Richard Wall here… with a little oversight. I published the January 2010 issue of my Residual Magic newsletter and forgot to update my blog accordingly – what a plonker!
If you are an Interim Manager, consultant or anyone looking for another income stream or if you just want to learn how to promote your existing business on the Internet you will find some real nuggets in this edition – even if it is just one of the ‘Quotes of the Month”. This one by Mike Dillard is very timely:
“I couldn’t be more excited about this economic upheaval, because times of great change, are times of great opportunity.” Mike Dillard
There’s also a link to a very good 10 minute video by Lee Brower. If you are wondering why inherited wealth often doesn’t survive down the generations Lee has the answer… and a very practical piece of advice for every household:
The economy might have bottomed out (I don’t think so by the way) – and although I agree with Mike Dillard in that for many of us these are exciting times, for a lot of people 2010 is going to be very tough and very stressful. Since I wrote the newsletter I saw that author Dan Kennedy has a new book coming out… I certainly agree with his main message:
“There’s no denying it: the old economy is shattered, and GONE FOREVER. It’s never coming back as it was, and in its place a generally tougher, more demanding marketplace is emerging.”Dan Kennedy

In the New Economy more and more of us are looking to change career or at least supplement our income. Maybe you are an ex professional like me who have lots of talent and experience but you are ‘over the hill’ to get a job, or maybe at the other end of the scale you’ve just left school with good A grades or university with a good degree and you can’t get a job. A gap year is a great idea but what happens after that?
There is an alternative to getting a ‘JOB’ (Just Over Broke or Jump Out of Bed?)
The Internet is where all the excitement seems to be: the thought of setting up a website and then sitting back and watching the money roll in is very appealing. Or maybe multi level marketing (MLM) is the answer? MLM doesn’t have to be just about selling pills, potions and lotions to your friends… you can also sell them intruder alarms, water filters and healthy chocolate
I’ve been around the MLM industry for a number of years… it can and does work. Spectacularly well in some cases. However, for most of us there is still a ‘Cringe Factor’: trying to make money from your friends with overpriced and/or embarrassing products. Even worse… how do you get over the problem of trying to sell someone on a ‘great millionaire opportunity’ when you have been involved for a few months and they ask the dreaded question “how much are you earning?” Well, I picked up some advice in my early days of MLM – this video might give you a few ideas.
