Is SBI! Necessary In Order To SUCCEED?

SBI! is NOT absolutely essential to build your own long- lasting, growing e-business, but it does give you THE greatest chance of success, by far. Still, it may not be for you. Consider the following…

  1. If your goal is just to have a blog, or if it’s just to socialize, you don’t need SBI!. You have a nice hobby.
  2. If you prefer to play games and “fool” Google with the latest Search Engine tricks (like creating fake link networks), SBI!’s not for you, but understand that no engine tricks have ever LASTED. None. They all get beaten, followed by much gnashing of teeth and wailing by those who thought they were going to fool the engines forever.
  3. If you’re already very successful, congratulations! You have figured it all out. You’re doing it all right, with a solid process, all the right tools, etc.
    You don’t need SBI!. Recognize, though, that you are the 1 in a 1000 exception. And if you’re blogging, you’re the 1 in 2,000 exception…

    Blog or build?

    Most people really would do much better with SBI!.

  4. If you’re suspicious that SBI! must be “too good to be true,” that natural feeling comes from all the “Get Rich Quick” and fraudulent game-playing schemers out there. But ask yourself if you have ever seen as much proof of success, and if the SBI! forums could be such THE most positive, help-and-be-helped force in e-business.
  5. If you’re very tech-oriented, you may feel that SBI! is a toy for newbies (kind of like techs used to think about the Macintosh computer because it was easy to use). If you’re not open to changing the way you work in order to succeed (and I have no doubt you WOULD succeed if you were willing to adjust your habits), then SBI! is not right for you.
  6. If, despite the process/all-the-tools/constant-updating, you believe that $299 is too expensive and you’d prefer to try cheap hosting and figure-it-all-out-on-your-own (info and tools and updating), then go for it. You will end up spending more on tools here and there, on countless pitches you’ll face along the way. And in the end, the vast majority who take this route fail…People need the process and tools and constant updating, all simplified into a do-able step-by-step. It takes some longer to discover that. And that’s fine. When you do realize it, you’ll be ready for the 7th and final “if”…
  7. If you fit into one or more of the above scenarios and have yet to build a an e-business that will spin off increasing income on a long-term basis, simply give SBI! a try.

Yup. Don’t decide “for sure” now. Just try it…

The Guarantee turns it into a risk-free trial. You may indeed find out that SBI! is not for you. Just refund. See the guarantee towards the bottom of the Order Page…

Order Site Build It!

They absolutely honor that guarantee. More than that, if you feel SBI! is NOT for you, they WANT to refund you. Why?

It’s part of how they build that amazingly positive, productive and successful community of people who make their forums what it is today. So if you’re not right for it, then it’s not right for you. Part ways happy.

Somehow, though, I think you’re going to love it, like the vast majority of SBIers do. Don’t put it off. Just do it.

Keep on dancing!

How does an entrepreneur get others to follow an idea?

Well - he starts a “movement”…

In this video the entrepreneur is at first one and lonely dancing a wild dance. Soon another joins in. When the third person comes along the result is an EXPLOSION - everybody rushes in to take part.

These three first guys play the key roles. The first one by being patient and persisting even though it can be awkward. The second by showing support. The third one is obviously in the role of a qualifier - getting others to see the dance as a group behavior that would be fund to take part in.

The video also shows how ideas turn viral and how viruses become infectious (not the biological - but the social).

Lesson: Keep on dancing!

Creative School?

Is the school a creative place?

Ideas about creativity from top lecturer Sir Ken Robinson.

Ken says: “Creativity is as important as literacy”

Schools have traditionally focused on not being wrong and therefor not making mistakes and the result is that education kills creativity.

Children are naturally creative and the schools are beating that out of them. Focusing on the upper part of the body, then the head and slightly to the left side of the brain.

Yohanna - Iceland 2nd Place in Eurovision!

Coming from Iceland, its not often you get a chance to be a proud. Yesterday was a pleasant exception when Yohanna got the well deserved second place in the European Song Contest.

Yohanna (Jóhanna in Icelandic) sings from her heart and performs like she was born on stage. No fear.

Enjoy!

There has been talk about the lyrics being a description of the crisis in Iceland, so I included the text. Phrases like “Falling out of a perfect dream” and “Did I throw it away?” are certainly suspect.

You can be the judge:

Is it true?

You say you really know me
You’re not afraid to show me
What is in your eyes
So tell me ’bout the rumors
Are they only rumors?
Are they only lies?

Falling out of a perfect dream
Coming out of the blue

Is it true? (Is it true?)
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you? (Was it you?)
Did you tell me
You would never leave me this way?

If you really knew me
You couldn’t do this to me
You would be my friend
If one of us is lying
There’s no use in trying
No need to pretend

Falling out of a perfect dream
Coming out of the blue

Is it true? (Is it true?)
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you? (Was it you?)
Did you tell me
You would never leave me this way?

Is it true? (Is it true?)
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you? (Was it you?)
Did you tell me
You would never leave me this way?

(Is it real? Did I dream it?)
Will I wake from this pain?
Is it true? (Is it true?)
Is it over?
Baby, did I throw it away?

Ooh… is it true?

Ordinary People as Leaders?

Seth Godin at his best. Seth shows how the Internet is changing marketing from the mass marketing model to a more human one. People joining together to form groups around specific ideas and values and lead by leaders. The new social units are an echo from the past that we know as tribes.

Seth urges us to get an idea worth following and start a movement. You can lead a movement and get other ordinary people to follow and together you can make big changes.

The Meaninglessness Of All Things…

…or the Story of Stuff.

The history of things or stuff as is develops from natural resources, production, sales, use and right until it turns into garbage or waste. The film explains in a visual way how all these things around us have their influence on society near and far and how this is all more or less hidden from the eyes of the ordinary consumer.

The Story of Stuff is a little more than 20 minutes giving a quick overview but still diving below the surface of production and consumer behavior. Here you can see the effect it has on the environment as well as the people. It could even teach you a thing or two or make you smile. Who knows - you may even see “things” differently…

Especially interesting to see how the big corporations have the politicians in their pockets - obviously something you have not just here in Iceland :)

What do you think?

The make money at home opportunities that are really interesting and well paid are sales, scheduling, writing, telemarketing, customer and recruiting services and all sorts of other professions that allow one to conduct all the activity on the Internet with maximum flexibility. Sometimes, business prefer to hire a virtual assistant rather than an employee that wouldn’t be able to cover all the secretarial and clerical demands of the job.

A huge number of people interested in taking control over their careers have discovered the opportunities presented by plenty of make money at home ideas. Most of the online jobs gravitate around freelance writing, website design, affiliate promotions, sales and even surveys.

All the best in making this a success!
