the ideal candidate to take forward.

    Stop! Your search is over.

    If you are an Internet Guru, who publishes free information to get the public at large thinking…
    If you have made millions of dollars by applying natural and intuitive thinking patterns that others simply dismiss…
    If you are sought out by all the other so-called Internet gurus for advice and guidance…

    Then you are wanted. No. You are needed!

    Wanted: Internet Mentor to help web-neophyte with no internet skills build a hugely profitable business around the client’s strength of writing, health and fitness and motivational knowledge.

    I have been in the corporate world for 20 years and I am ready to leave the cage. I have 6 months before my plant closes and I become “unemployed”. I recognize the Internet to be a powerful medium of communication and a means for a business to reach a worldwide audience. I recognize an opportunity for independence. Don’t misunderstand…if I can’t make it on the web, I will brush off my resume and simply enter another cage; however, I PREFER NOT TO.

    My friends and colleagues tell me I have a knack for writing. So I have been writing my own “manifesto”. I know I can help others to be successful, but I can’t very well instill confidence unless I have achieved the success or freedom I want to impart.

    I am better at helping others succeed than I am at helping myself succeed. I have no explanation for this conundrum.

  • http://greatchoicesforyou.com Hank

    It is my fervent desire to work with someone of your caliber who can light the entrepreneurial path and eluminate the internet darkness that’s plaguing my endeavor. To say that I am floundering is an understatement. Every word that has been written in both the Manifesto and The Missing Chapter is without question applicable to what is currently drowning me. Try as I may to “tread the cyberspace mud puddle”, I’m up the “cyber creek” without a life preserver. Am I in need of a tossed life-line? You betcha!

  • http://www.onlinemarketersgold.com Theo Kiers

    Why I should be picked for the Rich Schefren’s make over.

    Well that’s pretty obvious: I am your perfect case study.

    I am a 46 year old Dutch business consultant who has had it with, traffic jams, being away frrom my family, trying to consult to CEO’s who don’t want to hear your advice because they know better anyway, share holders value (as opposed to stake holders value) and not being able to make ends meet because I lack marketing skills.

    So looking for other opportunities I spend a small fortune on mlm programs (I love the business model), e-books, courses and whatever these clever marketers throw at you and eventually I fall head over heels in love with online marketing. I desperately want to make this work for me and my family. I am proving to the world I am because after months and months of studying, working my but off and spending more money than I can afford I am still hanging in there, refusing to let go.

    Apart from having tought myself to build websites and being able to (copy)write I haven’t got a clue as to what I am doing. But hey .. I’ve got a mastersdegree in management & organisation. I know how to study. Who says I can’t do this?
    Everything I spend my time on is new. A membership website with PHP pages communicating with databases, installing autorotators, getting an idea on how to generate traffic, finding niches and products; I’m wandering in the woods without a compass, having a great time, getting nowhere and the food is running out. Every single day my mailbox is jamapcked with newsletters and one fantastic offer after another. At the end of the day I have not been doing what I set out to do. I have read this, downloaded that, organised stuff , spend more money on must haves and got no futher on the road to making some money. When I finally get to do some work that I wanted to do in the first place I spend hours and hours on some IT problem and I am mighty proud of myself again to have solved it.

    Then comes along the Internet Manifesto. Being a business consultant I recognise my situation instanly. After a couple of days I am still stunned that, in spite of my knowledge about organising a business, the organisation chart fits my situation to a T. I have created a fantastic job for myself. I am even proud that I am mastering a several new trades in such a short period. But ….. after al those months I haven’t earned one single dollar or Euro. And the budget is getting tight, very tight. The only resource that I have left is time and I am not using it effciently. But I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. No funds to outsource, and not enough time to do everything myself.

    So I am not a hopeless case ( I have some skills), I admint to having a problem, I am determined, I am teachable and I am a prototypical. Teach me how to make a success of myself and you have stated your case.

    I’m Rare To Find, Mr. Rich. If You Carefully Read This Short And Precise Letter, We May Both Enrich My Lovely Island Of Puerto Rico In Countless Prolific Ways… Do You Dare To Read?

    Where else can you find a 24 years old proactive Puerto Rican that wants to bring a change to his lovely island- his country, through a new way for sharing and enjoying financial freedom through “Online Marketing”.

