The Money Gym has just launched The Boardroom, an easy, quick, flexible way for your business to access a crack business team comprising 18 of your very own non-executive directors, plus Judith Morgan and Nicola Cairncross.  As part of the launch of The Boardroom, The Money Gym is offering a 33% discount on the 1st year membership (offer closes midnight 31st October) and Nicola & Judith are hosting a daily BlogTalkRadio show, where they help each business caller work out how to create an extra £10k in just 90 days from their existing business.

Today’s caller on The Money Gym “£10k In 90 Days” Challenge on our BlogTalkRadio show was our Really Useful Internet Day’s lucky winner of a Boardroom place for 2009/2010, Suzanne Barnett.

Suzanne is an experienced trainer and owner of a training company, previously selling all kinds of software and computer training into the corporate market, which, in spite of an excellent reputation, for obvious reasons has found the going pretty tough recently.

On one of her first Money Gym weekends, Judith and I were able to encourage Suzanne to think about moving away from the corporate market and aiming her company services at small business owners who are faster at making their minds up, in charge of their own budgets and generally in some sort of pain around learning to use computers more efficiently to make more money.

Suzanne has subsequently teamed up with fellow Money Gym member, Eileen Bowley (who came joint second in our “Gold For Christmas” competion you may remember) to deliver high quality, on demand, virtual computer & software training.

At the recent “Really Useful Internet Day” the girls entered the Gary Vaynerchuk challenge, and after some rigorous coaching by Nicola on their brand, ended up buying on the spot the domain name http://www.KeepItSimpleSoftwareTraining.com (or KISST for short).

Recession Proof Your Business With Unlimited HOT Leads

What makes for a recession proof business? Unlimited qualified sales leads or prospects and an “optimum selling system” for turning those qualified leads into business.

I’ll cover the “optimum sellling system in another blog post but today I want you think about just one question…if your business had unlimited qualified “hot” leads that you could turn into business, would that help your profits? How much would you pay for those qualified leads? £1, £10, £100 per lead?

Buying leads is big business, and not just for the banks, credit card or property investment companies.

And if YOU want unlimited qualified leads, and you would pay for them, do you think there are other, related businesses (even competitors!) that would pay you for qualified leads that they too, could turn into business?

I went to an internet marketing seminar at the weekend with Mark & Gary Vurnum, which was excellent, and taught me so much new stuff….particularly about how to dominate the search engines for your key phrases for free!!

However, I was reminded that Mark makes most of his fortune by generating and selling hot qualified leads. He also has an excellent product called Lead Generation Videos which I thought would be very useful for those of you who have a business.

So … what are ‘Lead Generation Videos’ and what makes them different ?

This method of generating an income is not NEW but is REVOLUTIONARY!

Most internet marketers are desperately seeking the ‘holy grail’ of internet marketing…What is it? A Consistent, Proven Income!

This video series takes you by the hand and shows you how to build a ‘Recession Proof’ business. Simple, yet powerful, you can develop ‘leads’ online and make a consistent profit. Not only can you make money by selling the leads offline to local businesses but you can also make money using over five separate ‘automated income plans’ It’s basically like having your own salesforce developing leads for your business 24/7.

You see, Mark Vurnum, the product owner, is also an experienced online marketer as well as an advanced lead generator. So he knows how to deliver quality products along with how to use the products to your advantage.

Not many product owners even attempt to over-deliver as much as Mark does!

Here’s just a shortlist of the powerful information that you will discover in this unique video series:

- Why Selling Ebooks Is a Flawed Business (in spite of what the “Gurus” tell you…)
- Why _______________ Is The New Gold on the Internet (and how you can find it – and cash in big-time, before everyone else catches on…)

Relocation, Relocation, Relocation…

Well, it’s back to school week and it’s been turbulent at Money Gym Towers, as Phoebe heads off to a so-called “better” school, Steyning Grammar.

She was happily not doing very well at her previous school, surrounded by her mates and in particular her best mate K, with her grades going down every quarter despite incentives and penalties.  She also managed to make very good friends with one of the “worst five boys in the school, heading for exclusion” according to her form tutor.  Ho hum. He looked after her, though, in the corridors.

Her father decided enough was enough and diligently hounded the Education Authority to get her into Steyning, though, and I sat by thinking “he’ll never get her in, the waiting list is too long and her record not exactly exemplary” but lo and behold, he did.  The new school is 7 miles and 30 minutes away across country, with two bus changes and a journey of an hour, while the old one was local, one bus ride and 10 minutes in the car.

So tears and tantrums ensued for a few days, while he talked her into trying it, and unfortunately the Open Day did not go well, with a bit of an incident with one of the naughtiest girls in the school putting her off, bigtime.  But her dad does not give up easily, and took her for another visit where the teacher managed to win her around to try it out.

