Resources for growing or launching your own business

If you're already in business for yourself, you can learn how you can turn your business knowledge and life experiences into cash. If you're working for someone else, did you realize you could double your corporate salary by selling your hard earned knowledge on the Internet, too?

I have learned more from Tom Antion about growing my speaking and coaching business in the last two months than I have learned in years! I've listened to him and studied his materials. He always provides a huge amount of value in the products he offers. He consistently offers lots of great tips and tricks that can be implemented immediately. I've started putting lots of his ideas to work myself. I recommend him highly.

And if you've ever dreamed of being a public speaker, but weren't sure exactly what you'd say or how you'd get started, Tom's Speaker Video is excellent!

You can visit Tom's website and learn more about him and his expertise by clicking on this link.

New directions

For the last month, I've been shifting my attention from working in the business to working on the business. I love coaching people and working with teams, but there are only so many hours in the day for be to be "face-to-face" with them, even if it's just on the phone.

The process I'm going through is remniscient of the transformation undertaken by a technology company I worked in as V.P. of H.R. That company offered a sophisticated business intelligence software that could be customized to provide a variety of solutions for an array of business problems. The executives there decided they could take the solutions they had developed for clients in specific industries and create industry-specific products that could be sold 'off the shelf' with a minimum of customization.

I've started looking for ways to convert the work I've been doing with clients over the years into tools, books and audio programs that a broader spectrum of people could benefit from. The products I'm developing will focus on conflict resolution, teambuilding, career development and fulfillment and performance improvement...for starters. Stay tuned for these new product offerings.

Over the last several weeks, I've also been learning about how to use technology (specifically email and the Internet) to connect with more people. I'll share those with you as I bring them online.