    With a country that has over 120+ –FAMILIES– a day rushing out of the country to both Miami, Florida and Orlando, Florida…I truly believe and have the confident that I can teach and spread the word through seminars and speaking events that having life and a excellent living are NOT through *Surviving*… it is through one of the most important aspects of life our *God* wanted us to enjoy, “True Freedom”.

    Freedom to enjoy the greatest things life can offer, both financially and in-spirituality.

    I’m already earning a full-time income from the Internet,however, getting to the $100,000/per month goal Mr. Rich, before my 30th birthday is the biggest exciting challenge I currently hold.

    And one more thing Mr. Rich, if we partially work as a team for a given timeframe, my habit of doing “Whatever It Takes” will get the job done.

    Respectfully Yours Truly,
    Joe Maldonado

  • http://child-minding.blogspot.com/ Suzanne Fernando

    My name is Suzanne Fernando and I was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer when I was pregnant – and almost died before I got a chance to hold my newborn baby girl.
    The nightmare began when doctors discovered a tumour the size of a tennis ball blocking little Aaron’s arrival.
    They immediately delivered Aaron by C-Sect – but I haemorrhaged.
    My bed sheets were soaked in blood and doctors could’nt get the bleeding to stop.
    As my life slipped away, docs warned my partner, to expect the worst as he stood helpless with our baby in his arms.
    He was left praying for a miracle – and fortunately for us, those prayers were answered.
    “My instincts told me all was not well. There is Cancer in my Dad’s side of the family and thats what kept nagging away in my mind”
    But what choices did I have?
    Ttreatment at that time would have damaged my baby. I didn’t want to face that, so I just retreated into myself and kept my fears secret.
    After months of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and a last chance 24 hour bombardment of radiation directly onto the tumour, I was eventually in remission.
    I had sailed through a trouble free pregnany with my first daughter, Jordan whom was diagnosed with Asbergers Syndrome when she was 6.
    But I have to admit, the minute I fell pregnant with Aaron, I felt very ill. I was sick all the time, I was in pain, I could’nt eat, and nothing could convince me
    that this was a normal pregnancy. When I was expecting Jordan, my partner and I backpacked to India just in time before settling down with children.
    I felt so well throughout the pregnancy, mind you I was always relatively fit and healthy having just spent almost 7 years as a Military Policewoman in Her
    Majesty’s Services.
    This time I thought, well no 2 pregnancies are the same.
    I remember my partner and I agreeing that there would be no more babies for us. I was dragging myself through the pregnancy. I couldn’t wait for it to be over.
    Every now and then I’d start bleeding and end up in hospital.
    But I think because of the position of the tumour, it simply didn’t show up.
    When I was 8 months pregnant, I was back at hospital for the umpteenth time after bleeding.
    I’ve got a rare blood group ‘O’ negative, so whenever I would take a bleed I’d have injections to stop the baby’s blood being poisoned.
    This time the doctor said she was concerned because I’d been in so often, that she’d like to examine me further.
    Nothing was showing on scans so she examined internally. The pain was unbearable. Then she told me there was a growth the size of a mans fist in my cervix.
    I had a biopsy and had to stay in hospital for the results. That night was awful. I lay awake wondering what was going to happen to us.
    Next day they told me. I had Cancer, and because of the tumour, I wouldn’t be able to deliver my baby normally, I was in shock.
    I was rushed into theatre for an emergency c-sect. The baby was perfect I was so releived. But when I was in the recovery ward, my partner noticed
    that my bed was suddnly saturated in blood.
    The room was suddenly filled with nurses, but by then I was slipping in and out of consciousness.
    I vaguely remember nurses wrapping me up in silver foil. They were wrapping themselves around me too, trying to raise my body temp. I was rushed back
    into theatre, and, after about 2 – 3 hours, the doctor came out and told my partner he was sorry but he couldn’t stop the bleeding.
    He asked my partner to sign a form permitting them to give me a hysterectomy.
    My partner said, “My partner is dying in there – just do what you have to do to save her”
    I spent a while in hospital while my partner looked after the girls.
    When I eventually did go home I was really worried about all the time I been apart from my girls, I hadn’t had a proper chance to bond with my newborn.
    A bed was made up for me in the livingroom and I began my chemo and radiation treatment the following week, just after New Year.
