Want to know what 50 Entrepreneurs Know?


Happy New Year!

What an interesting ride we are all having together. I have been doing so much private writing and creating that I have been neglecting my blog and networks a bit, but much is coalescing and I am confident the best is yet to come….

Many of you have asked about my 2-day course for the University of Wisconsin, interested but unable to make the class. It is available as a custom inhouse offer, and will also be offered again May 19-20, 2009 in Milwaukee.

In the meantime, I wanted to extend an invitation to an extraordinary evening! This is a unique event because yours truly is featured in the book! If you conduct a series of 50 interviews with experts in a specific field, will it change your life? Brian Schwartz believes it will.

After going through this process himself, he is so convinced about its effectiveness that he wrote a book about it and is now building a business around it. Brian Schwartz, the author of 50 Interviews: Entrepreneurs has interviewed 50 entrepreneurs about their challenges as well as their rewards. He got advice from people who stood in his shoes, felt the same fears, and went through the same challenges.

On January 19, 2009, Brian Schwartz will be demonstrating the process used to create 50 Interviews: Entrepreneurs by interviewing a panel of entrepreneurs unscripted & LIVE during Startup Junkie Underground, a monthly series hosted by The DaVinci Institute in the Denver area (Westminster, for us Colorado folks). https:www.davinciinstitute.com

Brian will also share the truths and insights he uncovered upon interviewing over 50 entrepreneurs. The intent of 50 interviews is NOT to simply offer another book of useful advice (although it is full of useful real-world wisdom). There’s already an ample supply of books that provide all the self-help tidbits you will ever need (in fact, you will get a list of recommendations from the interviewees themselves). Rather 50 Interviews serves as a catalyst for the reader to discover his or her own answers, as we often learn the most about ourselves through observing others. The compilation of over 50 interviews offers the reader endless opportunities to observe skilled, successful, and fulfilled individuals to discover something new about their own life. The framework is one that anyone can apply immediately to immerse themselves in practically any passion.

Every interview was conducted in 2008, and many of the names will be familiar to you, so the content will be highly relevant and applicable. The cost of the event is $25 if you are not already a member of the DaVinci Institute, and will include a $10 credit for all attendees towards the purchase of the book. In the meantime, if you’re not in Colorado or can’t attend, but are intrigued…. you can join the 50 Interviews community on: Facebook Linked In Twitter Happy new year! Let’s make 2009 the best one yet.

Hiring Myself as my own Coach


I spent time on the telphone with Rick Schefrin yesterday, interviewing him for my upcoming e-book series and as research for my next tool box for the Virtual Entrepreneur. As we chatted and explored, I realized how much I have to learn from him! He does for virtual entrepreneurs what I do for my virtual and F2F business clients. Yet I found myself wanting to hire him to help me! I realize I’m the cobbler with barefoot kids running around. I realize that I’m working much harder than I need to. I realize that if I were my own coach, I would be running my business much differently.

So…. I’m hiring myself as my own coach, and will be keeping myself – and you – posted on how that goes! Anyone want to do the same in solidarity? Let me know; I’d love to keep ourselves honest to the commitment together!
