If you do not have your 2020 business vision, what is going to happen to you, your family, your dreams, your business? Where will you be in less than 10 years from now?
Today, ‘things’ moves faster than ever before. Faster than at any other time in the history of commerce. Recent revelations and revolutions such as the internet, mobile technology and social media have ‘hit us like a freight train’ – and now we are scurring to figure it out in the hope we will keep up.
How do you keep up? How will you cope with it all? Will you be able to lead your market or will someone else lead it for you?
NOW is the time to act - to learn, to change and to lead the way and position yourself at the front of this New Economy.
At the heart of the New Economy Entrepreneur is an ‘active’ presence on Social Media sites like Facebook, Twitter, You Tube, Linked In and Digg. For most entrepreneurs and business owners, all this Social Media stuff is overwhelming to say the least for – where do you even start?
Until now, starting was the hardest part, but not any longer. You can now start with a proven, time-tested blueprint of how to get maximum outcomes and results for your business with minimum income and good leverage – that is the right way to start or restart. So I’ve created the first ever “Social Engine SuccessBlueprint” for business owners, entrepreneurs and marketers. Because, it really IS time critical to get YOUR social media success sorted out for you and your YOUR business, so you can move onwards to the Bigger Game! You must act now, there is no more time you can afford to lose.
IF YOU ARE NOT CONVINCED OF THE POWER OF SOCIAL MEDIA YET, THIS WILL SHOCK YOU …
There IS a bigger game to play, but unless you get the basics sorted, started with your Social Media Success Strategy, you’ll be screwed! Think I’m joking? … stand still and we’ll simply speed past you and your business on the Platform of a ‘not-stopping-here station’! It’s a reality that NOW is one of the most critical times EVER for Business Owners and Entrepreneurs and most are sitting and watching, wondering and taking alot of the wrong actions or no actions - they are on the wrong track.
It’s time to take Appropriate Action – it’s time to transcend the Old Economy Beliefs, Habits and Behaviors and move forward Empowered, Educated, Enlightened … and Excited into this New and Renewed Economy!
Sir Richard Branson is an Excellent example of the transcended entrepreneur – to the new economy. He has built his fortune delivering ‘old’ products and services in new wayswhile focusing on industries in which the customers were poorly served and serving them better.
Summed up perfectly by Sir Richard - the mindset of the New Economy Entrepreneur:
“I don’t think of work as work and play as play. It’s all living.”
Benjamin Franklin once said, “The harder I work, the luckier I get.” This surely holds true for Sir Richard Branson, who has worked tirelessly throughout his career. The New Economy Entrepreneur will not ever have to work as hard as Richard Branson to create enough ‘luck’ in your life – for it be fulfilled and complete if you choose to use the power of the internet and the leverage available in it.

“Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.” Bill Gates
The SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT SKILL an Entrepreneur in the New Economy must possess is ADAPTABILITY. Remember that saying, “dont forget the people you pass on the way up … because you’ll see them again on the way down” … well in the New Economy, Bill Gates got it right when he said “Be nice to Dorks (Geeks)…” … ENTER THE NEW [ECONOMY] DORK … love this, the song, the concept, all of it. Have you seen it yet? Thanks to Grasshopper.com, You gotta see it …
I’ve put the lyrics here for you too, so you can sing along the 2nd time you play it (I’ve played it a few times already today)
The New Dork
Now Im in the blogosphere, Now I’m in the twitterverse
Fans get so immersed, But I’m a nerd forever
I’m the new Zuckerberg, And since my website
I been cookin dough like a chef servin killa-bytes
Used to be the basement, Back at my mom’s place
Buildin web traffic so that we could sell an ad space
Make way for the, One man businesses
Bail outs finished with, White collar criminals
New sega genesis, Entrepreneur time
Makin big plans, To dominate the online
Yeah, I’m on YouTube, this is one man
Sharin’ google revenue, With songs on my webcam
Science is the new art, Databases day to day
Geeks spreadin’ sheet smarts, Hustle, make the data pay
I could be in Valleywag plus Geekologie
Tell from my avatar, That I’m most definitely
The New Dork,
Social networks, what dreams are made of, There’s nothing you cant do
Now you’re the New Dork
This VC money is brand new, The geek is now damn cool
Let’s hear it for new dorks, new dorks, new dorks
Catch me up in Techcrunch, Right on the homepage
Hell, I’m on Gizmodo, In a photo bout a phone craze
And Im up in Mashable, weekend trip to New York
Bar pitty, 1oak, parties full of New Dorks
Now I’m pitchin business plans, From the backs of napkins
Micro-lend to Africans, Monetize Kazakastan
Catch me up on linked-in, Dog, C.E.O.
You can see where I be, With the I.P.O.