Then a particularly nasty bullying incident, in the last two weeks of term, made her think that, perhaps it would be good to move schools after all.  Her old school handled it well I thought but it wasn’t great timing.  The summer holiday passed, and the excitement of going to France, then buying new school clothes and a handbag particularly, distracted her nicely.

She went in on her first day, as she described it “with a smile and determined to make the best of it” and came out silent, with a face like thunder.  Her friend (vaguely known via her cousin), who we were also giving a lift to, was quiet and unhappy too, having moved from another school too, and who has been put in a class with NOBODY she knew, but Phoebe….well the silence was terrifying.

Hours of tears and pleading followed, as she visited her father, then cried on me, and locked herself away in her bedroom (or mine) to endlessly text her woes to her circle of mates.

This morning she was trying to refuse to go, only the unspoken worry about being grounded (tonight is the monthly under-18 club night in Brighton)

So, how do I feel about all this?  I have to support her father, and we all agree she stands “a better chance in later life” if she goes to Steyning Grammar as it has an excellent reputation.

However, as someone who doesn’t believe in traditional education and even less in a job, or a single path career, I’m ambivalent.

The only things I learned, of use, at school were how to read, and how to type.  And I was downright cold, bored and miserable most of the time.

I was happy for her to go where she was happy-ish, nice and nearby, and to get as many O-levels as she could, then to leave school, take a boring series of jobs just to make her realise how grim it is, then for her to come to me and ask how to start the serious business of making money, probably either online, with her own business or via property.  She’s bright but not academic, artistic and entrepreneurial.

But now we are plunged into a warzone, and I’m not convinced it’s all worth it.

RELOCATION……….

My sister has had her flat in Worthing on the market for sale or rent and had it with a preferred local smaller agent first with absolutely no action whatsoever.  She isn’t so bothered about selling it as the valuations came in at something ridiculous, obviously priced to get the quickest sale (guaranteeing the agent’s commission) instead of what she knows the flat is worth in a normal market.

No action from the first agent on the rentals front either, apart from one woman on housing benefits – not ideal.  They were telling her all the usual “market’s dead”, “nobody’s moving” kind of stories.

Fed up, she called in the big boys, the biggest, most aggressive agent in town, the shark swallowing up the minnows as they go to the wall, and guess what?  Several viewings in the first few days with definite interest already.

Why is this agent thriving while all around him are losing their businesses?
Marketing, marketing, marketing!  There is no getting away from Michael Jones & Co, and love them or hate them, you bloomin’ well know they are there.

They even use email to send you property details and reply promptly to enquiries by email too!

RELOCATION……….

Brett’s here!  The McFall has landed in London from Australia and we are revving up the marketing for our “Money Gym Presents…Brett McFall” workshop on the 20th / 21st September.

Who should come?  Well, I think all of you!!  If only to donate £25 to Great Ormond St Hospital……£25 for two days?  c’mon.  But seriously for a moment…

Every time I go out to talk about Wealth Creation, especially to business people and property investors, the one burning topic that comes up again and again is the internet.  More specifically, how to harness the massive power of the internet and tap into the BILLION or so people online, on broadband RIGHT NOW.

Business Owners & Property Investors always want to know :-

1.  How to create passive income online to fund more property purchases

2.  How to create extra profit for your bottom line, without adding any overhead and with minimal investment

3.  How to find great tenants or earn money online to make up your rental shortfalls

4.  How to generate leads for your business, rentals or BMV deals, without having to pay £££ for them

5.  How to integrate your business, an online presence and your speaking activities

The rest of you just want to know :-

1.  How to replace their work income so that they can leave their day job

2.  How to use the internet to fill up rentals that holiday home that you thought would pay for itself

3.  How to look after elderly relatives or care for siblings who are struggling financially

4.  How to help your kids to get out of student debt, and create a future for themselves beyond seeking a low paid job (degree or not!)

BUT………..most of all, you say to me …..

“But Nicola, it’s all right for you, you’ve been doing this for YEARS, how do I GET STARTED, I don’t know what to do FIRST !!”

So, because I’m not that great at keeping my internet marketing workshops simple, tending to turn all nerdy and geeky, on the topic, I turned to someone who I have known for years, who has a brilliant track record at teaching BEGINNERS to get started online.

Brett McFall.

I begged him to help me, to help you….I pestered and I plagued him long distance to Australia…and it worked.

http://www.brettmcfalllive.com

He’s in London right now for a couple of more advanced events, which are pretty much sold out anyway AND he’s offered to stay over longer, to do a special TWO DAY event for The Money Gym.

He’s here to TEACH YOU how to get started online.  To give you his system.

Have fun, we always are!
