Protégé Day Provides Private Product Creation Education


If you want to learn how to create products for the Internet and just don’t know where to begin, here’s your answer.


On Thursday, April 10, the day before our family real estate conference on April 11-13 in Huntsville, Alabama, I’ve invited some of our conference experts to work with my tech team to show you exactly how to do it.


Using the Internet is not hard but there are lessons to learn before you jump in and waste your money. I want to save you the trouble by showing you how to do it in real time with real experts.

Plus, the information you will get from the speakers that day will be life-changing.


But wait! There’s more!


I just had to say that! ;)


You will also get the right to sell the product we create and KEEP ALL THE MONEY!


You don’t have to share it with anyone!


I’ll explain all the details on the phone this Tuesday.


If you are ready for more than just a conference, if you and your family are looking for a community of entrepreneurs who are all headed in the same direction – straight toward financial freedom – then listen to my call this Tuesday night, February 26 at 9 PM Eastern Time.


I’ll also explain the agenda for our Protégé Day and answer all your questions.


The number to call is 218-339-7800


The passcode is 365981#


You can learn more here: http://www.realestatedays.com/


Don’t forget to bring the kids! THIS is real education!


The deadline for the Early Bird registration is midnight, Sunday, March 2.


I’ll talk to you Tuesday!

Learn to the Art of the Short Sale


Last week, we were supposed to interview Donna Bauer about buying and selling mortgage notes but you know how life goes. Things don’t always work out as planned.


So instead, we had Graham Treakle tell his story of how, as a banker, he became involved with buying properties with Short Sales.

The Value of Apprenticeship


This past Thursday, we completed our Writing for the Web class and are already getting posts thanking us for the cool online education.

Now the folks who watched the Webinars and did their homework have started apprenticing with some web site owners to get some practical hands-on training.

The VA's who took our Virtual Assistant class at the end of last year are now in their second phase of apprenticeship.

They all seem to be loving it!

Plus, they are learning so much from those they are serving.

People often ask me why I expect our students to be involved in an apprenticeship. They question its value and wonder if we are just trying to get some free work out of the newly-trained students.

That’s because this country has forgotten the concept of true education that results from apprenticing with a master or someone who is more knowledgeable about a topic.

In early America, that’s how most of the craftsmen were trained.

That’s the principle behind medical and legal internships.

Mentors can teach a wide variety of topics so don’t limit your scope when looking for great education.

In education, it’s very valuable to have access to someone who knows more about the subject than you do.

In fact, having a mentor cuts your learning curve by years because they can steer you away from the mistakes they’ve made.

So whenever you get the opportunity to participate in an apprenticeship, realize that the good you will get out of it way outweighs the amount of work you have to do for someone that is seemingly “free.”

The experience you get is one thing; but the contacts and association you make with the mentor is often way more valuable than the skill you learn.

Don’t forget, in business, it’s not what you know that counts, it’s who knows you!



So many books, so little time...

Attend a Live Event with Your Teens

People ask me all the time about how we homeschool. They want to know the “secret of success” that not only launched Drew into his career but that creates that bond between a parent and a teen.

Well, here it is in a nutshell:
Do cool stuff with them.

So many moms (with perfectionist mindsets) try to do everything FOR their kids. They give them all the best toys and clothes, sign them up for all the best classes, and expect them to do all their academic lessons perfectly.

I have found that kids often prefer to stay home more and work on lots of messy projects with just mom or dad.

At least that’s what my kids told me when we moved to the country and I finally started listening to them.

Here’s an example.

Drew has just finished building his house about 30 minutes down the road. He recruited three of his brothers, one sister and his dad to help. He also hired contractors for jobs he doesn’t like or doesn't know how to do.

Now he’s ready to start speaking at real estate conferences to teach how he sells houses on eBay. (He’s sold about 50 and is the only teacher I know who is doing what he does.)

So even though he hasn’t been to a conference in a long time, he asked me to go with him to one today.

When your 26-year-old asks you to go somewhere with him, that’s a good thing. So even though I’m already very busy, I’m going.