Now I’m up in skinny jeans, Now a hipster’s lurkin’
Used to be a reject, But now I’m steady jerkin’
Now my glasses mainstream, Now the girlies eyein me
Popular kids copy me, The new swag is irony
Comin’ from the small time, Girls couldn’t find me
Now I scale models, Like I climb on top of Heidi
Start of big trends, with tweets that I pass on
You should follow me, cuz I’m friends with Ashton
The New Dork,
Social networks – what dreams are made of, There’s nothing you can’t do
Now you’re the New Dork
This V.C. money is brand new, The geek is now damn cool
Let’s hear it for new dorks, new dorks, new dorks
I’m going to let Bill Gates have the final word here … I found this list of things kids will not learn at school, that Bill Gates delivered in an address to an auditorium of school kids. I found it insightful, hope you do too:
11 things kids will not learn in school by Bill Gates
Rule 1: Life is not fair – get used to it!
Rule 2 : The world won’t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3 : You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.
Rule 4 : If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.
Rule 5 : Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.
Rule 6 : If you mess up, it’s not your parents’ fault; so don’t whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7 : Before you were born, your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent’s generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
Rule 8 : Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they’ll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9 : Life is not divided into semesters. You don’t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time..
Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.
I love Rule 11 – and so finally …
The geek is now damn cool … Let’s hear it for new dorks, new dorks, new dorks

What’s the REAL SECRET POWER OF FACEBOOK? Well you would be right if you said 1) the number of people that go there, 2) the number of connections you can make 3) the networking you can do or 4) the entertainment apps. Each one of these has something I call ‘gravitational pull’ – like gravity, they pull you towards them and make you want to stay, but they are not the Secret to viral marketing on Facebook.
Recently Nielsen Co released research showing that the ‘average’ Facebook member spends approx 7 hours and 20 minutes per month on the site. I know alot of “New Economy Entrepreneurs” spending even more time than this on Facebook.. What are they doing on there? Well probably one of the four activities I mentioned above – infact I will go so far as to say they ARE doing at least one of those activities.
All the while though, the ‘glue’ of this gravitational pull that Facebook has is the content or information that is circulated on site pages - posted on Walls, Pages and Groups, Notes, ect. Every Post made on one of these pages is fed to all your Facebook ‘friends’, so anything you do in terms of posting on Facebook is ‘reported’ to your ‘friends’ – this is known as ‘your content is fed through their (and your) News or Live Feed’.
So what is the Secret Power of Facebook for Viral Marketing - “The Game Behind the Game”? It’s simple, yet seems difficult for many people to do and will affect the results they get or not get with their content being circulated. Here’s the guideline … IF you love a ‘friend’s’ content, video, photo, note, blog, link etc. – whether it’s their original work or not …. SHARE IT WITH YOUR FRIENDS … BUT acknowledge the other person in your initial post. (Instructions below.)
—————————————————————————
SOCIAL MEDIA SUCCESS
=
BEING A SOCIAL BUTTERFLY
————————————————————————–
Viral Marketing on Social Media is one of the most effective forms of ’soft’ marketing you can find in business, a third party endorsement is the most valuable marketing you ‘cannot buy’. Your ‘friends’ will reciprocate and circulate your work when you circulate THEIR content. Support them by circulating their content – it’s how to make ‘friends’ work for you and vice versa … Viral Marketing is the Social Media WIN – WIN for you and your friends.
IF you have a problem acknowledging others, it’s time for you to realize you will not ‘make it’ in this new economy. You really want to look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself “Am I the kind of friend I want to have?”
SHARE IT, EMBRACE IT, ENJOY IT – LET THE POWER OF VIRAL SOCIAL MARKETING TAKE HOLD OF YOU TOO! … CHEERS!
Follow these simple instructions for sharing on Facebook, based on Law of Reciprocity- thanks Napoleon Hill.
To acknowledge a friend/s in a Post you are originating:
1) type the at symbol (shift 2 on your keyboard)
2) start typing your friend’s first then last name. A menu of names will load in a popup type box
3) click on the friend’s name you want to acknowledge – your friend’s name should now be hyperlink blue in your Post
4) Publish.
Your post will then go on your Wall AND your friend’s Wall (so they see you acknowledged them – they now feel more compelled to validate and circulate your work too).
PLUS Your Posts will go through your ‘friend’s feed’ – so if you did not acknowledge them, your friend will see this. AND dont delete an acknowledgement Post on your Wall after you have ‘rewarded’ a friend, that’s really tacky and shows even greater depths of lack in you!
Think about Your Behavior – and as Gandhi said it so well “Be the Change You Want to See in the World”.
Please Leave Your Comments Below, I would love to say “hello”. You are also welcome to share this blog post on any social media outlet or via email by using the “Share This” link below. Cheers
2) nominate (use) an email address you will use when you leave your blog comments
3) Add your pic. Everytime you post a comment or reply on someone else’s blog post, use the nominated email address and your pic will appear with your words- POWER-FUL!
Share this tip with your friends. Cheers and I look forward to ’seeing you’ when you comment on this blog post … soon!
…. Use an up close and personal shot, it’s NOT about being Perfect, it’s about being Personal … and in the New Economy, people want to connect with you personally, before and after they buy your product.

Social Media is a Game Changer, especially for small business owners, but do you REALLY know why? There is a ‘Game Behind the Game’ – and it’s being played by Forward-thinking Entrepreneurs who will lead their industry in this 2nd decade … and beyond.
