Help for Haiti Just Takes a Text Message

January 19th, 2010 -- Posted in Carbon Copy Pro, Charities I Support, Misc Ranting | 1 Comment »

Yesterday, Jay Kubassek of CarbonCopyPro sent me this message and video clip letting me know about a creative way the Red Cross has set up to donate easily to the Haiti relief fund.  All it takes is a text message from you…. it only costs $10, and it is charged to your cell bill.  How easy is that?  Please watch the video for more details.  Also, a BIG thank you to Jay & Aaron of Carbon Copy Pro – they donated $5000 to the support effort! These guys are amazing!

It just takes all of us making a little difference that will add up in a big way…. if you can, please help.

Until next time, J.

Ronnie Rhino – Children's Books

As you know, I am always looking for ways to better myself  and add to my  library.  In fact, I am always on the look out for new and exciting authors.  In the past, I have shared with you many programs, courses and books revolving around personal development so that we can all grow together.  However, what I am about to show you is NOT for you …it is for your children, grandchildren or any child that you love.

Let me introduce you to Liz Parkinson. She is not an industry Guru. In fact you have probably never heard of her before. That is because she is the wife of one of the best known marketers in the world. She has always been the one truly controlling things from behind the scenes. Liz felt that the most important thing she could do was help parents develop strong, successful, empowered children. She felt that if they started continue reading »

What is Leadership These Days?

Carbon Copy Pro, CCPro, Carbon CopyPro, it’s written all kinds of ways, and regardless of how ~ it’s all the same ~ it’s about Leadership .  A fast growing educational company which targets Internet marketing with integrity, honesty, plus a lot of fun!

I recently attended the Wealth Masters Int’l (WMI) M2 conference and the CCPro event piggy backed onto it, adding one more day.  This was a brilliant idea as it allowed attendees to save on multiple trips, travel costs, etc. The material presented was phenomenal (again).  The next generation of Web 2.0 marketing was reviewed by speakers such as:

Natalie Stahl unveiled the new training programs in the back office that now take into consideration those who are building their business part time. (Of course they apply to those who are full time as well!)  There are multiple outsourcing options to leverage your time, and incredibly strong step by step trainings for the beginning marketer, intermediate, and beyond levels.

The co-founders Aaron Parkinson and Jay Kubassek were visibly humbled when talking about the explosive growth of the company this past year.  They really spoke from the heart and I saw a new level of maturity as they’ve grown (not just the company) through the process. They are positioning Carbon CopyPro as an incubator for tomorrow’s leaders and entrepreneurs .  The team is motivated, creative, talented, and I can’t think of another group I’d rather be aligned with!

Who are some of the “leaders” you admire, and why…. :-)

Until next time,  J.

Livescribe Pulse Pen Taking Your Business to the Next Level

March 16th, 2009 -- Posted in Another Welcomed Weekend, Home Business Ideas, Misc Ranting, Time Management, Wealth Strategies, personal development | 4 Comments »

Last week was a blur with business activities, classes and preparing for my Mastermind Group which consisted of 3 days away sharing marketing strategies, business goals and objectives, as well as tips & tricks.  Much of the time was spent on being exposed to some of the “new” technologies (for me anyway…..) that may be used to not only stay ahead of the curve, but to also assist with streamlining certain business tasks potentially taking your business to the next level.

One of my favorites was the Livescribe Pulse Smartpen.  While this is marketed predominately to students and journalists, those of us who attend live events, trainings and seminars will benefit from it as well.  A couple of the key features are:

  • You can transfer digital copies of your notes directly to your computer;
  • While you are taking handwritten notes you can record what is being said at the same time;
  • You have the ability to replay any of the recordings by clicking on a word and it will “find” the associated audio;
  • You can share notes and collaborate with others online by loading both the handwritten notes and audio

Take a look at this short video which explains the features and benefits of this pen in more detail, as I barely scratched the surface…..

There have been numerous reviews of the pen over the last 6 months, including those which can be found at continue reading »
