Wealth Coach Diaries: Nicola’s Week

This week I co-hosted a “Rent To Own / House For £1″ evening at the Burlington Hotel in Worthing, with David Lee and his lovely wife, on one of the hottest days of the year so far. We had a bumper turnout with over 30 property investors and aspiring RentToOwn’ers there and it was great to meet new friends and old – Hi Mandy, David and Tyrone!
Well the big day is finally here – my sister Heather Cairncross’ second “Gira Con Gershwin” concert at the Ropetackle Arts Centre in Shoreham. She previously performed it at the Arundel Festival last year and it was so well recieved she was persuaded to put it on again. Tickets were slow to move at first, but once we set up the Heather Cairncross fanclub on Facebook, and I enouraged her to email her Arundel list a couple more times, we started to get some ticket sale action.
Kept telling her, you gotta touch people about 7 times with your sales message in different ways….and I hope she will let me do a Jeff Walker “product launch formula” with her next time. Singing postcards by email, now there’s a thought….
I was hoping to beam it live from my laptop via http://www.Justin.tv/wealthcoach but I’m not sure the main concert hall has wireless broadband – it certainly does not get a mobile phone signal *sigh*.
Talking of product launches, Tim Brocklehurst is warming up to release the DVD’s of his Freedom Class weekend, which we all went on recently. YOu can see Steve being uncharacteristially outgoing here while you watch these 8 excellent short videos about viral marketing and the power we are all tapping into now http://viralurl.com/moneygym/actionfreedom
Tomorrow, as it’s a kid free weekend, I’m off to lunch with one of my poker buddies, Paul Stanford, small business specialist. Check out his fab new blog Steve made him… some great articles there already. http://www.paulstanford.co.uk/blog/ – dont’cha just love that template which fitted his existing branding so well.
Heather came to view the poker league this week and met some of my poker buddies, including Paul. She might come and play soon but Monday is jazz night at the Hare & Hounds in Worthing and it takes a lot to tear her away from live jazz.
I’ve just been called away from writing this, to film Steve’s golf swing with my little Flip Video camera….one of the more esoteric uses for it….LOL. He’s got a bit of a loop going on and his mum will be consistently beating him until he fixes it apparently. I would upload it to Viddler.com for your enjoyment and/or tips, but I fear he would, then, be justified in leaving!
Now, are you having fun in the sun? We are!

Jazz On A Sunday In Shoreham

Check this out…The legendary bass player Herbie Flowers teams up with young turk, genius jazz pianist Mark Edwards, for Herbie’s Jazz Breakfast at The Ropetackle Centre, Shoreham, West Sussex. Here they are joined by Marianne Hillier-Brook on percussion.
Herbie is actually playing the bass that he used for the opening notes of “Walk On The Wild Side” by Lou Reed, recorded at Trident Studios in London. In the audience was Ken Scott, visiting from the USA, who was the sound engineer at Trident, who Herbie had invited to hear Mark Edwards play. Awesome.
Herbie’s Jazz Breakfast is the first Sunday of every month 11am – 1pm (excluding August 2008). £7 including free coffee & croissant. Book here at The Ropetackle Centre website >>>