    Sadly despite an intensive course of 20 treatments the tumour was still there.
    I couldn’t believe it, after all that the cancer was still there.
    During this time my partner was giving me intensive Healing through Crystals, (Kes is a fully qualified Holistic Crystal healer) and this helped
    imensly, his Sister Al would visit me (she is a qualified Reflexologist) and heal my body through healing to my feet and a friend from Cancer Care
    came along weekly and gave me some hands on healing, all in which played a big part in my recovery, that I am positive of.
    I was then offered a 24 hour intensive course where they would bombard me with radiation non stop using long metal rods directly onto the tumour.
    It was ghastly. I couldn’t move for 24 hours but in the end, the tumour had shrunk.
    To be honest I think it was the nurses and doctors who kept me sane.
    When the tumour shrunk, I was still ill, but very very happy.
    But along with the tumour, other organs had also shrunk and I needed more surgeries to repair the damage.
    I had ignored the little voice in my head which told me I had Cancer. Like many people, I didn’t want to hear that because I knew that any treatment
    would seriously damage or kill my unborn baby.
    Today though, I have 2 beautiful girls and a future.
    My daughter Aaron celebrated her 5th birthday at Christmas which was an amazing experience for us all.
    I’ve since had to cope with more operations, skin grafts, scars, reconstructive surgery, however am now enjoying life hospital free, and with my family
    by my side……………………….well I made it and later married my partner Kester Fernando on the 10th anniversary of the day we met. In a romantic ceremony at the Blacksmiths
    cottage in gretna green, Scotland accompanied by our two girls and friends, we tied the knot – & were overcome with emotion. We were not the only ones.
    It was the happiest day of my life, after all we have been through. Everyone was crying at the ceremony, it was a very emotional service. It was a beautiful day and very romantic.
    We all went onto enjoy a wedding celebration in Annan in cottages overlooking the Solway Firth, with the memories of darker days well behind us. We have come through a lot since we met in Blairgowrie in jun 95, when I had just left the military police to start work as a private investigator and met my portugese beau Kes.
    We all enjoyed the day especially our girls Jordan and Aaron and will be a day we will never forget. I’ve since been in training for the “race for life” Cancer Research Charity race this year and wow what a day, very emotional with a hint of excitement and nerves all rolled into one. I was running on behalf of my late Grandad Scott and my
    dear friend “tam the Gun” who sadly died, (he fired the 1 oclock gun at Edinburgh Castle for over 20 years, we became very good friends when I served up in the castle for many years as a military policewoman, we kept in touch frequently over the years).
    There were 2 groups one group for runners and one for the walkers, I (not being of sound mind today) joined the runners, the course was pretty tough at times having to run over sand dunes and on sand, however I done my best (considering I’ve recently been diagnosed with tendonitis in my joints and
    will need an operation soon) finishing in at a cool 26 minutes,and the 100th person to cross the finish line, out of over 2 and a half thousand runners, was not bad going, my personal best yet (knowing full well I’d suffer for it though….) it was worth every last ache and pain.
    I can honestly say with my hand on my heart that I’ll definately be taking part in next years race, all being well.
    “What a buzz”!
    I’ve been adding up my sponsors and I beat my target of £500 by a mile, todate I’ve raised over £600.
    Now that I’ve got my health back I have successfully started my own business as a Registered Childminder working from home, as you can imagine I do need some guidance and help from you regarding my home and place of work, I really need to be shown how to combine them both together. Please do consider me.
    kind regards
    Suzanne Fernando
    I’ve enclosed some pics for you.
    kind regards
    Suzanne Fernando, Kilbirnie survivor!

    I know you want to sell your product but I can’t even get google to pick my website up. I would like to set another website up but all the products that I have seen come from the middle man and by the time I get them, you can actually buy them in the store cheaper than you can off my website. I need people to buy things from. I need google to pick me up. I haven’t a clue how to do adsense words. What is butterfly marketing. And most importantly…. can you guarantee me that this will work and if I have trouble do you have a support team that can help or can you mentor me. I am having the worse time getting off the ground and I really need some help. I can’t buy till I know it will work because I can’t afford myself at this point.
