As I previously blogged, coming up with a great business name is not easy. Especially now that we have to deal with other businesses from around the world that might be using the name. With the Internet, we need to think globally instead of locally. I followed up my original blog article with a 9-point […]

If you are planning an event or activity this year, you’ll want to have a look at the 2016 Australian Public Holiday and School Holiday Calendar. You often hear about value creation as a key to business (sales and marketing) success. Creating something like this calendar for your clients, friends, suppliers, creates value – quite […]
Every year, I publish a list of the top 10 blog posts for the year. Here are this year’s top picks from my collection of blogs. Take a few minutes and enjoy – the best of the best. Anyone using Social Media needs to watch this video, because THEY KNOW. This emotional Christmas commercial will […]
If you are a subscriber or regular reader of this blog, you’ll have noticed that the frequency of my blog posts has been reduced quite substantially over the past few years. I have refocused my time, effort and attention on my most elite, high performance clients – my Platinum Program Members. Since these are private […]
As you have undoubtedly seen, the financial markets are in a correction and there is considerable concern about what’s coming next. I have, over the past year, been preparing our Platinum Members to “weather the storm” and I felt I owed you at least one personal reminder (warning) about what’s coming. I have blogged about […]
Entrepreneurship Defined: Living a few years of your life like most people won’t so that you can spend the rest of your life like most people can’t.
This photo says it all. How to take an inconvenience and turn it into an advantage. It’s a classic example of antimimeticisomorphism: creating a defensible competitive advantage by doing out-of-the-ordinary things that create extra-ordinary results!
Today’s post is a collection of artworks that interact with nature is a very unique way. Click the hyperlink to be amazed by these artists’s creations!
I have a special vocabulary I have created to define Exponential Mindset Thinking principles and concepts. One of the most powerful is 20/20 Foresight – the ability to create the ultimate future (destiny) you desire. Admittedly it’s easier said than done, but not because the future is hard to predict, but because of the inertia […]
All I can say is – WOW – what an awesome video. I teach Killer Kopywriting and I will make this a must-watch component of the Pre Program Preparation for the workshop. So many lessons with captivating graphics.
What were they (not) thinking?!? Unfortunately most of the marketing mistakes people make are not this blatantly obvious. I say unfortunately because if they are not obvious, then they are not recognised for the true blunders they are. These are silent killers that erode a company’s profits often to the complete ignorance of the business […]
I just came back from a trip to North America where I met some very smart and ambitious business people. In contrast, upon my return to Australia, I came across a 19-year old squash player who wants to make it on to the professional tour who said “I don’t have a coach, I prefer to […]

Everyone wants EVERYTHING for NOTHING. AND they want all their problems solved YESTERDAY. That is the problem with the world today… It’s why it’s harder to do business. It’s just too hard to be disciplined. It’s too easy to be slack and hope something changes. The world has changed, it has spoiled “us” and has […]
We have all had them – premonitions, gut feelings, the sense that something will happen before it does, knowing something we shouldn’t well before it seems logical or sensing something happening to someone close to you that is physically far from us… Gut feelings… a sixth sense… by whatever name, intuitions can be informative. Many […]
First, I want to apologise because this blog post is quite long – but necessarily so. It’s an excerpt of an email I received from a US-based financial “advisory” firm. The story is so well told – I have chosen to make only minor edits, so bear with me and the story for the priceless […]
One of the foundational concepts of the Platinum Program we run is to develop what I call 20/20 Foresight, the ability to predict and/or manifest a beneficial future – regardless of the forces that might be at play. A recent article in BRW Magazine highlighting why baby boomer business owners may retire with nothing makes […]
I just recently purchased the first two seasons of Breaking Bad on DVD. I rarely watch TV and when I do, it’s when it suits me. Time shifting is one of the many personal productivity principles I teach. Breaking Bad is the ideal example of what happens when you adopt an emergent strategy approach without […]
If you are struggling to deliver your pre-Christmas orders, this is an approach you might want to consider… This was sent to me by Bree Robbins of Paddington Pups in Brisbane
Quite often, I come across an entrepreneur who really wants to make a change, but there is something lurking in the background preventing him or her from achieving his or her best… Usually that obstacle is an unsupportive spouse. If this is the case for you, click on the cartoon or this hyperlink to learn […]
