You Can Be an Author in 30-60 Days

What if we told you that within thirty to sixty days that you could be a published author of a full length book? You probably think that we were joking. But we are not!

What if I told you that there was course that will take you step-by-step through the research, writing, publishing, and marketing of your book?  Would you be up for the challenge?

That's our latest challenge to you! To write a book in 30-60 days.  Just think you could be a published author by Thanksgiving!

What is Your Message

We are Dexter and Pamela Montgomery, the owners of My Biz Dream Team. We are a married couple and business partners. We are also published authors. We found out several years ago that writing a book on your  topic can increase your visibility and grow your business

We understand what it is like to have a fabulous message to share with the world and then to have difficulty reaching those who would benefit most from what you have to offer.  We discovered that writing a book, “The Book on Investing,”  allows us to reach our ideal client in a much more powerful way.  Engaging with our audience with a full length written book gave us credibility and authority.  We saw our business grow as we attracted more and more clients.  You can purchase a copy of the book at: http://mybizdreamteams.com/thebookoninvesting .

Content Marketing for Entrepreneurs: What's Your Goal?

Content marketing for entrepreneurs is key to building a successful business.  As an entrepreneur, you must be sure that the content that you create is doing the job.

The question is, how will it build your business? What’s the goal for your content? When you’re creating your content strategy you want to keep a few things in mind.

  • You want to make sure that your content supports your long-term vision and mission.
  • You want to make sure that your content puts your audience first. What value are you providing and how are you helping?
  • You want to make sure each piece of content supports a larger goal.

Let’s explore a few of the different  goals you may have for your content.

Content Marketing Establishes Credibility, Authority, and Trust

First, your content should position you as the trusted expert in your niche. By providing value and creating content that benefits your audience and helps them solve a key problem, you earn their trust. They’ll be more likely to return to your site, buy products and services, and recommend you to a friend.

Content Marketing Builds Your List

Second, the content that you put in your email is another type of marketing that you should embrace. You can use this type of content to help build your email list. Create outstanding content that motivates readers to want more. Create an opt-in offer that motivates prospects to sign up for your email list.

Content Marketing Builds Awareness and Branding

Third, your content marketing can spread to a large audience and help build awareness for you and your business offerings. Content can also enhance your brand personality and brand voice to help strengthen recognition.

Content Marketing Generates Sales

Fourth, your content marketing should generate sales for you. Customer conversion is often a focal point of any content marketing strategy. You can use your content to (1) convert prospects to customers; (2) promote affiliate programs; or (3) drive traffic to a sales page on your website.

Conclusion

Content marketing has many goals. Content marketing can be used to:

(1) establish your credibility;

(2) build your list;

(3) build awareness and branding;

(4) generate sales.

 

This is just a short list of goals. You can use content marketing to promote conversations and engagement with your audience. You can use it to drive organic search engine traffic, and to educate your customer. So start to think about the goals of your content marketing.

At My Biz Dream Team, we can show you how to develop an internet lifestyle business that can help you reach your money goals. Check out The Strategic Pathway to Success Program™. Let us show you how to reach your goal of creating a lifestyle and a business that you love!

Determination: 3 – Part Strategy for Success

 

Determination: Don't Stop Now!

Determination: Don't Stop Now!

Determination: 3 – Part Strategy for Success

Determination is an important characteristic of a successful and prosperous entrepreneur or small business owner.

Determination is defined as, “firmness of purpose; resolve.”  As an entrepreneur or small business owner your determination is tested daily. 

When your client does not show up for an appointment you wonder if it is it really worth it. If  your assistant forgets to give you an important message you wonder if one more thing could possibly go wrong!

But to be successful, you must show determination and remain firm in your desire for your business

This post discusses three key strategies that Dexter and I, and other successful entrepreneurs find to be helpful in maintaining our determination to succeed and prosper.

1. Remember Your Why

Determination can wither without a strong enough reason to continue.  As an entrepreneur or small business owner you must remind yourself of why are you in business.  You need to go beyond the surface reason:  To make money! 

There are easier ways to make money than starting a business.  So dig deep and remember that vision you had for your business.  Remember the passion that you had for your clients that you wanted to serve.  Remember the legacy that you wanted to leave for your family.  When your determination starts to falter, you need to remember your WHY!  Your WHY will give you the courage, strength, and determination to continue.  

2. Learn from Your Mistakes

You will need determination when you fail to deliver a product on time or your meeting just did not go well.

Now you can’t quit, but rather learn from what went wrong.  A successful business owner does not quit when things don’t quite right. You figure out what went wrong, adjust, and then adapt.

Your ability to think, be flexible, and resilient will serve you in the long run.  You have to keep moving.

I remember missing the deadline to our editor for our first book.  We were devastated because we had committed to having it done in 10 weeks.  Instead, it took us 6 months.  We were determined not to give up.  We had some technical difficulty with the recording device, made the correction, and completed the book. We were overjoyed at the accomplishment.  

If we had lost our determination, we would have missed the opportunity to share our strategies with hundreds of other entrepreneurs. Our success was right around the corner.

3. Focus on What is Really Important

Your determination may falter when the bills begin to pile up and yet you see no income. 

