Joint Ventures – Share The Love Boys

Hi Creators!

I just launched my 4th company. After about 2 months of building it and then another 2 months of prelaunching it, I definitely have some observations to share.

AND I would LOVE to hear what you think. And please correct me if you think I am wrong–I really hope that I am.

Even with the many, many organizations that women have formed out on the Internet to empower other women, I do see a “glass ceiling” has formed.

Well known male Internet experts are partnering with each other and leaving out the women. I just got off a Seth Godin teleseminar today with a number of male powerhouses–they were inspiring but where was the female perspective.

How is it I can get a woman who has been on Oprah twice to fly across the country to speak for one of my companies, but I can’t get the over dozen or so male Internet experts I contacted to speak for My Millionaire Friends to even return my call and discuss doing a teleseminar from their home… hmmm.

Or what about the multi-millionaire I called and asked to participate at My Millionaire Friends–SHE quickly said she would love to because she wanted to reach more women with her message!

I just flipped over a book by a well known female entrepreneur and all of her testimonials were by men!

Don’t worry–I am empowered by all of this.

I think I will be renaming my new company My Millionaire Friends to My Millionaire GIRLfriends soon since the boys don’t want to come out and play anyway.

To your success,

Top Ten Marketing Insights

Did you see Robert Middleton’s Top Ten Marketing Insights?

It is a really good list.

Make sure you read them all at http://actionplan.blogs.com/weblog/2007/12/ten-year-end-ma.html

This one below is one of my favorites because this one tool is permanent and long-lasting and will open doors for you years and years after you publish. I have scheduled speakers for all of my companies based on a book that they have written. And those speaking opportunities often led to further joint venturing.

Your book is the key that helps you unlock doors and start new professional relationships and joint ventures. I witness this almost on a daily basis.

Here is Robert’s two cents…

8. A Book Creates Instant Credibility
The words author and authority come from the same root. As an author, you are seen as a person with extensive or specialized knowledge about a subject. And you are. Ever notice who’s on the radio shows and giving talks? Authors. Why not take the first steps to becoming one this coming year? You’ll have a powerful marketing tool you can use for years.

To your success,
