You’re the reason we’re here. We can’t help it, my Team and I have so much respect and affinity for those of you following your Entrepreneurial vision, whether as a solo-preneur with a small product or service line, or an empire-builder creating the next multi-billion-dollar global brand. We know what you’re up against. We’ve been there, many times, and I have no doubt I’ll be there many more times. I’m in love with creating stuff!
I believe Entrepreneurism is one of the greatest soul-shaping, character-crunching journey a person can take. A perfect mirror of one’s gifts, capabilities, character flaws and fears. A magnifying mirror. And, for those of us who are, being Entrepreneurial really isn’t a choice, it’s a necessity, a drive. If it’s in your make-up, you can run but you can’t hide. It’ll get you.
Oh, yeah. It can also be a heartache. It’s mostly wonderful and sometimes terrifying. It’ll serve you up a magnificent banquet, and then sometimes it’ll turn around and eat your lunch.
My own Entrepreneurial path began when I was a kid, but I didn’t understand it at all until about 10 years ago. I grew up in the Midwest and went to school to be a Film Director (Ohio State, UCLA, The American Film Institute), and then spent many years in Hollywood where I was an Agent at Creative Artists Agency, and later an Executive in charge of Motion Picture Development at Aaron Spelling Productions.
Looking for the security I thought I wanted, I steered away from Hollywood and into the Corporate world of finance to became a Vice President of Business Development for Bank of America.
After moving to Austin, Texas a few years ago, I was asked to head up a new Arts organization and create a multi-media creative incubator for Theater Artists and Game Developers – The ArtSpark Festival. Since I left to start my own Online Video Marketing business, the ArtSpark Festival has continued going strong.
And I’ve been developing programs and trainings for Online Entrepreneurs and Virtual Assistants to learn how to do their own Video Marketing any time they want – even creating their own online TV Shows. For me, it’s come full-circle and I’m having a blast working with visionary Entrepreneurs of all kinds.
I’ve noticed that having a money-making, home-based business is the vision of countless numbers of people these days, and knowing how to make your own Videos is huge. With job losses climbing and employment confidence going away, you’re that unique breed of person whose automatic response is to kick into gear and take matters into your own hands.
You’re not into just sitting there, relying on promises from big institutions, waiting for things to go back to the way they were. You don’t accept limitations about what you can do, regardless of what direction the stock market is headed or what the government has up its sleeve. You know you have something valuable to offer, and it’s time to get it out to those who want and need it.
We all need some basic infrastructure and tools to do business online. I’m sharing ways you can use Video to be successful – because effectively using Video in your marketing gives you a huge edge.
I’ll leave you with this, and it’s GOOD NEWS: If you’re starting or building an online business right now, the news is not only good, it’s great. It’s time to kick it into high gear, because with so many other businesses stuck in frozen mode, when they finally wake up you’ll already be in forward motion.
Now is a fantastic time to be in your shoes!
I’ll see you here again soon – and in the meantime, if you haven’t already, you can get started with the Special Report on Video I put together. You’ll have immediate access to it by signing up above – and it’s Free.
Until next time,
