Recession Success

Thumbs up to those that contributed to “Recession Success Stories, 5 Lessons From Recent Career Switchers”.  This is what I’ve been lecturing about for years, folks!  Recession or not, the way to achieve financial and personal freedom is to think outside the box and do whatever it takes to reach, no exceed, your goals.

Here are the suggestions of five entrepreneurs that have beaten the recession by focusing on their goals, not on the challenges that surround them.  My comments follow each:

Reinvent Yourself, suggested by Mike Smithwick of San Jose, CA, Author and designer of Distant Suns software.
Well, there you go.  If it’s not working, fix it!  Sometimes we get stuck in the “same old, same old” and become close-minded to opportunities that are right in front of us.  Okay, so you’ve been an employed as an engineer for 25 years and suddenly find yourself without a job.  That doesn’t mean you have to remain an unemployed engineer or wait for another engineering job to come your way.  Think of what you love to do, what you’re great at, where you want to be in life and apply those thoughts to create a new you.  When you take away your label, the opportunities you will discover will amaze you.

Be Excellent, suggested by Nick Schafer, Bellevue, WA, Principal, Schafer Construction
Whatever it is you do, don’t just be good at it, be great at it - the best you can be.  Do whatever it takes to improve your level of service – further your education, invest in your community, improve upon your skills – and you will be remembered and referred.  Your business will grow as you create value simply by being excellent.

Embrace Change, suggested by Deborah Jack, Fort Lee, NJ, Fetch! Pet Care franchise owner
The only thing that is constant is change.  Many fear change, as it creates an unknown.  The recession has created more change than ever imagined, so we must adapt.  Rather than focusing on the negative impact the economic downturn has created, try seeing how you can prosper despite its impact.

Partner With Other Businesses, suggested by Taylor Cimala, Chicago, IL, Founder, Digital Third Coast
Joint ventures are popping up all over the place.  It’s not like this is a new idea, it’s just that finding business is tougher than usual and you have to work three times as hard to get the same result.  Teaming up with another like-minded business may help in sharing costs, sharing or gaining access to customer resources, accelerating revenue growth, building a stronger presence, sharing people resources and/or diversifying your business.

Serve Customers from the Heart, suggested by Peggi Speers, Pebble Beach, CA, Vice president, Patients Pride

This should be a given.  Treat customers the way you want to be treated.  Be respectful, compassionate and understanding – there’s way too little of that in this world.  Remember, a smile, a “thank you”, “have a great day” and “good job” go a long, long way.

I know it’s been a tough time for everyone at varying levels.  These five individuals found a way to make it through their troubles, and I know of many more that have done the same.  I talk to literally hundreds of people a week who are in troubled if not dire situations and are tired of being a victim of the recession.  They’ve taken action to achieve financial and personal freedom, and you can do the same.

This is a virtual seminar, not a hotel seminar.  A hotel seminar costs thousands of dollars to attend (after travel, hotel, and attendee fee). The Fall Power Series costs much less because you listen over the phone or web, from the comfort of your own home (or hot tub!) In fact, Real Estate Profit Training’s Fall Power Series is only $97 to attend — but if you act now, you won’t even pay that price.  You see, I can get you complimentary access if you click this link now.

Never before have esteemed faculty members like this been assembled for a ‘virtual’ event like Real Estate Profit Training’s Fall Power Series.

Think you can learn from these people? You betcha!  Think I can learn from these people? Absolutely! Bottom line: I’ll be attending, and you should too.   Oh — and not only will you get the $97 admission price waived, you can also send this to your friends and colleagues, too (Just don’t tell Ken I told you to do it!)…

This 100% off discount is only available during the pre-launch countdown, which ends on October 14th (or before!)

See you at the Fall Power Series!
