I speak to a variety of people every day who are for the first time making what I call the transition from what I call “from E to E,” which means moving from “employee to entrepreneur. “This transition is largely mental and emotional, which is the reason why two people can be presented with the same opportunity and tools yet experience very different results. I have been able to help a number of people recognize a few simple principles and offer strategies to help them overcome limiting beliefs, mis-conceptions, and successfully make the transition into entrepreneurship.

The economy has created an environment where many honest hard working people have found themselves displaced due to layoffs, business closures, and other causes beyond their control. As a result there are literally tens of thousands of people entering into the Internet Marketing and Network Marketing Professions. I have the privilege of helping many of these individuals build their businesses and dramatically shorten their learning curve.

This week I conducted a number of podcast sessions on the topic of creating a properly structured business funnel and funded proposal. If you would like to hear recordings of these sessions visit http://www.JamesHolmesRadio.com

The follow up conversations to this series have been interesting and I have decided to extend an opportunity for a greater number of people to engage in the conversation and I have assembled a package of free resources that I will provide to every person with whom I conduct a private coaching session. I am interested in speaking with Internet Marketers and Network Marketers who have had limited or no success in their business, and those who are new to the profession.

I am particularly interested in speaking with displaced executives or those interested in transitioning from being employees in to part-time or full-time entrepreneurship. I believe that I can help you successfully transition into entrepreneurship.

A friend and fellow networking professional named Anne Feinstein shared this short 2:35 video with me and said she starts her day watching it, I can see why. The messages are very simple yet powerful and I wanted to pay her gift to me forward to you. My hope is that you will be inspired to live everyday on purpose and recognize that you can decide to start anew.

My day started off in a powerful way today. I hosted session one in a four session series of podcast on developing your business funnel. The series is designed to help you create an outcome based business blueprint (your business funnel), that attracts continuous qualified prospects, creates reoccurring streams of income and allows you to build a thriving business.

At the conclusions of this series of four consecutive podcast you will have the perfect business model to help you create a successful online business, time freedom, and true wealth.

If you speak with any successful internet marketer you will discover that they use a business and marketing funnel often including a “self-funded” proposal. This model when executed effectively will provide you with a growing list of opt in prospects, consistent list of new buyers, and predictable revenues.

Here is a quick reference for each session:

Session One June 23rd: “Business By Design Funnel Architecture”

Session Two June 24th: “Dynamic Marketing Pillars”

Session Three June 25th: “Essential Tools and Resources”

Session Four June 26th: “Reoccurring Revenue Streams”

I just finished watching a powerful 51 minute video presentation by Russell Brunson on the topic  “Micro-Continuity.” If you are like me you likely are a member of more than one continuity program, which is basically a monthly subscription to access to a members only website where you access content pertaining to a niche or specific aspect of marketing, product creation, etc.

The marketplace is very competitive and it becomes a challenge for many to afford more than a few of these programs, which on average range anywhere from $17 to $97 per month and present a tremendous value for what you receive. So what should you do if you are introducing a new program and the budgets of your potential members are already being tapped? The answer should be “Micro-Continuity.”

Russell Brunson has added a little twist to  the basic monthly continuity model by advocating for a fixed period for the program. As a result your customer can budget for program that last 1-3 months and ends instead of an open ended monthly commitment. This allows you to provide content for a fixed period of time and then close the program or cycle back through the content with a new set of customers. The Micro-Continuity program is this and so much more.

The genius of Russell’s program is that reveals a powerful new system for getting a mini-membership site up and running in less then 24 hours. There will be a tremendous amount of actionable content provided in the pre-release phase of the product release and I encourage you to sign up and watch the videos – there will be two.

The actual “Micro-Continuity” course will be delivered through 6 hours of high value content pre-loaded on an MP3 Player that Russell Brunson is giving away for free. If you enter your name and email address below I will forward you to a special page where you can watch the first video and reserve your MP3 Player if you decide that this training provides value for you.

You’ll have to watch the video to understand why (and how) Micro-Continuity works so fast…

I will be conducting a series of free private training sessions for those who decide they would like to set up a Miro-Continuity program.
