Lesson #2: Even a Serious Business Needs to Be Fun
“In a word, it's fun,” says McMahon. “Every night is Saturday night for me. This isn't work. When you can entertain millions and millions of fans all over the world, that's a great sign, a great thrill, as great as it gets in business.”
Contact Oprah Winfrey
Do you have a book that would be just perfect for Oprah’s Book Club and you want to tell her about it? Do you dream of sitting on that comfy chair next to the daytime queen and discussing all your problems with her? Or do you have a great story idea that you want to pitch to the show’s producers? If you do, you’re not alone. From authors who see an appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show as their ticket to success to politicians who are trying to get the vote of her millions of viewers, the chance to contact Oprah Winfrey is becoming both fiercely competitive and prized.
Lesson #5: Success Comes Hand in Hand with Sacrifice
Many entrepreneurs are wooed into owning their own business and working for themselves because of the flexibility and freedom they anticipate going along with that. But, being an entrepreneur does not always mean being able to set your own hours, or being able to be home when you want to, or taking vacations at a moment’s notice.

His summary was “my stomach hurts.” My objective view of his business is that it’s fine – lots of things are going well – but there are plenty of issues he needs to address and they don’t necessarily have a short term time horizon for resolution.
Try Not To Be an Opportunist
You cannot cheat an honest man or woman, it just absolutely can’t be done. Yet if you watch Oprah, or any talk show; or just your local news shows, you will find daily examples of people who are “honest & hard-working” who have just been cheated or “scammed”. What’s really going on here?

The Public Relations Grand Slam
PR is a cumulative process, use what you can from each media placement and keep moving forward.

Defining Public Relations Success
Don't start a media campaign expecting a grand slam, go for the steady, slow-but constant built, yet, be prepared because grand slams do happen.
The Loneliness of the Home-based Business Person
If you are in business for yourself and working from home, you are likely to get lonely sometimes. You have no office cohorts, no company cafeteria, no water-cooler or lunchroom to hang out in and chat with folks to ease a stressful day. The evil temptations arise then...
It’s Not Net-sit, It’s Not Net-eat - It’s Net-work!
If you are in business for yourself and working from home, you are likely to get lonely sometimes. You have no office cohorts, no company cafeteria, no water-cooler or lunchroom to hang out in and chat with folks to ease a stressful day. The evil temptations arise then: somehow the refrigerator door opens of its own accord and ice cream jumps out into your bowl as if by magic.....

The Five Most Dangerous Trends In Australian Small Business Today!

Some have paid business growth gurus thousands of dollars to show them how to grow their business and increase sales; they all say they know the importance of ongoing staff training and business innovation. They attend networking events to make new contacts to grow their business. However, there is plenty of evidence to show that while Australian SME owners are talking the talk, they are not walking the walk.
Introducing Yourself from the Stage
Build It Quickly You want to show that vulnerability and build that credibility in the first 5 to 10 minutes of your talk. You don't want to take a lot of time with it, but it's absolutely critical because we buy from people that we feel connected to and trust to deliver.

Talk Shows Rule Daytime TV – Now Learn how To Book Yourself
