An Observation in Association

As one of many aspiring authors, speakers and entrepreneurs I am often amazed at how hard everyone is fighting for their little place in the world - their little piece of the pie. I am not alone as i have done this from time to time myself. In fact i spent the first 18 years of entrepreneurship thinking like most everyone else. Thinking like the lone ranger. Well, the truth is especially in the web world, the ones that band together a re the ones that we all hear about. So, here is my call to all of us out here in this cyber arena - band together and stand together. Create affiliations and enjoy the critical mass and accelerated growth curve from doing so. The trick is finding others that compliment your offerings and don;t directly compete. Sure, you'll lose a sale from time to time to that other pro in your circle but it will be far outweighed by the success you'll get. Whether it's me or someone else - do it. Create alliances.

What's your schtick? Where is it you're an expert? Talk to me. I am always looking for pros to trade back scratching. Pros that are obviously willing to work as hard as I do.

For me, I am a strategic plan and business launch expert. Not a marketing or accounting or quickbooks or radio promotions or etc. expert.
Do we have a fit, can we trade links, can we cross promote? Reach out - let's see. If not me find someone that fits with you and is actually working the system.
