Case in Point: How Steve Case Achieved Success
| |
| “I focus less on looking back and more on looking forward,” says Case. “That was all interesting. It was a great journey for 20-plus years. Some ups, some downs but overall a great experience. The question now is ‘What’s the next journey? What's the next challenge?’” From selling fruit baskets in college to ranking on Forbes’ list of the wealthiest Americans, Case had come a long way to create a company that would soon become a household name and go down in history for its impact on people’s lives as well as its multi-billion dollar merger. Just how did this boy, who once dreamed of becoming a rock star, become the successful entrepreneur that he is today? |

Mary Ellen Tribby and EarlyToRise.com’s Amazing Growth Spurt from 8 million to 27 million in one year
| |
| At the recent Strategic Profits seminar I attended in Florida I got introduced to Mary Ellen Tribby of EarlyToRise.com.
EarlyToRise is owned by Agora Publishing, which in Tribby’s words is an “Idea Company” and they focus on direct marketing.
I was totally blown away when they shared their metrics with me. They have a list of 300,000 people, and they make an average of $40 per person.
Their year-to-year growth is stunning. Take a peek:
* ‘04 - 3 million
* ‘05 - 5 milliom
* ‘06 - 8 million
* ‘07 - 27 million
* ‘08 - 36 million
Notice the huge spurt from ‘06 to ‘07?
After the event I had a chance to talk to Tribby and I asked her to explain the main “mind-shifts” or “strategic shifts” that lead to that stellar growth.
Here was her response |
