Happy Tuesday To You,
We start this week with an article that addresses something every entrepreneur must face at one time or another and that is the possibility of business failure.
I don't mean to start your day off on a down note, but it's a fact that the majority of businesses fail within the first 5 years and ignoring that possibility could be detrimental to your success.
Putting on rose colored glasses and ignoring a problem doesn't make it go away - especially when it comes to business.
Identifying a problem and creating an action plan to solve it is the key to long term business success. Details below.
Next up is a series of 9 video clips I'm making available to you free on the topic of creating and marketing information products.
There is no faster, easier, more profitable way to start a business than with info products. Watch and learn below.
Do you like mysteries? Then you'll appreciate the email I received from Derek Gehl this morning about some mysterious new project he's been secretly working on.
Derek didn't offer specifics. He just said he's working on a way that you can have a "3 inch tall mentor" stand on your desk to help you start your own online business.
To be totally honest I have no idea what he's talking about. Maybe he's cloning elves or something...
I guess we'll find out together. Details below.
This is the last week that I'll be taking responses to my Annual Subscriber Survey.
This is your opportunity to tell me what you're most interested in learning about in the coming year.
Just for taking the survey I'll put you in the running to win a copy of Ken Blanchard's excellent new book "The One Minute Entrepreneur." Details below.
As always, don't forget to check out my audio archives, video archives, articles database, and newsletter archive.
Enjoy!

The Business Failed, But Did You?
I hope that I have never given anyone the impression that having your own business is a walk in the park. To the contrary, I'm like the proverbial Chicken Little when it comes to warning readers of the obstacles and pitfalls that await those considering the entrepreneurial plunge.
To quote myself from a column I wrote earlier this year, "If it was easy, my friend, everybody would do it."
Just to make sure we're in agreement, let me reiterate the standard warnings once again.
Starting a business is incredibly hard work. It takes long hours and deep pockets.
It demands unbridled passion and unquestioned commitment.
It requires that you give of yourself until you often feel there is nothing left to give. And sometimes, even after you've done all that you can do and given all that you can give, the business fails.
How To Build Your Own Information Product Empire
Free Training Videos
I receive a lot of inquiries about creating and marketing information products.
I love info products because they are usually easy to create, quick to bring to market, and can bring in piles of cash quickly.
To help answer some of the questions you may have about creating your own information product I'm making these 9 training videos available to you free. Enjoy.
What The Heck Does Derek Have Up His Sleeve?
This morning I got a very interesting email from Internet Marketing Center CEO Derek Gehl, talking about some "groundbreaking, revolutionary project" he is working on.
It was kind of cryptic and I am still scratching my head trying to figure out exactly what the heck he is up to.
Something about putting a "3 inch tall mentor" on your desk to help you build an online business.
I'm clueless, but if I know Derek we should pay close attention because I am sure whatever he has up his sleeve will be very profitable for all of us.