I consider one-on-one time away from home with a teen or young adult, the same as seeking the privacy of your bedroom to nurse your newborn.

Both have special needs and both will grow out of the stage they’re in way too soon so I cherish that stage while they are there. And I try to meet their needs as quickly and as efficiently as I can.

The problem with attending a professional event is finding one that is family-friendly where teens are welcomed. That’s why my team and I have created the events we host.

The only real estate event we may ever host is coming up this April 11-13, 2008.
If you would like to go on what has been called “the ultimate field trip” with one or two of your teens and learn how to invest in real estate at the same time, consider joining us at our Real Estate Conference in Huntsville, Alabama.

This is real education. They don’t teach this stuff in school but you can write it in your journal.
Just call it Business: Real Estate Investing. It’s worth about ½ to 1 credit.

It could also make you and your teens financially free.

At least you’ll learn how to buy and sell a house and that alone could save you or even make you tens of thousands of dollars.

But here’s the main reason.

The experience you have with whoever you take on that trip will strengthen your relationship. Talk about what you like. Talk about what you don’t like. Talk about the future.
At least talk!

Years from now, you will both look back at that weekend where memories were set in stone and you’ll thank God that you invested the time and effort to work it in to your very busy life.

Besides all that, it could just change your life.

Make sure you say hey to Drew when you get there!


So many books, so little time...

We’re Moving Our Mailing List


You may have gotten a confirmation note from us this week saying you’ll never hear from us again if you don’t click that link.


If you don’t click the link, you really will never hear from us again, so please click it.


Because of the world of spam, legitimate emailers who have large lists of subscribers have an incredibly hard time getting their emails delivered these days.


We first noticed the problem last summer. I was sick in bed for several months and just didn’t stay on top of things to realize our emails weren’t getting through.


So in the fall last year, we decided to move our mailing list from AutoResponse Plus to Aweber. (You should too.)


We also had a list in 1 Shopping Cart but we try not to collect email addresses there because they bill based on the number of subscribers you have. The more you have, the higher your monthly bill. Not good.


Aweber has the strongest ability to deliver mass emails because they require double opt-in and do not offer a trial version that encourages spammers to “hit a list and run.”


So we started moving the list and learned we can only invite 2,000 subscribers per day to opt-in.


Oh brother.


So the moral to this story is, if you are planning to have an Internet-based business, start off with the right email management program in the beginning.


That way you don’t have to change horses in mid-stream.


Aweber has proven over time to be the one to use.



So many books, so little time...

Start Your Own Sponsorship Business

Would you like to get paid (very well) to find sponsors for other businesses or charities?

Did you know that companies spend over $13.39 billion every year sponsoring businesses, events, and promotions?

Linda Hollander is a dear friend of mine who trains people to tap into the awesome power of corporate sponsors. With 20 years of business experience, she knows what she is doing.

Her corporate sponsors are companies like Citibank, Fed Ex, Health Net, American Airlines, Bank of America, Staples, Wal-Mart/Sam's Club, Omega World Travel and IBM.

I have been working with her to help me find sponsors for our ongoing projects. So she has recommended that I help some folks get trained.

She will be teaching a 4 week tele-class about Attracting Corporate Sponsorships in February and I want to hire an independent contractor who takes her class.

I need a sponsorship expert and I can’t find one.

This is not a job for the timid. You have to be able to sell and close.

If you are self motivated and are looking for a very lucrative job that you can do from home that offers serious commissions, don’t miss my call with Linda this week.

Linda will be my guest on the phone this Tuesday, February 5 at 9 PM Eastern Time.

It’s a Boy!

You know how antsy an overdue mother-to-be can feel. Well, it’s just as bad for an overdue grandmother-to-be!

My oldest son Drew and his wife Carol waited patiently for the arrival of their first child and he took his time getting here as most babies do!

(I didn’t wait so patiently!)

Elijah Wayne Perry was born last Monday, January 28 at 10 AM. He weighed 7 lbs. 6 oz.

Carol had a marvelous water birth with no complications and has been cared for by many, many “moms!”

If you think kids are great, wait till you get grandkids. They are amazing!

So many books, so little time...
