Here we are again, back at the mall. We have come a long way; we have negotiated a great deal from the mall for our kiosk, on a month to month basis. We are all set up and have now hired and trained a few employees. We have had all of our employees sign our [...]

I have one final thought on negotiating that I would like to share with you before we move on. I was watching the reality show True Beauty a couple of weeks ago. I know it’s sad but what can I say, I got hooked. In the segment the contestants were divided into groups of three [...]

Last week we met with the leasing agent at the mall and filled out our application for a kiosk. Let’s pretend that we heard back from the mall and our application has been approved. Yippee! Now we will begin asking for the sun and the moon before we sign the final contract. Let the leasing [...]

Today is Thanksgiving Day and I imagine everyone is busy eating.  Me too, I wrote this earlier. I just want to let you know that I am thankful for you, our customer.  I was so impressed when I was reading the Forum to get the material for the Opportunity Knocks ebook. Many of you reached [...]

I want to get you a little excited about the new product we are going to be offering through the Master Program.  I am more than a little excited myself; I am blown away by the product. Let me share my reasons for all the excitement.  I have seen the product develop from the mustard [...]