You begin to wonder if the sacrifices in time, money, self-esteem are worth it. After all you have been successful in other areas of life. Why doesn’t this seem to be working?

Your self-image is on the line!  I can understand!

That is when you have to dig deep within yourself and focus on what is most important right now!

Take one little step on a key priority to gain momentum.  Then another and another!    

Keep moving ahead no matter what. Make a phone call. Write one paragraph. Delegate a task to your team.

Get something done right now!  You will eventually  develop those habits of determination that will serve to make you a successful entrepreneur.

 Conclusion

As you can see, determination is a key trait of a successful and prosperous entrepreneur.

This trait that can be developed by (1) remembering why you are in business; (2) learning from your mistakes; and (3) focusing on what is really important. 

Sometimes everything seems to go wrong and you are tempted to quit.

But remember, your success could be right around the corner. So remember to take action each day on your business.

By following these three strategies you can develop the habits of determination that will propel your success and prosperity.

Learn to Build Your Business Dream Team

Building Your Business Dream Team!

Build Your Business Dream Team and Have More Fun!

Watch Rescue Impossible, Nightmare Hell!

You can learn important lessons about building a business dream team from watching reality television. Some of our favorite television shows are Kitchen Nightmares, Hell’s Kitchen, Bar Rescue and Hotel Impossible. These shows are so popular because people like us enjoy all the drama. Some of these businesses are on the verge of failure. Then experts like Chef Gordon Ramsay come in and save the day.  Although these shows are very entertaining, they also teach us some important lessons on business: You need to work on your business instead of in your business. Otherwise you have a job rather than a business.

Important Business Lessons

Most of the entrepreneurs and business owners on these shows suffer from the typical bad business disease. They try to do everything themselves. On one recent episode of Kitchen Nightmares, the restaurant owner was the manager, the chef, the accountant, the cleaning person, and the host. No wonder, his business was failing! He was trying to do everything and ended up not being good at anything.   

The business owner had not learned to delegate! He did not have a team.We had the same problem when we started our business. We  quickly learned from our mistakes. Now we have the time and money to enjoy the fruits of our success. For example, we can enjoy eating lunch at Chef Gordon Ramsay’s restaurant in Las Vegas! Our business continues to operate when we are not there because of “The Business Dream Team™” we have put in place. 

Build a Business Dream Team

Learning to build a dynamic business dream team is the difference between having your business run on automatic pilot and having your business require you to be there to run it.  When we learned the secrets of how to build “The Business Dream Team™” our business took off like a rocket.  We can now spend more time on marketing and building our business while enjoying the fruits of our success.

In an effort to help our clients achieve greater levels of success, we decided to create a program to show other business owners how to build a dynamic business dream team. The program is called,The Ultimate Guide to Building Your Business Dream Team™” .  

Conclusion

As you can see, these reality programs can teach an entrepreneur invaluable lessons about the importance of building a business dream team. It is necessary for your success to build a business dream team. Delegating certain tasks not only makes you more productive, it multiplies your success. If want to build a business and not give yourself  job, building a business dream team and learning to delegate is essential.

So don’t work in your business, build strong relationships, and learn to delegate to your team. Then you can start to see results, make your business even more successful, and create the life of your dreams!

Delegate to Your Business Dream Team to Multiply Your Success

Multiply Your Success: Learn to Delegate!

Multiply Your Success: Learn to Delegate!

Delegate to Your Business Dream Team to Multiply Your Success

To multiply your business success, you must learn to delegate to your business dream team. As an entrepreneur or small business owner you may be accustomed to working on your own. You may not recognize that you are the leader and part of a team.  But you are! Our research of entrepreneurs has shown that those who understand that they should focus on what they do best and delegate the rest are the most successful.  So you must ask yourself, “What do I do best”? “Is this the best use of my time”?

Make a Master List

 First, make a master list of all your tasks for your business.  List them all out.  You may be surprised by the size of the list. Then number each task from one to five depending on how good you are at accomplishing it.  Be honest! Your business may be more complicated than you realized. Include the items that you have delegated to your team.

Do Only What You Do Best

Second, you should keep only the tasks that are numbered 4 or above.  Those are the items in which you excel.  When you are doing those things you are in the zone. Everything is flowing.  You then delegate the rest!  Find someone else who enjoys and is better at the other items on the list.  You may need to hire a virtual assistant or other outside expert if you are working alone.

Let It Go!

Third, you must follow through on your intention to delegate.  You must let it go! Sometimes that is the hardest part. You may believe that you are the only one who can do it! After so many years of doing everything, it is difficult to give up control.  But the benefits of giving up control are tremendous! Delegation allows you not only greater productivity. Delegation allow you to multiply the span and scope of your business.

Conclusion/Call to Action

 As you see, to be successful you should focus on what you do best and delegate the rest! Start with your master list of tasks. Number those tasks from one to five depending on how good you are at doing it. Delegate everything that is 3 or below. That means you may need to hire a virtual assistant or other outside expert. As in most things in business, follow through is important.  Once you have determined to delegate a task or function in your business, remember to let it go! You will find that you have multiplied your productivity.
