I just wanted to let you know that Lee and Jim Pemberton of Pemberton's Cleaning and Restoration Supply have given me the honor to teach our newly improved "How To Become Wildly Successful" business building course @ their learning facility on November 3rd, 2006.

Also, on Thursday, November 2nd, 2006 - the evening before the course and also at Pemberton's Learning Center - I am teaching a class on using two unique software tools (software included FREE with course, by the way) that will help you to significantly grow your business - but only if you use it.

Not only will you receive the business software tools totally free of charge, I'm going to teach you how to use them immediately so you can start growing your business as soon as you get back to work.

If that wasn't enough, the Thursday evening course is ABSOLUTELY FREE if you pay the "whopping" $79 Wildly Successful Course tuition before THIS FRIDAY, October 27th, 2006.

What a great time at Connections a few weeks ago and if you missed it we sure missed you! We put on a mini seminar called "BRC's Success Together" and discussed some excellent topics such as: marketing and sales, prospecting, time management, leveraging, employee issues, creating more profit, and too many other topics to list.

Each person in attendance received a copy of Michael Gerber's E-Myth, on us as our way of thanking you for attending.

We definitely plan on making Success Together at least a yearly sidebar to Connections. We talked with several of the attendees who were extremely pleased with the session and format. (although the background music was a bit loud) As always, we are never pushy salespeople like (ahem) some of the other "gurus" who roamed the Convention Halls.

Who knows? Maybe Success Together will turn into a more frequent event? Based on feedback so far, it may very well turn into a frequent strategic session.

If you were an attendee, please drop us a line. We always appreciate hearing your comments and suggestions.

...so I'll just jump right in. I have joined forces with a national magazine called "Millionaire Blueprints".

I can see you scratching your head now. "Scott, how does that help me?" Dear reader, you're about to find out, but first let me tell you a bit about the magazine and why you should pay attention.

Millionaire Blueprints is a very unique success magazine endorsed by the King of Print Marketing himself - Dan Kennedy.

Dan Kennedy doesn't have a thing to do with the company or magazine itself; however, he did recently endorse it as his new favorite success magazine.

Here's what he says about Millionaire Blueprints in his "No BS Marketing Letter":

THE NEW, BEST MAGAZINE FOR ENTREPRENEURS
"Regrettably, the Success Magazine that I grew up with, that was the place for entrepreneurs when W. Clement Stone was publishing it, passed into incompetent hands and eventually disappeared altogether. Its name was bought, ironically, out of bankruptcy, and it is currently published as a give- away at seminars. Entrepreneur magazine has steadily changed for the worse, leaving real entrepreneurs behind, trying to “image up” and be a clone of Inc. I frankly find most of it unreadable and fear for its future. A new magazine has appeared that is filling the void admirably and is absolutely worth reading — no studying — every issue: “Millionaire Blueprints”. You can find it on bookstore, grocery store and Wal-Mart newsstands or get info and subscribe at www.millionaireblueprints.com. I’ve watched it for a year or so before recommending it here and can now wholeheartedly endorse it. That does NOT mean I agree with all its content or endorse its advertisers. But this does have some of the “feel” of the old Success and the old Entrepreneur that I miss: it does a solid job with in-depth how-to articles; and it deserves support and marketplace success. I’m rooting for it."

I strongly encourage you to get a copy of the magazine ASAP. This is a nuts 'n bolts type of magazine about how wealthy people got that way. The content is not theory-based at all. Every article is about how each person featured "made it" in life. Many are rags-to-riches stories and many are average guy-to-riches articles. After each article there is a full page (sometimes 2) of specific references the reader can turn to for more research and information.

MB is a national print magazine. It's only 2 years old, but it's already won awards for being one of the most successful new magazine releases in the past 30 years. Its growth rate is stunning. In Feb '05, it was carried in a test of 5 cities. Early in '06 it was carried in 95% (and growing) of all bookstores and box stores like Walmart and Target. In 2007 the magazine is doing what only one other magazine has done before.

In 2007, Millionaire Blueprints is hitting major markets at the local level. Only one magazine has tried this before - a "little" magazine called TV Guide.

So what's my involvement and how does it help you?

My involvement in MB is that my wife, Sunny, and I have purchased 30% shares in the Detroit and Chicago city markets. Sunny and I are devoting a lot of time and effort into making this investment succeed. So what's in it for you?

I'm a student - and will always be a student of - success. I hope you are too because once you think you "know it all", chances are great that you'll rule out some of the best, new marketing techniques available. What my involvement brings to you is the chance to see unique ways in which a big company (think Yellow Trucks, but more innovative and in a different industry) successfully bring their message to the local level. That's exactly what MB is doing, and that's exactly what Sunny and I are accomplishing.

In future issues I'll share with you some excellent marketing strategies that we're using that you can use in your own business. Sunny and I are charter members of the concept. We were the first to jump at the opportunity. Since we jumped in, a mere 2 months ago, there are now over 30 additional city owners - and growing.

At this point I can't divulge our marketing plan because it's on the verge of launch and the magazine industry is exactly like every other industry - guarded in what works and what doesn't. As it unfolds I'll be sure to document many exciting and unique strategies we're using to fill the pages.

As for my cleaning/restoration business, we're still booming - and expect to keep on growing. We're enabling several new marketing campaigns based on new strategies that we've picked up with our new affiliation with MB. Again, I ask you to be patient and stay tuned.

A couple new updates in the blog - mainly about Greenglides. By the way, I have agreed to help them with their battle with Harris Research. We've created a blog to get you up to speed, if you haven't heard anything about it yet. A couple of websites are in the works now.