Social Media has brought business owners out of isolation and into community. Friendships are being formed and fun is being had by all … BUT … it is NOT the fun and frivolity, it’s not the market reach, it’s not the fame building and it’s not even the conversation and community that makes Social Media a Game Changer … IT IS THIS …. it is COLLABORATION! Collaboration of minds with a common purpose to solve a problem and assist a person to move forward.
Dr Napoleon Hill, author ‘Law of Success’ and ‘Think and Grow Rich’ assessed and taught the power of Masterminds for business people nearly 100 years ago. Today, his principles and process are being used by solo entrepreneurs and small business owners to move forward faster and easier than ever before.
Hill describes the power of the Mastermind as: “The Principle of What You Can Accomplish In One Year, using the Mastermind, is More Than You Can Accomplish in a Lifetime, if you depended entirely upon your own efforts for success.”
Napoleon Hill also says “Borrow and use the education, experience, influence and perhaps even the capital of other people to carry out your own plans in life.” In collaborating with a Mastermind, you can build your business and the business of co-masterminders but more importantly, you can drop the barriers of competitiveness and secretiveness and build trust and collaborations that propel all members. Here Napoleon Hill further explains the nature and facts of the Mastermind that any entrepreneur in any business - include entertainers can use this powerful format for greater, quicker success:
During his presentation, Dr Hill talks about Kate Smith - a singer you may never have heard of (died in the 70s). She could barely pay the rent from her performances, until she discovered the power of the mastermind … to collaborate and gain support so she could move forward quicker and easier than ever before with the help of Ted Collins. She was reported as earning over $30 million dollars, that’s alot of money today, let alone 80 years ago! (A true leader for all entrepreneu, especially female ones to follow.)
Husband and wives, like Henry Ford and his wife can Mastermind to move each other forward faster. It was Mrs Ford that inspired Henry to move forward in creating his ‘horseless carriage contraption”.
TO BEGIN YOUR OWN MASTERMIND, here’s the guidelines from Napoleon Hill:
1) Decide definitely where you wish to be and what you wish to be doing during the next 3 years
2) Decide how much money you desire to be making and what you are going to do to earn it.
3) Form a Mastermind alliance with at least one person in your immediate family and at least one other person among those to whom you are selling your services.
4) Heed Napoleon Hill’s advice about your Positive Mental Attitude – the one and ONLY thing over which you have total control!
Success is something that has to be planned and Success is something that has to be earned in advance.
“Success is the knowledge with which to get whatever you want in life from life without violating the rights of others AND by helping others to attain it.”
I have began Masterminds both online and offline for business owners that want to Lead, Achieve and Believe – Lead their Community in your business, Achieve break-through results for yourself and your clients and that you Believe in the power of the mind and heart to affect your hip pocket.

Wondering how effective I am as a Collaborator and Masterminder? Recent feedback (January 2010)
CHEN TAY OF www.ChenTay.com says: “Jennie, thanks for your contribution today. Your ability to cut through the clutter and deliver your message with love straight from the heart is greatly appreciated. You are a leader and we thank you for it!”
GULLIVER (Thor Sales WarLord) says: “OMG! The plumbers daughter from Altona breaks hearts and wins minds whenever and wherever I see her, what an INCREDIBLE day, thank you SO much for your ULTRA valuable distinctions – you made me a LOT of money today… Seeing someone years ahead of where I am – GIVING BACK with NO thought of gain, and giving SUCH pearls… Humbling. Awesome.”
Corinne Maunder says: “Hey jennie, well i’ve been thinking what I can write to you that will truly let you know how much I appreciate your advice and caring words during Saturdays mastermind. But I’m a little stuck for the right words. Thank you just doesn’t seem enough! You really have a way about you. I felt so comfortable sharing ideas and problems with you because you made me feel so at ease. Thank you for your honesty when answering my tricky questions. I appreciate that so much. I’m so excited about the future and can’t wait to see you again soon. X”
Stacey Currie says: “Jennie I only met you yesterday attending Chen’s awesome mastermind group but man you are one knowledgeable women. The stuff I learnt from you yesterday in one day was unreal imagine a weekend!! You had so much input and so much to offer on every single topic. You are one smart business chick and I can’t wait to catch up again.”
Tony Skinner says: “Hey Jen, you are awesome! Your depth of knowledge, insight and ability to provide clarity to all on the day were amazing, thank you, I couldn’t get enough.”
Nathan Hulls says: ”Jennie thank you so much for everything you had to contribute yesterday at our business leaders mastermind. You have some serious value, wisdom and experience to contribute. I count it a privilege to count you as a friend on facebook and in real life. Looking forward to catching up again soon! Keep in the love! Nath”
Tracey Habron says: “The mastermind yesterday was inspirational. The contribution of everyone made it really worthwhile. Not an ego in sight! Everyone contributed but Jennie, you have a level of contribution that surpasses most people. It doesn’t mean theirs is any less worthwhile, it is just that your experience means you can contribute m…ore and your generosity means that that you do. Your handling of sensitive ‘turn off the recorder’ moments was something to which I can only aspire!”
