Your Business Foundation and Credibility

Here is another excellent article written by Kim Klaver. This is not only great advice and direction for the new person starting their business but it is also a way to evaluate the true nature and focus of the company you are representing. Do they offer a product that has an end-consumer appeal and marketability that drives the enterprise? - or - Do they rely most heavily on the recruiting process?

But I haven't made anything yet!
It's always easier to get someone's attention when you are making good money. It's immediate validation that on the surface at least, your deal is working.

Since most people aren't making much, and certainly nothing at the beginning, what can you do or say to get a high quality builder-type to come look so they can catch that 'vision' of the big money?

Some possibilities:

1. Get those 100 customers
first, a great way to validate your business to any entrepreneur. They'll see that people other than those selling it, use it. Can you say that for your company?

AOL went after 'just' customers, and now look. 30 million. (Oh say - has anyone from AOL (or your cable TV service, whatever you're using) ever called you to nag you to sell their service?)

Committed to results?

Idiscovered Bill Caskey while he hosted a Saturday morning radio show on an Indianapolis talk station. Through Bill's show, I was turned on to David Allen (Getting Things Done) and Larry Winget (Pit Bull of Personal Development). I count myself among the fortunate listeners that were able to receive a copy of his book, "Same Game, New Rules" as well as a couple of CD programs he made available.
Since then, Bill has moved into the area of blogging and podcasting. Here's a snip from his blog. Check out his podcast as well.

Bill Caskey -

If your results aren't where you think they could be, then maybe you aren't committed. (I ask myself that everyday since I believe that what shows up in our life is exactly what we are committed to). Dubner and Levitt will tell you that you haven't practiced enough, haven't worked hard enough, haven't set the right goals, haven't gotten enough coaching and feedback. Read more.
